It is not unusual these days for a person to encounter sound at levels that can cause adverse health effects.
During a single day people living in a typical urban environment can experience a wide range of sounds in
many locations including shopping malls, schools, the workplace, recreational centers, and the home.
Some experts define noise simply as “unwanted sound,” but what can be unwanted for one person can be
pleasant or even essential sound to another—consider boom boxes, car stereos, drag races, and lawn
mowers in this context. Sound intensity is measured in decibels (dB); the unit A-weighted dB (dBA) is used
to indicate how humans hear a given sound. Zero dBA is considered the point at which a person begins to
hear sound. A soft whisper at 3 feet equals 30 dBA, a busy freeway at 50 feet is around 80 dBA, and a
chain saw can reach 110 dBA or more at operating distance. Brief exposure to sound levels exceeding 120
dBA without hearing protection may even cause physical pain.
Numerous scientific studies over the years have confirmed that exposure to certain levels of sound can
damage hearing. Prolonged exposure can actually change the structure of the hair cells in the inner ear,
resulting in hearing loss. It can also cause tinnitus, a ringing, roaring, buzzing, or clicking in the ears. The
American Tinnitus Association estimates that 12 million Americans suffer from this condition, with at least
1 million experiencing it to the extent that it interferes with their daily activities.

Naturally we think of acoustics for an auditorium, but how about when we cannot hear over loud background
noise from traffic or HVAC equipment? How about when we cannot concentrate at work? When we hear
our neighbors? Sleepless at the hospital?
