Abstract

A noise barrier system having support members and noise absorbing panels is disclosed. The noise absorbing panels include a front corrugated perforated sheet and a rear corrugated solid sheet which define a chamber. A central sinusoidally corrugated perforated sheet is provided within the chamber. A first blanket of low frequency noise absorbing material is disposed adjacent the front face of the central member and is configured so that a resonance zone is provided between the first blanket and the rear surface of the front sheet. A second blanket of higher frequency sound absorbing material is provided between the rear surface of the central member and the front surface of the rear sheet.
