Abstract. The sound insulation of walls made of different building materials was tested in
various places from Tikrit University in Iraq, with a number of up to 14 walls, distributed in
the Department of Environmental Engineering, the Department of Civil Engineering and
Chemical Engineering, the Deanship of the College of Arts, the College of Education, the
College of Arts, the Department of Psychology, and the Deanship of the College of Computer.
It was found through the results that the highest value of sound insulation was obtained for the
wall of sequence 13, which amounted to 44.86 dB, but it is for a wall built of thermiston
material, and this indicates that thermiston gave the greatest value for sound insulation. The
study showed that there are building materials for other walls that can give excellent sound
insulation, which is a material republican bricks covered with wood and walls built of
sandwich material with a thickness of 10 cm and walls concrete coated with PVC, as well as
sandwich walls with a thickness of 7 cm, reaching. The highest values for the rest of the sound
insulation results for the top five values were (38.6, 38.43, 37.13, 34, 33.76) dB decibel. The
results showed that the perforated brick is no doubt excellent sound insulation and proof of that
all the walls built of perforated bricks provided insulation Excellent sound with the rest of the
additional isolators used. The study also showed that for the walls of the sandwich panels, with
the increase in thickness, the value of sound insulation increases. Where the value of sound
insulation (38.43 dB, 34 dB and 30.36 dB) for walls with thickness (10cm, 7cm and 5cm)
respectively. Finally, it is important to mention that the lowest value of the measured sound
insulation for measured walls was 23.23 decibels, but for a brick wall from the outside of the
squirt spreading cement and from the inside with plaster and borax in the College of
Engineering - Department of Environmental Engineering building.

1. Introduction
Sound insulation is one of the important design criteria in buildings because of this property's direct
impact on human comfort, and it has been noticed recently that there is great interest in reducing the
impact of noise sources resulting from the increase in means of transportation and the use of
mechanical equipment in power generation [1] and that noise has effects Many and dangerous to
human health, as they cause serious diseases, including permanent or temporary hearing loss, chronic

high blood pressure and stroke, especially when exposed to a sudden high level of noise [2]. Sound is
absorbed through the air, walls, ceilings, floors, furniture and people. The amount of sound absorbed,
polished, smooth, solid and impermeable materials are heavy in weight, so their sound absorption is
less than materials with rough, porous surfaces and light weight plastic [3].
Sound insulation can be defined as controlling the level of noise reaching one of the rooms from the
other rooms or from outside to inside, where the sound is transmitted from one room to another
through the sound generated in the air through the walls [2]. Another definition of sound insulation is
that it is a group of The methods and methods used in order to reduce the intensity of the sounds
affecting the buildings. This mechanism is done by using a group of materials, knowing that sound
insulation has been included in many building plans to reduce noise and disturbance in industrial
environments or offices and homes [4]. The effect of sound pollution can be summed up by:
1. Impact on hearing: Hearing loss is considered one of the immediate and acute effects of sound
pollution on humans, as continuous and long periods of exposure to noise may damage the
eardrum and thus cause permanent hearing loss.
2. Impact on public health: Sound pollution causes many harmful health effects, most notably:
anxiety, stress, headaches, nervousness, in addition to the constant feeling of fatigue, thus
reducing productivity and work efficiency, which may lead to serious consequences over time
[5].
It is a requirement for sound insulation, improves insulation as the mass of the insulating material
increases, no openings as openings in the walls reduce insulation and Intermittent or multiple
constructions such as double windows.The researcher [6] indicated that to find the efficiency of sound
insulation in buildings, the insulation is calculated for a frequency of 200 Hz and then for a frequency
of 1000 Hz, and the sound insulation should not be less than 40 decibels for both cases. The researcher
[7] showed that buildings that contain pores make the movement of air through them possible and
increase sound absorption by converting sound energy into heat by friction. He also stressed that the
presence of gaps also affects the relationship between sound insulation and the density of the cutter, as
the gap increases the sound insulation. The researcher [8] studied the acoustic insulation of Reed-
Cement Boards using a practical device, and its results were compared using glass panels with data
from previous research, and the difference did not exceed (3) decibel dB . The researchers [9] studied
the sound insulation test for a group of concrete models and added three materials to the concrete in
different proportions for each model to improve the sound insulation property of the concrete. These
materials are rubber (rubber) and two types of stones, namely (lapillus) and ( pumice), and they
concluded that increasing the proportion of stones, i.e. the following materials (lapillus) and (pumice)
leads to an increase in sound insulation and a significant increase in the sound transmission loss of
concrete for all frequencies . The researchers concluded [10] that the sound design has an influential
necessity in the design act, especially when designing specialized halls, and that neglecting this aspect
in the design leads to the lack of sound in most of the built halls, especially classrooms, and there are
factors that affect the sound level and its frequency, including noise sources. And the acoustic
properties of the materials for walls and ceilings. The researchers [11] showed that noise has many and
dangerous effects on human health, as it causes serious diseases, including permanent and temporary
hearing loss, chronic high blood pressure and stroke, especially when exposed to a sudden and high
level of noise, such as explosions, and sometimes leads to death.

2.3. Standard Noise Levels
Noise levels are very important in determining the measurement of acoustic insulation of walls in
terms of the appropriateness of the insulation and its acceptability in accordance with international
standards and laws [`12].

