Abstract :
In order to study the noise problems induced by the Elevated Rail Transit in Beijing, the noise field experiment is carried out in the elevated section of Beijing Metro Line 5. It can be concluded that the higher the train speed is, the larger the noise is; and the noise influence caused by running train on elevated bridge for the steel box girder cross-section is larger than that for RC box girder cross-section.
