Acoustics - Field measurement of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements - Part 3: Façade sound insulation (ISO 16283-3:2016)
This part of ISO 16283 specifies procedures to determine the airborne sound insulation of façade
elements (element methods) and whole façades (global methods) using sound pressure measurements.
These procedures are intended for room volumes in the range from 10 m3 to 250 m3 in the frequency
range from 50 Hz to 5 000 Hz.
The test results can be used to quantify, assess, and compare the airborne sound insulation in
unfurnished or furnished rooms where the sound field can or cannot approximate to a diffuse field. The
measured airborne sound insulation is frequency-dependent and can be converted into a single number
quantity to characterize the acoustic performance using the rating procedures in ISO 717-1.
The element methods aim to estimate the sound reduction index of a façade element, for example, a
window. The most accurate element method uses a loudspeaker as an artificial sound source. Other
less accurate element methods use available traffic noise. The global methods, on the other hand, aim to
estimate the outdoor/indoor sound level difference under actual traffic conditions. The most accurate
global methods use the actual traffic as sound source. A loudspeaker can be used as an artificial sound
source when there is insufficient level from traffic noise inside the room. An overview of the methods is
given in Table 1.
The element loudspeaker method yields an apparent sound reduction index which, under certain
circumstances, can be compared with the sound reduction index measured in laboratories in accordance
with ISO 10140. This method is the preferred method when the aim of the measurement is to evaluate
the performance of a specified façade element in relation to its performance in the laboratory.
The element road traffic method will serve the same purposes as the element loudspeaker method. It
is particularly useful when, for different practical reasons, the element loudspeaker method cannot be
used. These two methods will often yield slightly different results. The road traffic method tends to
result in lower values of the sound reduction index than the loudspeaker method. In Annex D, this road
traffic method is supplemented by the corresponding aircraft and railway traffic methods.
The global road traffic method yields the real reduction of a façade in a given place relative to a position
2 m in front of the façade. This method is the preferred method when the aim of the measurement is to
evaluate the performance of a whole façade, including all flanking paths, in a specified position relative
to nearby roads. The result cannot be compared with that of laboratory measurements.
The global loudspeaker method yields the sound reduction of a façade relative to a position that is 2 m
in front of the façade. This method is particularly useful when, for practical reasons, the real source
cannot be used; however, the result cannot be compared with that of laboratory measurements.
Akustik - Messung der Schalldämmung in Gebäuden und von Bauteilen am Bau - Teil 3: Fassadenschalldämmung (ISO 16283-3:2016)
Dieser Teil der ISO 16283 legt Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Luftschalldämmung von Fassadenbauteilen (Bauteilverfahren) und ganzen Fassaden (globale Verfahren) durch Schalldruckmessungen fest. Diese Verfahren sind für Raumvolumen im Bereich von 10 m³ bis 250 m³ und den Frequenzbereich von 50 Hz bis 5 000 Hz vorgesehen.
Die Prüfergebnisse können genutzt werden, um die Luftschalldämmung in unmöblierten und möblierten Räumen quantitativ zu bestimmen, zu beurteilen und miteinander zu vergleichen, wobei das Schallfeld annähernd einem diffusen Schallfeld entsprechen darf, dies jedoch nicht muss. Die gemessene Luftschalldämmung ist von der Frequenz abhängig und kann in eine Einzahlangabe umgewandelt werden, um unter Anwendung der Bewertungsverfahren nach ISO 717-1 die akustische Leistung zu charakterisieren.
Das Ziel der Bauteilverfahren besteht in der Abschätzung des Schalldämm-Maßes eines Fassadenbauteils, beispielsweise eines Fensters. Beim genauesten Bauteilverfahren kommt ein Lautsprecher als künstliche Schallquelle zum Einsatz. Weitere, weniger genaue Bauteilverfahren nutzen die vorliegenden Verkehrs-geräusche. Das Ziel der globalen Verfahren andererseits besteht in der Abschätzung der Differenz im Schallpegel im Gebäude und im Freien unter tatsächlichen Verkehrsbedingungen. Bei den genauesten globalen Verfahren wird der tatsächliche Verkehr als Schallquelle genutzt. Sofern der durch die Verkehrsgeräusche erzeugte Schallpegel innerhalb des Raums unzureichend ist, darf ein Lautsprecher als künstliche Schallquelle genutzt werden. Ein Überblick über die Verfahren ist in Tabelle 1 angegeben.
Das Bauteilverfahren mit Lautsprecher ergibt ein Bau-Schalldämm-Maß, das unter bestimmten Umständen mit dem nach ISO 10140 in Prüfständen gemessenen Schalldämm-Maß vergleichbar ist. Dieses Verfahren stellt das bevorzugte Verfahren dar, wenn das Ziel der Messung darin besteht, die Leistung eines festgelegten Fassadenbauteils im Verhältnis zu seiner Leistung im Prüfstand zu bewerten.
