CONTAINED IN VOL. 04.06, 2015 Gives guidance to the methodology used in the measurement of building interior sound levels.

1.1This test method provides guidance to the methodology used in the measurement of building interior sound levels.

1.2This test method describes procedures for measuring sound in enclosed residential spaces produced by built-in utilities and major appliances such as plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning systems, refrigerators, and dish washers. The measured values may then be used to assess compliance, design, or habitation suitability.

1.3This test method does not promulgate or recommend acoustical criteria.

1.4This test method is not intended for obtaining data to evaluate indoor environments for:

1.4.1Commercial activities such as studios, communication centers, hospitals, and auditoria, and

1.4.2Effects from exterior sources such as aircraft, railroad operations, motor vehicles, mining operation, weapons fire, etc.

1.5This test method is not intended for evaluating sound transmission loss, sound absorption coefficient, or any other acoustical aspects of the space or structure.

1.6The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.7This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
