N2  - The topic of this book is the design for control of noise, privacy, and room acoustics in buildings.  With the ever-increasing use of lighter construction materials and the steady increase of use of equipment that generates sound, this is a problem that continues and gets worse.  This is not a book for acoustic engineers but for building designers who must consider sound problems and how they affect their design work. - Preface
