In this study, heat, noise and vibrations of 3-axle bus which was produced according to the American regulations were determined. Insulation designs were made according to heat levels, intensity of noise and vibration and frequency. Comfort conditions inside the bus and the American regulations outside the bus were provided. Heat sources of the bus were detected. Insulations which are able to prevent the heat generated by those sources to reach passenger cabin and other badly affected areas. Maps of noise and vibration of bus is determined, according to the intensity, wavelength and frequency of the noise, using these data more insulation designs were made to reach more comfortable and quieter bus.