The values that will be obtained from the field work of this study are checked in table (2) and table
(3), and the noise whose values will be recorded are classified compared to the above tables.
2.4. Measuring Method
1. Measure the intensity of sound passing through the wall using a sound intensity meter in decibel
dB.
2. Two devices are used to measure the intensity of sound of one type at the same time.
The two devices are placed on both sides of the wall with a known distance of one and a half meters.
A fixed sound is cast to all walls using a manufactured device that is placed half a meter from the wall
to be measured. The sound intensity is recorded in decibels using two sound intensity meters at the
same time. The sound-emitting device is made of iron and has a weight. The weight is dropped
vertically, freely at a known fixed height, about 85 cm, on an iron plate attached to the device and to
all the walls. Three readings were taken for each device and each site, and then the average of these
readings was taken, and the same method was applied to the other device on the other side at the same
time, and with two devices for measuring the intensity of sound, the number of readings taken for one
wall becomes equal to six readings. Figure (3) shows a simplified diagram of the method of measuring
the sound insulation of walls, while figure (4) shows a picture of measuring the sound insulation of
walls in the College of Education - classroom in the department of psychology.

3.2. Method Used to Calculate Sound Insulation
According to the results obtained in table (3) above, the method of calculating the sound insulation in
decibels rather than dB is represented by the product of subtracting the rate of the first reading from
the rate of the second reading and the result represents the sound insulation provided by the wall in
ISAESC-2022

decibels rather than dB, and the following is a model for calculating the sound insulation for wall with
serial number 1
(Sound insulation) of the wall sequence 1 = rate of first reading - rate of second reading
(Sound insulation) of the wall sequence 1 = 108.7 – 70.1 = 38.6 dB
Figure 4. Shows A picture to measure the sound insulation of walls in one of the classrooms in the
College of Education with the reading of the device.
Figure 5. Pictures showing the measurement of the sound insulation of walls of ready-made concrete
in the Department of Chemical Engineering.
3.3. Discuss the Results in A general Way
From observing the results obtained and shown in Table (4), it is clear that the highest value of sound
insulation was obtained for the wall of sequence 13, which amounted to 44.86 dB, but by reference to
the same table (4) it appears that the type of the measured wall is a wall of thermiston material,
finished from the outside with cement, and from the inside with plaster and borax material. This

indicates that thermiston gave the highest value for sound insulation, and this leads to that this material
is characterized by providing high sound insulation.
Some other important results for the Sound insulation values that obtained and clarified in table (4)
were equal to (38.6, 38.43, 37.13, 34, 33.76) and these values represent the walls of the sequence (1,
11, 12, 14, 8). ) respectively in the table (4), and the six highest values obtained for the sound
insulation of the walls can be represented in the following table (5) .

In table (5), it is clear that the wall sheathed with wood gave the second highest value for sound
insulation, as it was equal to (38.6) dB. This indicates that wood material is an excellent sound
insulation material.
The third largest value of acoustic insulation was for a wall made of sandwich panel, where the value
of the acoustic insulation was (38.43) dB. This is conclusive evidence that the sandwich panel can
provide very good sound insulation. The highest value of sound insulation in the fourth sequence was
for a wall made of republican bricks coated on one side with wood material, where the sound
insulation value reached (37.13) dB, and this is further evidence that wood material can provide
excellent sound insulation as it was the second highest value Also for a wall sheathed with wood, but
for two sides. The fifth highest value was for a wall of sandwich with a thickness of 7 cm, which was
equal to (34) dB. The last value, which is the sixth in table (5), was for a ready-made concrete wall
covered with PVC on one side, where the sound insulation value was (33.76) dB, but this leads to the
fact that plastic can provide very good sound insulation for the wall coated with it. The six highest
values of sound insulation were selected in table (5), and it is possible that perforated bricks are
undoubtedly an excellent sound insulator, and the evidence for this is that all walls built of perforated
bricks provided excellent sound insulation results with the rest of the additional insulators used.
3.4. Discussion of the Results of Acoustic Insulation of Sandwich Panels Walls
The measurements were made for the walls of the sandwich panel material. Table (4) shows the rates
of sound insulation values for the types of sandwich panels that were obtained.

Figure 6. Values of sound insulation of sandwich panels walls.
It is clear from figure (6) that the highest average value of the sound insulation values for the types of
sandwich panels that were obtained was for a wall thickness of 10 cm, which amounted to 38.43 dB,
while the value of the sound insulation rate for a wall thickness of 7 cm was equal to 34 dB, and
finally it reached The value of the sound insulation rate measured for a wall thickness of 5 cm is 30.36
dB. This indicates that the value of the thickness affects the value of the sound insulation of the
sandwich panel walls, and if greater measurements were available, the insulation would have been
higher, meaning that the relationship is direct between the thickness and the measured sound
insulation.
Conclusions
1. The highest sound insulation value was obtained for the wall of sequence 13, which amounted
to 44.86 dB, but it is for a wall built of thermiston material, and this indicates that thermiston
gave the greatest value for sound insulation.
2. The walls built of bricks covered with wood and covered with PVC plastic, as well as concrete
walls covered with PVC plastic with a thickness of 10 cm, and the walls made of sandwich
panel material gave high values for sound insulation.
3. The use of porous bricks that contain holes is a good example of providing excellent sound
insulation with the rest of the additional insulators used from PVC and others.
4. For the walls of sandwich panels, it was found that with increasing thickness, the sound
insulation value increased, as the sound insulation value reached (38.43 dB, 34 dB and 30.36
dB) for walls with thicknesses (10 cm, 7 cm and 5 cm), respectively.
