Abstract:
The latest technological innovations have considerably increased the field of application for infrasound, and the possible risks that infrasound may present to those exposed to it must be taken into account. The main task of this article is to organize and summarize recent studies on the most common artificial emitting sources and the effects that these non-audible frequencies have on health when absorbed by the body, as well as presenting the existing regulations, a discussion and a series of conclusions that clarify aspects of infrasound. The intention of the authors of this article is that what is exposed in this review can be used to address and determine future lines of research and promote architects to take the spaces of installations within a building very seriously as well as carry out competent administration considering a minimum distance from the road to where habitable buildings are planned.
