Abstract
Principles and fundamental basics of Fire Safety and Acoustics Engineering
Objective
Fire Safety Engineering - Fire safety objectives and regulations - Fire safety concepts and measures - Fire statistics - Human behavior and escape - Structural fire safety - Technical fire safety - Organizational fire safety - Risk and probabilistic - Economy of fire safety measures Acoustics Engineering - Fundamentals of sound: Sound waves, Sound sources and free field sound propagation, Sound descriptors and sound levels - Sound fields in rooms: Reflection and absorption at boundaries, Diffuse sound fields (reverberation time), Room modes - Airborne sound transmission through building elements I: Homogenous structures: Monolithic elements, Double leaf elements (walls, windows, ), Linings, toppings and additional layers - Airborne sound transmission through building elements II: Assembled (lightweight) structures: Double leaf framed elements - Impact sound transmission through building elements: Impact sources, Floor elements and floor toppings, Introduction structure-borne sound and vibration - Sound transmission in buildings I: Composite elements, Flanking sound transmission I: Concept of flanking, Monolithic buildings - Sound transmission in buildings II: Flanking sound transmission II: Lightweight framed buildings, Outline prediction methods, Noise from building systems and installations - Measurement, Descriptors and Regulations: Standardized measurement techniques and protocols
