Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Annex A
(normative)
Walls — Airborne sound insulation
A.1 Application
For walls and other partitions, ISO 10140-2 applies. This annex applies to lightweight twin leaf partitions, such
as those constructed of gypsum boards.
The quantity determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R is
given in ISO 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant clauses of the basic ISO 10140-2 shall always be followed.
A.2 Test element
2
The test opening for walls should be approximately 10 m .
A.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The sound reduction index of lightweight twin leaf partitions (e.g. twin leaf gypsum board walls) is influenced
by the mounting conditions in the test opening of the laboratory. Important installation parameters include the
niche depth and the position of the partition in relation to the acoustic break in the test aperture.

---------------------- Page: 15 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 10140-1:2010
ISO 10140-1:2010(E)
To improve the reproducibility between laboratories and facilitate comparison of sound reduction indices for
different lightweight double walls, the twin leaf partition shall not be mounted across the acoustic break of the
laboratory, but on the same side of the break, as indicated in Figure A.1. The aperture should meet the
requirements in ISO 10140-2.
Other mounting conditions may be used but shall be fully described in the test report.
NOTE 1 Mounting the lightweight partition with one leaf on one side and the other leaf on the other side of the acoustic
break can result in higher values for the sound reduction index.
NOTE 2 Other mounting conditions can be suitable for certain types of twin leaf walls, for example walls for
semi-detached houses where the leaves are vibrationally uncoupled (for example on separate foundations). In such cases,
the wall leaves can be mounted on each side of the acoustic break.
A.4 Test and operating conditions
The test and operating conditions are given in ISO 10140-2.
A.5 Test report
The test report is given in ISO 10140-2.

Annex B
(normative)
Doors — Airborne sound insulation
B.1 Application
This annex applies to internal and external doors (including door sets).
The quantity determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R is
given in ISO 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant clauses of the basic ISO 10140-2 shall always be followed.
NOTE For a definition of door, see ISO 1804 and EN 12519.
B.2 Test element
2
For most doors, a test opening with an area of less than 10 m is needed. The area of the test element, S, is
the area of the opening in the filler wall required to accommodate the door.
B.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The test opening for doors shall be arranged such that the lower edge is situated near to the level of the floor
of the test rooms and such that conditions in the building are reproduced. The door shall be installed for test
such that it can be opened and closed in the normal manner.
B.4 Test and operating conditions
The door shall be opened and closed at least five times immediately before testing.
B.5 Test report
The test report is given in ISO 10140-2.

Annex C
(normative)
Windows — Airborne sound insulation
C.1 Application
This annex applies to windows.
The quantity determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R is
given in ISO 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant clauses of ISO 10140-2 shall always be followed.
NOTE For a definition of window (terminology), see EN 12519.
C.2 Test element
The preferred dimensions of the test opening for a window are 1 250 mm ¥ 1 500 mm as for the specific
small-sized test opening described in ISO 10140-5, but variations from this size can be necessary in
recognition of national building practice. For windows, the test opening may be staggered as shown in
Figure 3 of ISO 10140-5:2010. In the case of a window assembly, dimensions may be chosen as
representative of the assembly used in practical circumstances. For windows, the area, S, is the area of the
opening in the filler wall required to accommodate the test element.
C.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The installation of a window assembly shall be as similar as possible to the method which would be used in
practice. When the window is mounted in the test opening, the niches on both sides of the windows shall have
different depths, preferably in a ratio of about 2:1, unless this conflicts with the particular design of the window.
However, it is expected that results obtained with niche depths of different ratios would differ.
The gap between the window and the test opening (about 10 mm to 13 mm around the window when mounted
in the test opening) should be filled with absorbing material (for example mineral wool) and made airtight using
an elastic sealant on both sides or in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
If the test element is intended to be readily openable, it shall be installed for the test in such that a way it can
be opened and closed in the normal manner.
C.4 Test and operating conditions
C.4.1 Conditioning
The sound insulation of certain glazing systems or elements, especially those incorporating laminated glass,
can depend on the room temperature during the measurements. The temperature of both rooms used for
measuring the sound insulation should be (20 ± 3) °C. The test elements should be stored for 24 h at the test
temperature. In addition, it can be advantageous to make measurements at temperatures similar to those for
which the test element is designed.

