What are the advantages of precast concrete noise barriers over other materials and construction methods?
Research has shown that concrete provides the highest sound transmission loss value when compared with common noise wall materials. In addition, precast concrete noise barriers require a considerably smaller footprint compared with earth berms, which can make only a barely perceptible decrease in the noise.
