Sustainable Building Material for Noisy Urban Residential Space

Researches on noise control have been conducting until now. Eventhough correlation model of housing orientation to airport's runway was found out, it would be better if housings are equipped by materials which can absorb noise. This paper will refresh the housing master plan design near airport continued with the possibility of housing on controlling noise disturbance. Method used is descriptive analysis on reviewing sustainable materials for low cost housings. Results of researches show that wood sawdust and coconut fibre panel have quite good acoustical performances and could be used to be wall layering in noisy urban housings.
