Abstract
- The aim of this paper is to find a better alternative for the insulation of industrial noise and to improve the mechanical properties of fibre reinforced mud bricks. It was observed that the fibre reinforced mud bricks fulfill the compressive strength and sound insulation requirements of the ASTM and Turkish Standards. Basaltic pumice as an ingredient was found to improve the sound insulation performance of fibre reinforced mud bricks. The experimental results showed that fibre reinforced mud brick, with basaltic pumice as ingredient, can be used in industrial buildings for walls to improve sound insulation. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
