Austrian Noise Abatement Association is an organization that was established in October, 1958 as a section of the Austrian Working Group for Health. This organization disseminates the fundamentals of acoustics and noise controls and help to disseminate necessary information related with it among its members. It also encourages the exchange of research and information in noise control with the experts of Austria and other countries. It organizes several conferences and seminars like International Congress and Exposition on Noise Control Engineering and others in order to help the society to get detailed facts and knowledge related with the industry. It also offers important guidelines for the industry to follow and implement so that it can improve and grow with the advancement of technologies. This association helps greatly in the management and improvement of the sectorNoise Emission and Abatement
Road traffic is regarded as one of the biggest sources of noise in urban areas and along main traffic routes. The AIT's acoustic specialists combine ultra-precise measurements taken on site with comprehensive simulations in order to model traffic-related noise emissions numerically. The results of measurements and simulations form the basis for the development of low-noise road surfaces and help manufacturers of noise protection elements to develop and infrastructure operators to implement effective noise protection measures along particularly noisy routes.
