This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by

19、September 2015 and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2015. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such

20、 patent rights. This document supersedes CEN/TS 1793-4:2003. The major changes compared to the previous published version are: the airborne sound insulation characteristics of the reference wall are specified in terms of the minimum values of the Sound Insulation Index, measured according to EN 1793

EN 1793-4:2015 (E)BS EN 1793-4:2015Introduction Part of the market of road traffic noise reducing devices is constituted of products to be added on the top of noise reducing devices and intended to contribute to sound attenuat

29、ion acting primarily on the diffracted sound field. These products will be called added devices. This European Standard has been developed to specify a test method for determining the acoustic performance of added devices. The test method can be applied in situ, i.e. where the traffic noise reducing

30、 devices and the added devices are installed. The method can be applied without damaging the traffic noise reducing devices or the added devices. The method can be used to qualify products before the installation along roads as well as to verify the compliance of installed added devices to design sp

31、ecifications. Repeated application of the method can be used to verify the long term performance of added devices. This method could be used to qualify added devices for other applications, e.g. to be installed along railways or nearby industrial sites. In this case, special care needs to be taken i

32、nto account in considering the location of the noise sources and the single-number ratings should be calculated using an appropriate spectrum. No other national or international standard exists about the subject of this European Standard. EN 1793-4:2015 (E)BS EN 1793-4:20151 Scope This European Stan

33、dard describes a test method for determining the intrinsic characteristics of sound diffraction of added devices installed on the top of traffic noise reducing devices. The test method prescribes measurements of the sound pressure level at several reference points near the top edge of a noise reduci

34、ng device with and without the added device installed on its top. The effectiveness of the added device is calculated as the difference between the measured values with and without the added devices, correcting for any change in height (the method described gives the acoustic benefit over a simple b

35、arrier of the same height; however, in practice the added device can raise the height and this could provide additional screening depending on the source and receiver positions). The test method is intended for the following applications: preliminary qualification, outdoors or indoors, of added devi

36、ces to be installed on noise reducing devices; determination of sound diffraction index difference of added devices in actual use; comparison of design specifications with actual performance data after the completion of the construction work; verification of the long term performance of added device

37、s (with a repeated application of the method); interactive design process of new products, including the formulation of installation manuals. The test method can be applied both in situ and on samples purposely built to be tested using the method described here. Results are expressed as a function o

38、f frequency, in one-third octave bands between 100 Hz and 5 kHz. If it is not possible to get valid measurements results over the whole frequency range indicated, the results shall be given in the restricted frequency range and the reasons of the restriction(s) shall be clearly reported. A single-nu

39、mber rating is calculated from frequency data.