(normative)
Glazing — Airborne sound insulation
D.1 Application
This annex applies to glazing.
The quantity determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R is
given in ISO 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant clauses of ISO 10140-2 shall always be followed.
NOTE For a definition of glass (terminology), see EN 12758.
D.2 Test element
The dimensions of the test opening for glazing shall be 1 250 mm × 1 500 mm with an allowable tolerance on
each dimension of ± 50 mm, preferably maintaining the same aspect ratio. For glazing, the test opening shall
be staggered on both sides and on the top by a distance of between 60 mm and 65 mm. The glazing shall be
mounted in the smaller opening as shown in Figure D.1. For glazing, the area, S, is the area of the opening in
the filler wall required to accommodate the test element.
The specific small-sized test opening described in ISO 10140-5:2010, Figure 3, fulfils these criteria, and a test
opening in accordance with ISO 10140-5:2010, 3.3.2, shall be used.
NOTE Details of the measurement conditions for glazing are prescribed in order to ensure the best possible
comparison between results obtained by different laboratories.
D.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The glazing shall be installed into the test opening such that the niches on both sides of the pane have
different depths with a ratio of 2:1. A gap of about 10 mm shall remain between the pane and the reveal of the
test opening. This gap shall be filled with a type of putty, which shall be tested as described below. To fix the
glazing, two wooden beads (25 mm × 25 mm) shall be used (see Figure D.1). The space between the glazing
and the wooden beads shall be filled with putty about 5 mm thick. The beads shall cover not more than 15 mm

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 10140-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 43, Acoustics, Subcommittee SC 2, Building
acoustics.
ISO 10140 consists of the following parts, under the general title Acoustics — Laboratory measurement of
sound insulation of building elements:
⎯ Part 1: Test codes
⎯ Part 2: Measurement of airborne sound insulation
⎯ Part 3: Measurement of Impact sound insulation

ISO/DIS 10140-1
Introduction
ISO 140 is one of the basic series of standards in building acoustics. It currently has several parts describing
laboratory measurements, mounting conditions of test elements in the laboratory, and field measurements. To
improve the layout of Standards for laboratory measurements, to ensure consistency, and to simplify future
changes and additions, ISO/TC 43/SC 2 have created a new series of Standards, ISO 10140. The parts of
ISO 140 that are concerned with laboratory measurement of the acoustic performance of products (ISO 140-1,
-3, -6, -8, -10, -11, and -16) have been re-written and re-arranged with minimal alteration to the contents. The
new Standard, ISO 10140, consists of the parts stated in the Foreword.
ISO 10140-1 specifies the test codes for elements and products, including specific requirements for
preparation, mounting, operating and test conditions for elements and products. In the future, ISO 1040-1 will
be updated in cooperation with the relevant product Technical Committees. ISO 10140-2 and ISO 10140-3
contain the general procedures for airborne and impact sound insulation measurements respectively and refer
to ISO 10104-4 and ISO 10140-5 where appropriate. For elements and products without a specific test code
described in ISO 10140-1 it is still possible to apply ISO 10140-2 and ISO 10140-3. ISO 10140-4 contains the
basic measurement techniques and processes. ISO 10140-5 contains the requirements on test facilities and
equipment.
In the future it will be possible to insert other measurement techniques and standards into this series, for
example, sound insulation measurement using intensity techniques (ISO 15186) and rainfall noise
measurement (ISO 140-18).

