 | Acoustic And Non-Acoustic Performance Coal Bottom Ash Concrete This book highlights the acoustic performance of concrete made with Coal Bottom Ash (CBA) that has contributed to environmental issues. The usage of CBA in concrete can be recommended as good concrete due to its absorption properties. This book focuses on the principles and techniques employed in acoustic design. The book first elaborates on the perception of noise and properties of noise, followed by physical data, units and measurements. Finally, it takes a look at acoustic analysis which includes acoustic performance effects using different volumes of CBA, density and porosity of concrete. Dr. Shahiron Shahidan CEng graduated in 2007 with a B. Eng (Civil)(Hons) from University Industry Selangor. After graduation, he was employed as a Bridge Engineer at a consulting engineering firm for almost a year before making an academic career at Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM). He obtained his doctoral degree at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). Currently he is a Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Built Environment. Dr. Nurul Izzati received her doctoral degree at Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia. Her research interests are in acoustic performance of coal bottom ash concrete. |
