Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis test method is part of a set of standards for evaluating the sound-insulating properties ofbuilding elements and the sound iso

3、lation between spaces. It is designed to measure the field soundisolation performance of doors. Others in the set cover the airborne sound transmission loss of anisolated partition element in a controlled laboratory environment (Test Method E90), field measure-ments of the sound isolation between ro

4、oms in buildings (Test Method E336), the laboratorymeasurement of impact sound transmission through floors (Test Method E492), the measurement ofimpact sound transmission in buildings (Test Method E1007), the measurement of sound transmissionthrough building facades and facade elements (Guide E966),

5、 and the measurement of soundtransmission through a common plenum between two rooms (Test Method E1414).1. Scope1.1 The sound insulation properties of a door are measuredin a laboratory as the sound transmission loss in accordancewith Test Method E90. Using those data single number ratingsound trans

6、mission class (STC) is assigned. In the field, therooms on one or both sides of a partition containing a door areoften either too small or too large and absorptive to allow theapparent transmission loss (ATL) of the partition-door assem-bly to be measured. Even if that is not the case, the resultmea

7、sured is the composite ATL of the partition including thedoor, and not that of the door itself. Test Method E336 actuallystates that it is impossible to measure the ATL of a portion ofa partition such as a door according to the procedures of thatstandard. This test method provides a method of evalua

8、tingdoors in such cases using a normalized insertion loss with aresulting single number rating door transmission class, DTC.This method is intended primarily for hinged personnel doorswith latching mechanisms and is limited to door openings ofarea less than 6 m2. The flanking effects of surroundings

9、tructure are reduced compared to E336 but not completelyeliminated. In a laboratory environment, the DTC is close to orequal to the STC of the door, but in the field results less thanthe laboratory STC should be expected.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units

33、 Equipment6.1 Sound Sources and SignalsSound sources shall beloudspeaker systems driven by power amplifiers. The inputsignal to the amplifiers shall be random noise containing anapproximately continuous distribution of frequencies over eachtest band. White or pink electronic noise sources satisfy th

34、iscondition.NOTE 2Ideally, loudspeaker systems should be omnidirectional. Inpractice, using multiple driver elements to cover different frequencyranges and placing and aiming sources into trihedral corners of the roomwill normally be adequate.6.1.1 The sound power of the source(s) must be sufficient

35、 toraise the signal level in the receiving room with the door closedfar enough above background noise to meet the requirementsof 11.8.6.2 Measuring EquipmentMicrophones, amplifiers, andelectronic circuitry to process microphone signals and performmeasurements shall satisfy the requirements of ANSI S

36、1.4 forType 1 sound level meters, except that B and C weightingnetworks are not required.6.2.1 Measurement quality microphones 13 mm or smallerin diameter and that are close to omnidirectional below 5000Hz shall be used.NOTE 3If measurements are to be made above 5000 Hz, a diffuse-field(random-incid

37、ence) microphone or corrector is preferred.6.2.1.1 If multiple microphones are used, they shall all be ofthe same make and model.6.3 Bandwidth and FilteringThe measurement systemfilters or each test band, shall meet or exceed the specificationsof ANSI S1.11 for one-third-octave band filter set, clas

38、s 1 orbetter.6.3.1 The measurement system filters or each test band,shall meet or exceed the specifications of ANSI S1.11 forone-third-octave band filter set, class 1 or better.NOTE 4It is desirable that the frequency range be extended to includeat least the 100 and 5000-Hz bands as this is required

39、 to calculateoctave-band results. With modern-parallel measurement instruments, noextra work is required.6.4 CalibratorsThe field calibrator used for sensitivitychecks shall be an acoustic or electroacoustic calibrator meet-ing class 1 requirements of ANSI S1.40 or IEC 60942.7. Calibration and Sensi

40、tivity Checks7.1 A thorough calibration of acoustical instrumentation bya calibration laboratory at regular intervals is necessary to helpassure that the equipment is operating within instrumentstandards and manufacturers specifications. The appropriatecalibration interval depends on several factors

41、 including thecomplexity of the instrument, frequency of use, frequency offield use and transportation, manufacturer recommendations,and history of reliability or problems as observed in priorcalibrations.NOTE 5ANSI S1.10 provides more information on calibration.7.2 Perform sensitivity checks of the

42、 entire measuring setup(including the microphone, all cables, and instruments) withthe same calibration equipment before and after the measure-ments. If the calibration values differ by more than 0.5 dB, theresults are invalid and measurements shall be repeated.8. Test Site and Door Conditions8.1 Th

43、e test specimen will be a door in a partition thatseparates the source and receiving rooms.8.2 Flanking transmission in the structure adjacent to thedoor will be present.8.3 While this method is designed to minimize the influenceof flanking, major flanking due to weakness of the partition inwhich th

44、e door is installed (or other paths) may influenceresults. If such is suspected, temporary improvements to thepartition or other paths may be made. Such improvements shallbe reported. Particular attention shall be given to identifyingpotential flanking paths that may be present through ducts orthrou

45、gh plenums over acoustical ceilings.NOTE 6If it is desired to investigate the effect of flanking, this mightbe done by constructing a cover over the source side of the door andrepeating the measurements of the receive side level with the door closed.A suitable cover could be a layer of gypsum spaced

46、 approximately 100mm from the door with sound absorptive material in that cavity and theedges sealed.8.4 Results will be influenced by the performance of thedoor seals. Care shall be taken to assure the door is properlyclosed with any latch present properly latched when measure-ments are made on the

47、 receiving side with the door closed.8.5 When the door is opened it shall be opened as far aspossible for each open door measurement to minimize theinfluence of reflections from its surface.9. Door and Room Selection9.1 When measurements are being made to evaluate theapparent sound insulation perfor

48、mance of a particular door, thedoor may be specified by the party requesting the test. In othercases it may be necessary to select a door or number of doorsto be examined from among many. This method does notimpose particular requirements on the test spaces except that itis desirable that the ATL of

49、 the partition into which the door isinstalled be significantly greater than that of the door. Thus,where partitions differ, it is desirable to select doors inpartitions believed to have the highest transmission loss andleast flanking transmission.NOTE 7Results from a single field test of a door should not be usedto represent performance of similar or nominally identical doors. If thedoor has acoustical seals, the DTC rating can vary widely depending uponthe individual adjustment of these seals. Thus, if multiple doors of a givendesign exist on a s
