Abstract
Abstract A sound absorbing body which can effectively be utilized as an exterior sound absorbing wall or an interior wall of a house is disclosed. The sound absorbing body comprises a number of sound absorbing cavities inclined at an angle α which is smaller than 80° with respect to a transverse horizontal sectional plane of the body, the sound absorbing cavities being opened at the sound incident surface.
