Ratings7.1 Acoustical Ratingsan acoustical ceiling mayshall meet one or more of the following acoustical performance requirements:7.1.1 Noise Reduction Coeffcient (NRC)An acoustical ceiling may meet a NRC rating measured in accordance with TestMethod C423. NRC values are to be expressed in i
35、ncrements of 0.05 as specified by Test Method C423. Typical values may rangefrom 0.40 to 1.00.7.1.2 Articulation Class (AC)An acoustical ceiling may meet the minimumAC rating derived in accordance with Test MethodE1111 and Classification E1110. AC values are to be expressed to the nearest multiple o
36、f 10 as specified by the ClassificationE1110. Typical values may range from 150 to 250.NOTE 3Specify AC rating only when rating the acoustical performance of ceilings designed to accommodate open-plan areas. AC is applicable forany ceiling material used as part of an acoustically designed system inc
37、orporating background sound masking and speech privacy space dividers. AC isthe preferred rating scheme for selecting ceiling products for open-plan in lieu of the NRC rating scheme. (The addition of hard surfaced elements in theceiling, such as surface mounted or recessed lighting fixtures can impa
38、ir the AC rating, depending upon the area of the hard surface and its locationrelevant to occupants in the space.)7.1.3 Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC)An acoustical ceiling may meet a CAC rating, derived in accordance with Test MethodE1414 and Classification E413. Typical CAC values may range from 5
39、 to 55.NOTE 4Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC) is a single number rating obtained according to Test Method E1414 and Classification E413. TheNormalized Ceiling Attenuation (Dn,c) values, obtained according to E1414 are used instead of Transmission Loss (TL) values in Classification E413.Test Method E1
40、414 is a two-room method of test in which a suspended ceiling and common plenum space overlay a two-room suite separated by amassive dividing wall. Sound must travel up through the source room ceiling, across the plenum, and down through the receive room ceiling.Modifications to the plenum space suc
41、h as overlays and barriers must be specified. STC ratings obtained from Test Method E90 or E336 data are notacceptable.7.2 Light Reflectance (LR) CoeffcientAn acoustical ceiling may meet a LR coefficient, measured in accordance with TestMethod E1477. Typical values may range from 0.60 to 0.80.7.3 Fi
42、re Class/Surface Burning CharacteristicsAcoustical ceiling products may be classified by flame spread and smokedeveloped indexes, tested in accordance with Test Method E84, as follows:7.3.1 Class AThe flame spread rating of Class A ceiling products shall not exceed 25, nor shall the material show ev
43、idenceof continued progressive combustion after the test flame has been extinguished.All surfaces, including those that would be exposedby cutting through the material in any way, shall meet these requirements. In addition, ClassAceiling products shall have a smokedeveloped rating not to exceed 50.7
44、.3.2 Class BThe flame spread of Class B ceiling products shall not exceed 75 on the face side.7.3.3 Class CThe flame spread of Class C Ceiling products shall not exceed 200 on the face side.NOTE 5Classes A, B, and C are equivalent, respectively, to Classes I, II, and III of various building code aut

Test Methods8.1 Acoustical Performance Ratings:E1264 1448.1.1 Noise Reduction Coeffcient (NRC)Test according to Test Method C423 using Type E-400 mounting as defined inPractices E795 unless special means of installation are required. Special means of installation shall be explicitly note
46、d in testreports and in publications of test data.NOTE 6Plenum: The depth of air space has considerable effect on NRC using mechanically mounted acoustical tiles and panels. Because there areunlimited variations that are possible, it has been established that Practices E795 mounting Type E-400 (form
47、erly AMA Mounting No. 7) is mostconsistent with normal usage and existing technology of testing. Some manufacturers publish data for depths of mountings other than 400 mm, designatedby an E, followed by numbers which indicate the mounting depth in millimeters. For selecting NRC for mechanically moun
48、ted acoustical tiles and panels,mounting Type E-400 is preferred. If a plenum will not be used, a report of how the product performs with the appropriate mounting shouldshall beobtained.described.8.1.2 Articulation Class (AC)Test according to Test Method E1111 and determine AC rating according to Cl
49、assificationE1110, subject to the following:8.1.2.1 The reported AC rating shall be the minimum articulation class as defined in Test Method E1111, for a space dividerheight of 1.52 m (60 in.) and no other heights.NOTE 7The space divider height has considerable effect on theAC rating of acoustical tiles and panels. Because there are unlimited heights that couldbe tested, it has been established that 1.52 m (60 in.) space divider height is consistent with normal practices and usages. Test Metho
