"Application factors"such as localion, height, and reflective surfaces are taken into I <br /> consideration to predict the sound level at a specific location. <br /> The nearest receiving property is 5 (eet east of the wireless tacility. The predicted sound level <br /> at the nearest receiving property is shown below. <br /> Table 1 <br /> Application Factors and Predicted Noise Levels <br /> Pro osed New E ui ment <br /> Line A Iication Factor West <br /> 1 Existin E ui ment Sound Pressure Level at 3 ft. dBA , L 1 55 <br /> 2 Dislance Feclor(DF): •� <br /> DF = 2010 d1/d2 5 h <br /> 3 Predicted Noise Level al Receiver PropeRy Line 55 <br /> Add lines 1 and 2 <br /> As shown in Table 1, the predicted sound pressure level produced by the new equipment is 55 <br /> dBA at the nearest receiving property, which does not meet the 45 dBA nighttime code limit. In <br /> order to meet code, a barrier of the following minimum specifications should be ccnstructed. <br /> Noise Barrier <br /> The noise barrier should be 6-feet tall and be constructed from continuously solid '/." plywood or <br /> material with a suriace weight of at least 2.5 pounds per square foot and framed on wood or <br /> metal posts. There should be no gaps or joints in the barrier. The inside ot the barrier should <br /> be lined with sound absorbing Quash rigid foarn board QFR 2" lhick (available from Forrest <br /> Sound Products, (425) 646-9703). <br /> This assembly will drop the noise level from the equipment at the nearest receiving property to <br /> 45 dBA. <br /> If you have any questions or require further information, please feel free to call. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> SSA Acoustics, LLP <br /> Alan Burt <br /> ACOUSTICAL CONSULTANT <br /> ��/ <br />
