Noise Walls of the Future

Explore how environmental noise impacts public health and community well-being, and review effective noise-mitigation strategies using recycled-material barrier systems. This course discusses how sound behaves in the built environment and how recycled-plastic noise walls reduce carbon emissions, divert waste from landfills, and contribute to sustainability outcomes recognized by LEED® v5 Building Design and Construction (BD+C), SITES® v2, and broader infrastructure sustainability frameworks such as Envision®.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Describe the health and environmental impacts of noise on communities and explain how noise‑mitigation design strategies, such as recycled‑material noise barriers, help improve occupant well‑being.
  • Discuss how noise‑barrier geometry, placement, and material performance (including STC and NRC ratings) contribute to noise reduction.
  • Identify how incorporating recycled polymers into noise‑mitigation infrastructure reduces carbon emissions, supports circular‑economy material strategies, and contributes to sustainability goals across rating systems such as LEED, SITES, and Envision.
  • Apply customizable surface designs, transparency options, and context‑sensitive aesthetics to support equitable access, community identity, and improved public‑realm experience.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
