Abstract

To analyze the traffic noise as changed pavement types, a research team measured traffic noise in test load located in YeoJu, Korea. The test road was composed of four different pavement types as followed; Dense grade asphalt concrete pavement (ACP), Joint concrete pavement (JCP), Continuous reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP), Transverse grooving on jointed concrete pavement (GJCP). In order to measure traffic noise as function of vehicle speed at interface between pavement and vehicle tire, NCPX (Noble Close ProXimity) method was adopted in the study. Based on analysis of test results, transverse grooving on JCP was shown the highest SPL 110.5 dB(A), However, Dense grade asphalt concrete pavement was shown the lowest value, 101.5 dB(A). Therefore, the transverse grooving on JCP is average 9 dB(A) higher than that of asphalt concrete pavement. Also, the sound pressure level (SPL) was analyzed between front and rear axle in vehicle. The front SPL was average 4.4 dB(A) higher than that of rear SPL. In this case study, asphalt concrete pavement shows the highest differences in SPL with 7.4 dB(A). However, CRCP was lowest differences in SPL with 3 dB(A). It implies that there is different interaction between tire and road as changed vehicle axle.
