      G.2 - Results complete model
            G.2.1 - Substitute point sources
      G.3 - Results from simplified model

Describes a calculation model for the sound power level radiated by the envelope of a building due to airborne sound inside, primarily by means of measured sound pressure levels inside the building and measured data characterizing the sound transmission by relevant elements and openings in the building envelope. Does not cover outdoor sound propagation.
