| dc.description.abstract | This paper presents results of the acoustic evaluation of eight school buildings in urban and peri-urban areas of the city of Viseu. Acoustics evaluation of school buildings was made by measurements of: reverberation time in classrooms, sound insulation between classrooms and between classrooms and corridors; impact sound insulation of floors and airborne sound insulation of façade. The sound insulation of façade was made with all elements closed and with natural ventilation conditions (banners or windows tilt mode). It was found that only two studied school buildings meet, for the performed tests, the legal requirements established in Portugal. The remaining six school buildings revealed disabled constructive aspects in relation to the acoustic requirements of school buildings compromising the quality of education. | pt_PT |
