Sound-proof house for people living near Suvarnabhumi Airport
Monday, March 19th, 2007A design for a sound-proof house for people living near Suvarnabhumi airport has earned three Rangsit University (RSU) students an architecture award. They say their design would keep out 60% of the noise. The winners are Pichaya Prasertwong, Jaruek Taweesri-amnuay and Intat Wejsan from RSU’s architecture faculty.
They beat 37 other teams in a contest for a sound-proofed house organised by King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Lat Krabang (KMITL).
The winning design has double-glazed walls which serve the double purpose of plane-viewing pleasure and a noise barrier.
It also incorporates the latest noise reduction technology employed at stations used by Japan’s Shinkansen high-speed bullet trains.
