19、ns of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 receiving rooma reverberation room below the floorspecimen under test in which the sound pressure levels due tothe tapping machine are measured.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A standard tapping machine is placed in operation on afloor specimen that is intend

20、ed to represent a horizontalseparation between two rooms, one directly above the other.The average spectrum of the sound pressure levels produced bythe tapping machine is measured in the receiving room belowin one-third octave bands.4.2 Since the spectrum depends on the absorption of thereceiving ro

21、om, the sound pressure levels are normalized to areference absorption for purposes of comparing results ob-tained in different receiving rooms that differ in absorption.5. Significance and Use5.1 The spectrum of the noise in the room below the testspecimen is determined by the following:5.1.1 The si

22、ze and the mechanical properties of the floor-ceiling assembly, such as its construction, surface, mounting oredge restraints, stiffness, or internal damping,5.1.2 The acoustical response of the room below,5.1.3 The placement of the object or device producing theimpacts, and5.1.4 The nature of the a

23、ctual impact itself.5.2 This test method is based on the use of a standardizedtapping machine of the type specified in 8.1 placed in specificpositions on the floor. This machine produces a continuousseries of uniform impacts at a uniform rate on a test floor andgenerates in the receiving room broadb

24、and sound pressurelevels that are sufficiently high to make measurements possiblebeneath most floor types even in the presence of backgroundnoise. The tapping machine itself, however, is not designed tosimulate any one type of impact, such as produced by male orfemale footsteps.5.3 Because of its po

25、rtable design, the tapping machine doesnot simulate the weight of a human walker. Therefore, thestructural sounds, i.e., creaks or booms of a floor assemblycaused by such footstep excitation is not reflected in the singlenumber impact rating derived from test results obtained by thistest method. The

26、 degree of correlation between the results oftapping machine tests in the laboratory and the subjectiveacceptance of floors under typical conditions of domesticimpact excitation is uncertain. The correlation will depend onboth the type of floor construction and the nature of the impactexcitation in

27、the building.5.4 In laboratories designed to satisfy the requirements ofthis test method, the intent is that only significant path forsound transmission between the rooms is through the testspecimen. This is not generally the case in buildings wherethere are often many other paths for soundsflanking

28、 soundtransmission. Consequently sound ratings obtained using thistest method do not relate directly to sound isolation inbuildings; they represent an upper limit to what would bemeasured in a field test.5.5 This test method is not intended for field tests. Fieldtests are performed according to Test

29、 Method E 1007.6. Test Rooms6.1 The test facility shall be so constructed and arrangedthat the test specimen constitutes the only important transmis-sion path for the tapping machine sound.NOTE 1Common methods for ensuring that this requirement issatisfied include mounting the specimen resiliently i

30、n the test opening,mounting the specimen in a resiliently supported test frame, and support-ing rooms resiliently. In general, all rigid connections between thespecimen and the test rooms should be avoided.6.2 The spatial variations of sound pressure level measuredin the receiving room shall be such

31、 that the precision require-ments in Annex A1 are satisfied at all frequencies.6.3 Volume of Receiving RoomThe recommended mini-mum volume of the receiving room is 125 m3.NOTE 2See Test Method E90for recommendations for new construc-tion.6.4 Room AbsorptionThe sound absorption in the receiv-ing room

32、 should be low to achieve the best possible simulation4Available from International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), 3 rue deVaremb, Case postale 131, CH-1211, Geneva 20, Switzerland, http:/www.iec.ch.E492092of the ideal diffuse field condition, and to minimize the regiondominated by the direct fi

33、eld of the test specimen. In thefrequency range that extends from f = 2000/V1/3to 2000 Hz,the absorption in the receiving room (as furnished withdiffusers) should be no greater than:A 5 V2/3/3 (1)where:V = the room volume, m3, andA = the sound absorption of the room, m2.6.4.1 For frequencies below f

34、 = 2000/V1/3, somewhat higherabsorption may be desirable to accommodate requirements ofother test methods (for example, ISO 3741); in any case, theabsorption should be no greater than three times the valuegiven by Eq 1.NOTE 3For frequencies above 2000 Hz, atmospheric absorption maymake it impossible

