Hello and good day,
we would like to install a glass canopy (3x5m) over our terrace in a multi-family house. The owners above us are now concerned that it could become very loud in their bedroom above during rain. Has anyone ever measured the rain noise level in the room above a canopy? Or can someone provide me with sources where I can read about this?
I cannot find any dB information anywhere on the internet and do not know what to tell my neighbors about this.

Thank you very much in advance

Information about the sound pressure level wouldn't help you at all. For example, what would you do with the information that our glass roof (incline 12.7°), measured at a distance of one meter during a heavy rain shower (1.35 mm water column/hour) is exactly 42 dB.

The sound emissions will not jeopardize your project. I consider these to be pretextual. It's always a tricky matter with the dear neighbors.

A glass canopy is obviously part of normal use, so what do they want …

Nonsense, glass is not louder than when the rain splatters on the paved terrace. Metal is loud, and plastic sheets can also be louder, but no heavy glass like the kind used for such coverings. Don’t be discouraged.

But this is not about a semi-detached house, it is about an apartment building - if Omschi does not own the majority of the apartments, he cannot just do whatever he wants but needs a majority resolution!

We have such a glass roof, my son sleeps underneath it. I just asked him how much the noise, for example from rain, bothers him. He says that he has never noticed it.
