Building Australia's quietest hospital
Transcription
[Music plays] (Dr Christopher Preston) This project is about making acoustic measurements on the new Royal Adelaide Hospital. It’s been making measurements on the windows and the spandrels which make up the external shell of the building and we’ve been looking to see how well the exterior parts of the building exclude noise from coming inside. One of the major issues with the construction of this building is that there’s helicopters landing on the roof. Helicopters produce approximately 140dB of noise which is equivalent to sitting approximately in the front row of a rock concert. To ensure the patients are most comfortable then the external shell of the building has extremely high noise rejection requirements. The walls are constructed in an aperture between two reverberation chambers. Noise is played on one side and the amount of noise that’s transferred through the wall is measured on the other. Domestic residents will typically just have single or perhaps thin double glazed windows. In this instance these windows have perhaps triple glazing, very thick glass and quite large gaps between the glass which helps provide the acoustic installation. And to ensure that all parts of the hospital are actually covered it was necessary to install all these different types of units into the chambers. That required installation by cranes and they were inserted into the walls and the walls were modified to fit the different size specimens and the testing was repeated over and over again. (David Truett) We need to eliminate all other sources of sound as much as possible so that we’re specifically measuring the sound that was generated from the speakers in the other room that’s coming through that wall into here. So I have to be locked into the chamber, inside the chamber, there are double seals on the door of the chamber. I take my shoes off and walk around in my socks, turn off my phone, take coins and keys out of my pocket and I have to turn off the computer because it has a fan in it and I also have to turn off the fan in the analyser itself. (Dr Preston) It’s been a very great engineering challenge to actually achieve the high performance for the South Australian Government has requested. And in the end this will be Australia’s quietest hospital. [Music plays]
History
ISUST was established on 16 June 1947 as Barotac Nuevo Junior High School, which was opened for the first and second year. It held its first commencement exercises on 25 March 1949. On 22 June 1957, it was converted into Central Iloilo National School of Fisheries (CINSOF) by virtue of RA 1925.[1] On 19 June 1961, it was renamed Iloilo National School of Fisheries (INSOF) and, on 20 June 1963, it was converted into Iloilo Regional School of Fisheries (IRSOF) by virtue of RA 3521. On 21 August 1978, then President Ferdinand Marcos signed PD 1523 converting IRSOF into Iloilo State College of Fisheries (ISCOF). On 22 August 2000, RA 8760 and CHED Memorandum Nos. 27 and 27-A integrated CHED-Supervised Institutions (CSIs) of Barotac Nuevo, Dingle, Dumangas, and San Enrique, Iloilo into the system. On 11 June 2013, President Benigno Aquino III signed RA 10604 converting Iloilo State College of Fisheries into Iloilo State University of Science and Technology.[2][3][4][5][6]
Mandate
It is mandated to provide advanced education, higher technological, professional instruction and training in fisheries technology, arts and sciences, education, industrial technology, engineering, aquaculture, seaweed farming, and other related fields of study relevant to national development. It undertakes research, extension services and production activities in support of the development of the Iloilo Province and provide progressive leadership in its areas of specialisation.[7]
Colleges
ISUST consists five colleges that provide instruction in basic education all the way up to the post-graduate levels. In the undergraduate and graduate levels, its covered disciplines include the Computer Studies, Education, Fisheries, HRM, Marine Biology, Nautical Studies, and Tourism. Its School of Graduate Studies offers Master in Instructional Leadership (English, Social Science, Science, and Mathematics), Master in Local Governance, Master of Arts in Educational Management, Master in Fisheries Technology, Doctor of Rural Development, Doctor of Fisheries Technology, and Doctor of Philosophy (Educational Technology).
Founder
Dr Ferjenel Biron, a Barotacnoan himself, is the Founding Father of the University under RA 10604. The University main campus is shared by ISUST at Poblacion (ISUST-Main Poblacion) in J.T. Bretana Street, yet the ISUST at Tiwi (ISUST-Main Tiwi) remains the biggest campus of the ISUST System.[7]
