It
3、 is based on A-weighted reduction of a transportation noise source. Otherratings include Classification E413 that rates the ability of a partition to reduce speech and othersounds within a limited frequency range, and Classification E989 that provides a rating method forcomparing the impact-insulati
4、on properties of floor-ceiling assemblies.1. Scope1.1 The purpose of this classification is to provide a method to calculate single-number ratings that can be used for assesing theisolation for the outdoor sound provided by a building or comparing building facade specimens including walls, doors, wi
5、ndows,and combinations thereof, including complete structures. These ratings are designed to correlate with subjective impressions of theability of building elements to reduce the penetration of outdoor ground and air transportation noise.noise that contains stronglow-frequency sound.2 These ratings
6、 provide an evaluation and rank ordering of the performance of test specimens based on theireffectiveness at controlling the sound of a specific outdoor sound spectrum called the reference source spectrum.1.2 In addition to the calculation method, this classification defines some ratings not defined
7、 in other standards. Other standardsmay define additional ratings based on the method of this classification.1.3 The rating does not necessarily relate to the perceived aesthetic quality of the transmitted sound. Different facade elementswith similar ratings may differ significantly in the proportio
8、n of low and high frequency sound that they transmit. transmit and thespectra of sources can vary significantly. It is best to use specific sound transmission loss values, in conjunction with actual spectraof outdoor and indoor sound levels, for making final selections of facade elements.1.4 Exclude
9、d from the scope of this classification are applications involving noise spectra differing markedly from thosedescribedthat shown in 4.1Table 1. Thus excluded, for example, would be certain industrial noises with high levels at frequenciesbelow the 80 Hz one-third octave band, relative to levels at
10、higher frequencies. frequencies, and any source, including sometransportation sources, that does not have a spectrum similar to that in Table 1. However, for any source with a spectrum similarto thosethat in 4.1Table 1, this classification provides a more reliable ranking of the performance of parti
11、tions and facade elementsthan do other classifications such as Classification E413.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associate

Significance and Use4.1 This class
33、ification provides a single number rating for transmission loss or noise reduction data that have been measuredor calculated. This rating is based on the difference between the overall A-weighted sound level of the sound spectrum given inTable 1 and the overall A-weighted sound level of the spectrum
34、 that results from arithmetically subtracting the transmission lossor noise reduction data from this spectrum. The spectrum shape is an average of three typical spectra from transportation sources(aircraft takeoff, freeway,road, and railroad diesel locomotive passby). A study showed that this classi
35、fication correlated well withthe A-weighted and loudness reductions (see ISO 532) calculated for each of the typical spectra individual spectra used indeveloping the rating for the one-third octave band range of 50 to 5000 Hz. The calculated numeric value of the rating is basedon the sound transmiss
36、ion loss or noise reduction values for a particular specimen and depends only on that data and the shapeof the reference source spectrum used in the calculation. The values shown in Table 1 have an arbitrary reference level.Single-number ratings should always be used with caution. Specimens having t
37、he same rating can result in different indoor spectradepending on the variation of their transmission loss with frequency. Also, if the actual spectrum of the outdoor sound is differentfrom that assumed in Table 1, the overallA-weighted outdoor-indoor noise reduction may be different from the OINIC.
38、 The stronglow-frequency content of the spectrum in Table 1 means that specimen achieving a high rating must have strong low-frequencytransmission loss. Use of this classification with the spectrum in Table 1 in situations where the source does not have a spectrumsimilar to Table 1 could result in r
39、equirements for more low-frequency transmission loss than is necessary for the application.Examples where this can occur are stage 3 jet aircraft, high-speed freeways with sound dominated by tire noise, and train passbyswith sound dominated by horns.64.2 This classification requires sound transmissi

41、d octave bandare not usually reported. Studies have shown that data in the 80 Hz one-third octave band are necessary to obtain acceptablecorrelations for transportation sound sources. For the purposes of this classification, measurements of sound transmission loss inthe 80 Hz one-third octave band f
42、rom qualified laboratories are deemed to be of acceptable accuracy.4.3 Users of this classification should recognize that low frequency measurements of sound transmission loss may be affectedby the test specimen size or the specimen edge restraints, or both, particularly for small modular specimens
43、such as doors orwindows. Consequently, the outdoor-indoor transmission class (OITC) may also be affected by these factors, resulting in someuncertainty of the field performance of assemblies bearing a rating number using this classification, but to what extent is unknown.5. Basis of Classification5.
