| Abstract | Many of the commonly used measurement methods in room and building acoustics are standardized in international standards published by ASTM International or the International Standardization Organization (ISO). This paper will provide an overview of the ASTM standards on sound transmission in buildings (developed by ASTM committee E33.03) and their ISO counterparts (developed by ISO/TC 43/SC 2), highlighting similarities and notable differences. The need for ASTM standards equivalent to the ISO 12354 series for estimating the acoustic performance of buildings from the performance of elements is discussed. For laboratory sound insulation tests, the analysis is carried further. Based on a large database of sound insulation tests conducted at the National Research Council Canada, the single-number ratings for airborne sound insulation of walls and floors are compared. |
