Abstract

The space pattern of urban blocks has an impact on the distribution of noise environment. The main noise in urban blocks comes from the traffic noise caused by the enclosed city roads. In the process when noise spreads from outside to the blocks, the building arrangement, the height of building structure, the interface enclosing extent of the blocks and the dispersion degree of the forms will affect the spread of the sound wave and affect the distribution of the overall noise in the block space to a certain extent.
