Acoustics - Measurement of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements - Part 4: Field measurements of airborne sound insulation between rooms

Executive summary
Methods for measuring airborne sound insulation properties of interior walls, floors and doors between two rooms.

Abstract
The methods give values for airborne sound insulation which are frequency dependent. They can be converted into a single number, characterizing the acoustic performance, by application of ISO 717-1.
The results obtained can be used to compare sound insulation between rooms and to compare actual sound insulation with specified requirements.
