Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the righ

17、t to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures

18、 used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rul

23、ted underwater sound during percussive pile driving.Sound is often an unintended by-product of man-made activities, and the increasing number of sound-producing human activities in oceans, seas, lakes, rivers and harbours have led to concern over noise pollution from unwanted sound and its potential

24、 effect on aquatic life. In some countries, there is already incipient regulation with regard to the impact of the radiated underwater sound, requiring acoustic monitoring for environmental impact assessment during construction projects.Percussive pile driving can be a significant source of low-freq

25、uency impulsive underwater sound. During the process, a pile is driven into the seabed (or river-bed, etc.) using a hammer, which is typically driven hydraulically. Such a technique is commonly used to position piles in shallow water construction applications. Examples of such applications include t

26、he following: construction of offshore wind farms; construction and mooring of platforms for the offshore oil and gas industry; construction of bridge supports and foundations in rivers, estuaries, harbours and quays (and close proximity to them); mooring and positioning of aquatic renewable energy

27、devices.In the scientific literature, a number of attempts to measure the water-borne noise levels have been reported1-13. Often, these are difficult to compare because different acoustic metrics are used, and this has led to guidance being provided to address the need within individual countries14-

28、16. The measurement of piling noise is made difficult by a number of factors. The source extends from the water surface to the seabed (or river-bed, etc.), generating sound waves in water, air and seabed, and vibrating the seabed surface. The environment is often shallow water which gives rise to su

29、bstantial reverberation, and bathymetric features and seabed (or river-bed, etc.) interaction can strongly influence the propagation of the sound.Often, simple assumptions about equivalent point sources have been used in measurements and for propagation modelling without sufficient validation. Progr

30、ess with modelling the source has been reported in the scientific literature, but a complete understanding has not yet been achieved17-22.The aim of this document is to provide procedures and methodologies for measurement of sound radiation into the water, and recommend acoustic metrics to describe

31、the sound field. The assessment of impact of the radiated sound on marine life is not part of the scope of this document.vi ISO 2017 All rights reservedBS ISO 18406:2017Underwater acoustics Measurement of radiated underwater sound from percussive pile driving1 ScopeThis document describes the method

32、ologies, procedures, and measurement systems to be used for the measurement of the radiated underwater acoustic sound generated during pile driving using percussive blows with a hammer.A major motivation for undertaking measurements of the sound radiated during percussive pile driving is as part of

33、an assessment of impact on aquatic fauna required by regulatory frameworks. This document describes a generic approach to measurements that can be applied to different regulatory requirements.This document is suitable for measurement of percussive pile driving undertaken for offshore installation of

34、 foundations (monopiles, jackets, tripods, etc.) used in construction of offshore wind farms, oil and gas platforms, and other inshore structures such as bridge foundations and aquatic renewable energy devices. This document does not cover measurement of the sound radiated by vibro-piling or sheet p

35、iling. This document does not cover piling in water of depth less than 4 m or greater than 100 m.The procedures described herein provide guidance on making measurements to satisfy the following objectives: to monitor source output during piling, for example, for regulatory purposes; to provide consi

36、stency in comparison of piling noise from different construction projects; for validation of modelling or predictions.This document covers only the measurement of the sound field radiated during percussive pile driving. The scope of this document does not include the assessment of exposure metrics,

37、or the use of exposure criteria. No attempt is made to prescribe a methodology for generating maps of the acoustic field in the vicinity of the source.In the normative part of this document, requirements and procedures are described for measurement of the sound field at specific ranges from the pile

38、 being driven. In this part of the document, no procedure is provided for determination of an acoustic output metric that is independent of the propagation path between source and receiver (such as a source level). Ideally, such a metric would have some predictive utility (for example, in calculatin

39、g noise impact zones and noise maps). However, some information on the determination of a possible acoustic output metric is provided in Annex A.This document covers only the measurement of sound pressure in the water column. The scope does not include measurement of sound particle velocity in the w

40、ater column due to the propagating sound wave, or seabed vibration caused by waves propagating across the sea-floor. This exclusion does not imply that such measures are unimportant; indeed, their importance in assessing the impact on aquatic life is recognized. However, at the time of drafting, mea

41、surement of these quantities is not yet mature enough for standardization.2 Normative referencesThe following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.

43、nt, the terms and definitions given in ISO 18405 (especially: sound pressure, sound pressure level, mean-square sound pressure level, sound exposure, sound exposure level, peak sound pressure, peak sound pressure level) and the following apply.NOTE Although the definitions of sound exposure and soun

44、d exposure level are taken from ISO 18405, specific nomenclature is used in this document for sound exposure level calculated over the duration of one acoustic pulse, and over the duration of multiple acoustic pulses; this nomenclature is described in 3.2.ISO and IEC maintain terminological database

46、duration is defined in ISO 18405.Note 2 to entry: The energy percentage over which the pulse duration has been calculated should be stated with the result. For the purposes of this document, the energy percentage for the pulse duration is 90 %.Note 3 to entry: In general, in shallow water, the acous

47、tic pulse includes multiple arrivals of the outgoing acoustic waves, including multi-path signal arrivals from surface and seabed. In reverberant environments such as harbours, where sound waves may be reflected by boundaries such as harbour walls, it may be difficult to identify individual outgoing

48、 acoustic pulses.3.2sound exposure levelSELlevel of the sound exposure, for a specified reference valueNote 1 to entry: The sound exposure level is as defined in ISO 18405.Note 2 to entry: The sound exposure level for an individual acoustic pulse (corresponding to a single hammer strike) is calculat

49、ed over the pulse duration on the basis of 100 % of the pulse energy. For the purposes of this document, this is termed the single strike sound exposure level (abbreviated as SELss). It is recognized that in the scientific literature, this parameter is sometimes called the single pulse sound exposure level.Note 3 to entry: The sound exposure level over a defined period of time, which includes multiple acoustic pulses, is, for the purposes of this document, termed the cumulative sound exposure level (abbreviated as SELcum).
