| Summary: | Measurement of aircraft noise in residential areas near Batu Berendam Airport is a way to know the existing noise produces by aircraft whether it will cause interruption in daily routine, quality of life and health of the neighborhood around the airport area. Aircraft noise is defined as sound produced by any aircraft on run-up, taxiing, take off, over-flying or landing. Aircraft noise is a significant concern for approximately 100 square kilometers surrounding most major airports [1]. Aircraft noise is the second largest (after roadway noise) source of environmental noise. While commercial aviation produces the preponderance of total aircraft noise, private aviation and military operations also play a role. Take-off of aircraft may lead to a sound level of more than 100 decibels at the ground, with approach and landing creating lower levels. Since aircraft landing in inner-city airports are often lower than 60 meters above roof level, a sound level above 100 dBA can be noticed. [1] In this project, noise measurement will be carried out using the sound level meter type NA-28. The data analysis will be analyzed using the software supplied together with the sound level meter. Due to the airport expansion, it is expected that the future existing noise produce by the aircraft will create more disturbances to the residential area. Therefore, prediction has to be made in order to assume the sound level will cause interruption or not. The prediction method is going to be done using suitable method such as doing a noise contouring on a map which has been designed using AutoCAD layout. |