(normative)
Walls – Airborne sound insulation
A.1 Application
This annex applies to walls. For walls in general, ISO/DIS 10140-2 is applied directly. This annex applies to
lightweight twin leaf partitions such as e.g. gypsum board walls.
The quantity to be determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R
is given in ISO/DIS 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant parts of ISO/DIS 10140-2 shall always be followed.
A.2 Test element
2
The test opening for walls should be approximately 10 m .
A.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The sound reduction index of lightweight twin leaf partitions (e.g. twin leaf gypsum board walls) is influenced
by the mounting conditions in the test opening of the laboratory. Important installation parameters include the
niche depth and the position of the partition in relation to the acoustic break in the test aperture.

oSIST prEN ISO 10140-1:2009
ISO/DIS 10140-1
To improve the reproducibility between laboratories and facilitate comparison of sound reduction indices for
different lightweight double walls, the twin leaf partition shall not be mounted across the acoustic break of the
laboratory, but on the same side of the break as indicated in Figure A.1. The aperture should meet the
requirements in ISO/DIS 10140-2.
Other mounting conditions may be used but shall be fully described in the test report.
NOTE 1 Mounting the lightweight partition with one leaf on one side and the other leaf on the other side of the acoustic
break can result in higher values for the sound reduction index.
NOTE 2 Other mounting conditions may be suitable for certain types of twin leaf walls, for example, walls for semi-
detached houses where the leaves are vibrationally uncoupled (for example on separate foundations). In such cases the
wall leaves can be mounted on each side of the acoustic break.

Doors – Airborne sound insulation
B.1 Application
This Annex applies to internal and external doors (including doorsets).
The quantity to be determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R
is given in ISO/DIS 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant parts of the basic standard ISO/DIS 10140-2 shall always be followed.
NOTE A definition of doors is found in ISO 1804:1972 and in EN 12519:2004 (see B.6).
B.2 Test element
2
For most doors, a test opening with an area of less than 10 m is appropriate. The area of the test element, S,
is the area of the opening in the filler wall required to accommodate the door.
B.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The test opening for doors shall be so arranged that the lower edge is situated near to the level of the floor of
the test rooms such that conditions in the building are reproduced. The door shall be installed for test so that it
can be opened and closed in the normal manner.
B.4 Test and operating conditions
The door shall be opened and closed at least five times immediately before testing.

(normative)
Windows – Airborne sound insulation
C.1 Application
This annex applies to windows.
The quantity to be determined is the sound reduction index, R, as a function of frequency. The definition of R
is given in ISO/DIS 10140-2.
The general guidelines in the relevant parts of ISO/DIS 10140-2 shall always be followed.
NOTE A definition of windows (terminology) is given in EN 12519:2004 (see Bibliography).
C.2 Test element
The preferred dimensions of the test opening for a window are 1 250 mm × 1 500 mm, but variations from this
size may be necessary in recognition of National building practice. For windows, the test opening may be
staggered and this is preferred for certification purposes. In the case of a window assembly, dimensions may
be chosen to be representative of the assembly used in practical circumstances. For windows the area, S, is
the area of the opening in the filler wall required to accommodate the test element.
C.3 Boundary and mounting conditions
The installation of a window assembly shall be as similar as possible to the method which would be used in
practice. When the window is mounted in the test opening, the niches on both sides of the windows shall
have different depths, preferably in a ratio of about 2:1, unless this conflicts with the particular design of the
window. However, it is to be expected that results obtained with niche depths of different ratios will differ.
The gap between the window and the test opening (about 10 mm to 13 mm around the window when
mounted in the test opening) should be filled with absorbing material (for example, mineral wool) and made
airtight using an elastic sealant on both sides or in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
If the test element is intended to be readily openable, it shall be installed for test so that it can be opened and
closed in the normal manner.
C.4 Test and operating conditions
C.4.1 Conditioning
The sound insulation of certain glazing systems or elements, especially those incorporating laminated glass,
may depend on the room temperature during the measurements. The temperature of both rooms used for
measuring the sound insulation should be (20 ± 3)°C. The test elements should be stored for 24 hours at the
test temperature. In addition, it can be advantageous to make measurements at temperatures similar to those
for which the test element is designed to be used.