35、 to avoid a slightly higher value than that given in Eq1.6.5 During the sound pressure level and sound absorptionmeasurements in the receiving room the average temperatureshall be in the range 22 6 5C and the average relativehumidity shall be at least 30 %.6.6 During the sound pressure level and the

36、 correspondingsound absorption measurements, variations in temperature andhumidity in the receiving room shall not exceed 3C and 3 %relative humidity respectively. Temperature and humidity shallbe measured and recorded as often as necessary to ensurecompliance.6.6.1 If a relative humidity of at leas

37、t 30 % can not bemaintained in the receiving room, users of the test method shallverify by calculation that changes in the 10 log A1term (see12.4) due to changes in temperature and humidity do notexceed 0.5 dB.NOTE 4Procedures for calculating air absorption are described in TestMethod C 423.7. Test

38、Specimens7.1 The test specimen shall be prepared and described in thetest report in accordance with Annex A1 of Test Method E90.7.2 Size and MountingThe test specimen shall have aminimum lateral dimension of 2.4 m. An area of at least 10 m2is recommended. The test specimen shall include all of thees

39、sential constructional elements and surfacing materials nor-mally found in an actual installation. Some elements may haveto be reduced in size to fit each laboratorys test opening. Thetest specimen shall be sealed to prevent tapping machineoperational sounds from entering the room below. The speci-m

40、en shall be structurally isolated from the receiving room toavoid significant transmission of vibration from the specimenthrough the supporting structure to the room below.7.3 Floor-surfacing materials, such as vinyl, carpets andpads, especially when installed with adhesive, significantlyaffect the

41、response of the test specimen to impacts, both duringtest and in normal use. Consequently, such materials shall bedeemed parts of the test specimen. The materials and themanner of installing them shall be fully described in the testreport. The floor-surfacing material shall cover the whole testspeci

42、men, not merely the portion under the impact machine.8. Tapping Machine8.1 This test method is based on the use of a standardizedtapping machine that conforms to the following specifications:8.1.1 The tapping machine shall be motor-driven.8.1.2 The tapping machine shall have five hammers equallyspac

43、ed in a line. The distance between centerlines of neigh-boring hammers shall be 100 6 3 mm.8.1.3 Each hammer shall have an effective mass of 500 6 6g and shall fall freely from a height of 40 6 3 mm.8.1.4 The falling direction of the hammers shall be perpen-dicular to the test surface to within 6 0.

44、5.8.1.5 The part of the hammer carrying the impact surfaceshall be cylindrical with a diameter of 30 6 0.2 mm.8.1.6 The impact surface shall be of hardened steel and shallbe approximately spherical with a curvature radius of 500 6100 mm.NOTE 5The mean curvature radius for each hammer face may bedete

45、rmined using a spherometer or other means.8.1.7 The time between successive impacts shall be 100 620 ms.8.1.8 Since friction in the hammer guidance system canreduce the velocity of the hammer at impact, the tappingmachine shall be checked for friction between the hammersand the guidance system. Any

46、friction found should be elimi-nated or reduced as much as possible.8.1.9 Following adjustment of the hammer drop in accor-dance with the specifications, the tapping machine is ready foruse on any floor structure, including those surfaced with soft orresilient materials.NOTE 6The above requirements

47、are a subset of the ISO 140/6requirements.8.2 Tapping Machine PositionsThe tapping machine po-sitions and orientations described in the following must beused. Fig. 1 illustrates one case.8.2.1 Position 1The middle hammer of the tapping ma-chine shall be coincident with the midpoint of the floor area

48、,that is, the point of intersection of floor diagonals. In framedconstruction, adjust this point to the centerline of the closeststructural member or other support member, and arrange thetapping machine so that all hammers fall on the joist.8.2.2 Position 2Same as position 1, except rotate thetappin

49、g machine 90 about the axis of the middle hammer.8.2.3 Position 3Displace the tapping machine laterallyfrom position 1, such that the long dimension of the machine iscentered midway between and parallel to the central structuralmember. In the case of homogeneous concrete slab floors orsolid deck construction without joists, the lateral displacementof the tapping machine shall be 0.6 m from that of position 1.8.2.4 Position 4Position the tapping machine so that allhammers fall on a 45 radial line extending from the middlehammer point of position 1.