Das Bauteilverfahren mit Straßenverkehr dient demselben Zweck wie das Bauteilverfahren mit Lautsprecher. Es ist von besonderem Nutzen, wenn das Bauteilverfahren mit Lautsprecher aus verschiedenen praktischen Gründen nicht anwendbar ist. Die beiden Verfahren führen häufig zu geringfügig unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen. Das Verfahren mit Straßenverkehr weist eine Tendenz zu geringeren Werten des Schalldämm-Maßes als das Lautsprecherverfahren auf. In Anhang D wird dieses Straßenverkehrsverfahren durch die entsprechenden Luft- und Schienenverkehrsverfahren ergänzt.
Das globale Verfahren mit Straßenverkehr ergibt die reale Dämmung an einer Fassade an einem gegebenen Ort im Verhältnis zu einer Position 2 m vor der Fassade. Dieses Verfahren stellt das bevorzugte Verfahren dar, wenn das Ziel der Messung darin besteht, die Leistung der gesamten Fassade, einschließlich aller Flankenwege, an einer festgelegten Position im Verhältnis zu nahe gelegenen Straßen zu bewerten. Die Ergebnisse können nicht mit denen von Prüfstandsmessungen verglichen werden.
Das globale Verfahren mit Lautsprecher ergibt die Schalldämmung an einer Fassade im Verhältnis zu einer Position 2 m vor der Fassade. Dieses Verfahren ist von besonderem Nutzen, wenn die reale Quelle aus praktischen Gründen nicht anwendbar ist; die Ergebnisse können jedoch nicht mit denen von Prüfstands-messungen verglichen werden.

Acoustique - Mesurage in situ de l'isolement acoustique des bâtiments et des éléments de construction - Partie 3: Isolement aux bruits de façades (ISO 16283-3:2016)
ISO 16283-3:2016 spécifie les modes opératoires permettant de déterminer l'isolement acoustique aux bruits aériens des éléments de façade (méthodes par éléments) et des façades entières (méthodes globales) à l'aide de mesurages de la pression acoustique. Ces modes opératoires s'appliquent aux salles dont le volume est compris entre 10 m3 et 250 m3 aux fréquences comprises entre 50 Hz et 5 000 Hz.
Les résultats des essais peuvent être utilisés pour quantifier, évaluer et comparer l'isolement aux bruits aériens de salles non meublées ou meublées dans lesquelles le champ acoustique peut, ou ne peut pas, être assimilé à un champ diffus. L'isolement aux bruits aériens mesuré dépend de la fréquence et peut être converti en un indice unique qui caractérise la performance acoustique à l'aide des modes opératoires d'évaluation spécifiés dans l'ISO 717‑1.
Akustika - Terenska merjenja zvočne izolirnosti v stavbah in stavbnih elementih - 3. del: Izolirnost fasade (ISO 16283-3:2016)
Ta del standarda ISO 16283 določa postopke za določevanje izolirnosti fasadnih elementov (elementne metode) in celotnih fasad (globalne metode) pred zvokom v zraku na podlagi meritev zvočnega tlaka. Ti postopki so namenjeni prostorom s prostornino 10–250 m3 v frekvenčnem območju 50–5000 Hz.
Rezultate preskusa je mogoče uporabiti za kvantifikacijo, ovrednotenje in primerjavo izolirnosti pred zvokom v zraku v neopremljenih ali opremljenih prostorih, kjer je zvočno polje lahko podobno razpršenemu polju ali pa ne. Izmerjena izolirnost pred zvokom v zraku je odvisna od frekvence in jo je mogoče pretvoriti v količino, označeno z eno številko, za opredelitev akustičnih lastnosti na podlagi ocenjevalnih postopkov v standardu ISO 717-1.
Elementne metode so namenjene za oceno zvočne izolirnosti fasadnega elementa, npr. okna. Najnatančnejša elementna metoda uporablja zvočnik kot umetni vir zvoka. Druge manj natančne elementne metode uporabljajo razpoložljiv hrup prometa. Globalne metode po drugi strani so namenjene za oceno razlike v ravni zvoka na prostem/v zaprtih prostorih pri dejanskih razmerah v prometu. Najnatančnejše globalne metode uporabljajo dejanski promet kot vir zvoka. Kadar je raven hrupa prometa v zaprtem prostoru nezadostna, se lahko kot umetni vir zvoka uporabi zvočnik. Pregled metod je podan v preglednici 1.
Elementna metoda z zvočnikom poda privzeto gradbeno zvočno izolirnost, ki jo je mogoče v določenih
okoliščinah primerjati z zvočno izolirnostjo, izmerjeno v laboratorijih v skladu s standardom ISO 10140. Ta metoda je priporočljiva, kadar je namen meritve ocena zmogljivosti določenega fasadnega elementa glede na njegovo zmogljivost v laboratoriju.
