Noise Impact
Undesirable noise impact is commonly the result of grouping incompatible land uses together. As residential land uses are the most sensitive to noise disturbances caused by industrial and construction sites, zoning is used to separate such uses from residential neighbourhoods.
Building Envelop Design
Building envelop design can also reduce noise level.
Examples:
Police Dog Unit and Force Search Unit facilities in Sha Ling.A horseshoe-shaped dog kennels to reduce the resonance of dogs´ bar
Sheung Shui Slaughter House
Isolation from urban areas and convenience to rail.
