12、 AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS ON ACOUSTICS The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) provides the Secretariat for Accredited Standards Committees S1 on Acoustics, S2 on Mechanical Vibration and Shock, S3 on Bioacoustics, S3/SC 1 on Animal Bioacoustics, and S12 on Noise. These committees have wide repre

13、sentation from the technical community (manufacturers, consumers, trade associations, organizations with a general interest, and government representatives). The standards are published by the Acoustical Society of America as American National Standards after approval by their respective Standards C

14、ommittees and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These standards are developed and published as a public service to provide standards useful to the public, industry, and consumers, and to Federal, State, and local governments. Each of the Accredited Standards Committees (operating in

15、accordance with procedures approved by ANSI) is responsible for developing, voting upon, and maintaining or revising its own Standards. The ASA Standards Secretariat administers Committee organization and activity and provides liaison between the Accredited Standards Committees and ANSI. After the S

16、tandards have been produced and adopted by the Accredited Standards Committees, and approved as American National Standards by ANSI, the ASA Standards Secretariat arranges for their publication and distribution. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with

17、its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus

18、 requires that all views and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made towards their resolution. The use of an American National Standard is completely voluntary. Their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he or she has approved the Standards or not, from man

19、ufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the Standards. NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to re

20、affirm, revise, or withdraw this Standard.

This

31、standard comprises a part of a group of definitions, standards, and specifications for use in noise. It was developed and approved by Accredited Standards Committee S12, Noise, under its approved operating procedures. Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Standards Institute

32、 (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Standards Committee S12 is as follows: Standards, specifications, and terminology in the field of acoustical noise pertaining to methods of measurement, evaluation, and control, including biological safety, tolerance, and comfort, and physical acoustics as related to

33、 environmental and occupational noise. At the time of publication of this document, the ANSI/ASA S12.60 series of standards includes the following American National Standards: ANSI/ASA S12.60-2010/Part 1 American National Standard Acoustical Performance Criteria, Design Requirements, and Guidelines

An informative technical report is also planned as Part 4 of this series which is envisioned to cover, at a minimum, the topics previously included in ANSI/ASA

36、 S12.60-2002 (R 2009), Annexes A, B, D, F and G. This standard is not comparable to any existing ISO Standard.

38、speech communication is an important part of the learning process. Excessive background noise or reverberation in such spaces interferes with speech communication and thus presents an acoustical impediment to learning. With a classroom having good acoustical characteristics, learning is easier, deep

39、er, more sustained, and less fatiguing. Teaching should be more effective and less stressful with well designed acoustical characteristics in a classroom. There can be more verbal interaction and less repetition between teacher and students when spoken words are clearly heard and understood. All tho

40、se in a classroom, including teachers and adult learners, will benefit from a classroom having the acoustical characteristics recommended in this standard. Special beneficiaries are young children and persons with hearing, language, speech, attention deficit, or learning disabilities. Conformance to

41、 the requirements and guidelines of this standard will improve the quality of education by eliminating acoustical impediments for all students and teachers, including those with communication disabilities. This standard seeks to provide flexibility for the design of learning spaces without compromis

42、ing the goal of obtaining adequate speech intelligibility for all students and teachers in classrooms and learning spaces within the scope of this standard.

43、tical Performance Criteria, Design Requirements, and Guidelines for Schools, Part 1: Permanent Schools 1 Scope and purpose 1.1 Scope 1.1.1 Part 1 of ANSI/ASA S12.60 is applicable to core learning spaces and classrooms with interior volumes not exceeding 566 m3 (20 000 ft3) and to ancillary learning

44、spaces of any volume. Learning spaces with volumes larger than 566 m3 (20 000 ft3) are considered ancillary learning spaces for purposes of this standard. Annex A provides testing procedures when optional tests are performed to determine conformance with the source background noise requirements and

45、the noise isolation requirements of this standard. Annex B provides commentary information on various paragraphs of this standard. Annex C provides guidelines for controlling reverberation in classrooms and other learning spaces. This Part does not apply for natatoria, auditoria, music performance s

46、paces, teleconferencing rooms, or special education rooms such as those for severely acoustically challenged students, which all require special acoustical design and treatment that is not within the scope of this standard. This Part does not apply to relocatable classrooms or relocatable modular le

47、arning spaces, which are covered by Part 2 of ANSI/ASA S12.60. 1.1.2 Acoustical performance criteria are specified in this standard by limits on the greatest one-hour average A-weighted and C-weighted background noise levels and by limits on reverberation times when students are expected to be prese

48、nt. 1.1.3 The control of background noise levels in this standard is achieved, in part, by specifying the minimum outdoor-to-indoor transmission class (OITC) ratings and sound transmission class (STC) ratings, depending upon the sound source, to reduce noise that intrudes into the classroom or learn

49、ing space from sources outside of the building envelope, and specifying minimum STC ratings for walls and floor-ceiling assemblies where noise that originates within the school building intrudes into the classroom through classroom walls and floor/ceiling assemblies. The control of noise from footsteps or other impacts on a floor above is achieved by specifying an impact insulation class (IIC) rating for the floor/ceiling assembly. 1.1.4 This standard applies to siting and building-design-dependent sources of intrusive noise in
