In the study, the acoustic comfort conditions of the interiors of the Trabzon Ortahisar Municipality
Building were evaluated depending on the noise level values. Noise level measurements were made
indoors in Ortahisar Municipality of Ortahisar District, the center of Trabzon, and acceptable values
and measurement results were compared. First, the current architectural project of Ortahisar
Municipality was obtained from the Survey Project Directorate to determine the measurement points.
The causes of indoor noise and density conditions in the units were evaluated by making on-site
observations. Then, measurement points were determined on the project in line with the data
obtained. Four measurements of 15 minutes each between 10.00-11.00 hours at the specified
measurement points were completed in 24 working days. The values of the noise level measurement
results depending on the frequencies were obtained. In the last stage of the study, the noise level
measurement values obtained were compared with the acceptable values specified in the relevant
standards. As a result of the study, it was determined that the noise level measurement results were
generally above acceptable values in the background at medium and high frequencies.
