This report provides the railroad yard designer with a basic understanding of the principles involved in controlling noise, either in the design of new yards or in revisions to existing yards. The material presented allows the designer to better understand information contained in more advanced noise control writings should he undertake detailed noise control designs or elect to interact with acoustic experts in the development of such designs. The report contains discussions of sound fundamentals, measurement and analysis instrumentation, measurement procedures, current regulations, railroad noise sources and noise control methods.