Elementna metoda s cestnim prometom se uporablja za enake namene kot elementna metoda z zvočnikom. Uporabna je zlasti, kadar elementne metode z zvočnikom ni mogoče uporabiti zaradi različnih praktičnih razlogov. Rezultati obeh metod se ponavadi nekoliko razlikujejo. Vrednosti zvočne izolirnosti pri metodi s cestnim prometom so običajno nižje kot pri metodi z zvočnikom. V dodatku D je ta metoda s cestnim prometom nadomeščena z ustreznimi metodami z letalskim in železniškim prometom. Rezultat globalne metode s cestnim prometom je dejanska zvočna izolirnost fasade na danem mestu glede na položaj 2 m stran od fasade. Ta metoda je priporočljiva, kadar je namen meritve ocena zmogljivosti celotne fasade, vključno z vsemi stranskimi potmi, v določenem položaju glede na bližnje ceste. Tega rezultata ni mogoče primerjati z rezultati laboratorijskih meritev. Rezultat globalne metode z zvočnikom je dejanska zvočna izolirnost fasade glede na položaj 2 m stran od fasade. Ta metoda je uporabna zlasti, kadar dejanskega vira ni mogoče uporabiti zaradi praktičnih razlogov, vendar pa rezultata ni mogoče primerjati z rezultati laboratorijskih meritev.

Introduction
ISO 16283 (all parts) describes procedures for field measurements of sound insulation in buildings.
Airborne, impact, and façade sound insulation are described in ISO 16283-1, ISO 16283-2, and in this
part of ISO 16283, respectively.
Field sound insulation measurements that were described previously in ISO 140-4, ISO 140-5, and
ISO 140-7 were (a) primarily intended for measurements where the sound field could be considered
to be diffuse and (b) not explicit as to whether operators could be present in the rooms during the
measurement. ISO 16283 differs from ISO 140-4, ISO 140-5, and ISO 140-7 in that (a) it applies to rooms
in which the sound field can or cannot approximate to a diffuse field, (b) it clarifies how operators
can measure the sound field using a hand-held microphone or sound level metre, and (c) it includes
additional guidance that was previously contained in ISO 140-14.
NOTE Survey test methods for field measurements of façade sound insulation are dealt with in ISO 10052.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16283-3:2016(E)
Acoustics — Field measurement of sound insulation in
buildings and of building elements —
Part 3:
Façade sound insulation
1 Scope
This part of ISO 16283 specifies procedures to determine the airborne sound insulation of façade
elements (element methods) and whole façades (global methods) using sound pressure measurements.
3 3
These procedures are intended for room volumes in the range from 10 m to 250 m in the frequency
range from 50 Hz to 5 000 Hz.
The test results can be used to quantify, assess, and compare the airborne sound insulation in
unfurnished or furnished rooms where the sound field can or cannot approximate to a diffuse field. The
measured airborne sound insulation is frequency-dependent and can be converted into a single number
quantity to characterize the acoustic performance using the rating procedures in ISO 717-1.
The element methods aim to estimate the sound reduction index of a façade element, for example, a
window. The most accurate element method uses a loudspeaker as an artificial sound source. Other
less accurate element methods use available traffic noise. The global methods, on the other hand, aim to
estimate the outdoor/indoor sound level difference under actual traffic conditions. The most accurate
global methods use the actual traffic as sound source. A loudspeaker can be used as an artificial sound
source when there is insufficient level from traffic noise inside the room. An overview of the methods is
given in Table 1.
The element loudspeaker method yields an apparent sound reduction index which, under certain
circumstances, can be compared with the sound reduction index measured in laboratories in accordance
with ISO 10140. This method is the preferred method when the aim of the measurement is to evaluate
the performance of a specified façade element in relation to its performance in the laboratory.
The element road traffic method will serve the same purposes as the element loudspeaker method. It
is particularly useful when, for different practical reasons, the element loudspeaker method cannot be
used. These two methods will often yield slightly different results. The road traffic method tends to
result in lower values of the sound reduction index than the loudspeaker method. In Annex D, this road
traffic method is supplemented by the corresponding aircraft and railway traffic methods.
The global road traffic method yields the real reduction of a façade in a given place relative to a position
2 m in front of the façade. This method is the preferred method when the aim of the measurement is to
evaluate the performance of a whole façade, including all flanking paths, in a specified position relative
to nearby roads. The result cannot be compared with that of laboratory measurements.
The global loudspeaker method yields the sound reduction of a façade relative to a position that is 2 m
in front of the façade. This method is particularly useful when, for practical reasons, the real source
cannot be used; however, the result cannot be compared with that of laboratory measurements.

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 16283-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 43, Acoustics, Subcommittee SC 2, Building

Introduction
ISO 16283 (all parts) describes procedures for field measurements of sound insulation in buildings. Airborne,
impact and façade sound insulation are described in ISO 16283-1, ISO 16283-2 and ISO 16283-3,
respectively.
Field sound insulation measurements that were previously described in ISO 140-4, -5, and -7 were (a)
primarily intended for measurements where the sound field could be considered to be diffuse, and (b) not
explicit as to whether operators could be present in the rooms during the measurement. ISO 16283 differs
from ISO 140-4, -5, and -7 in that (a) it applies to rooms in which the sound field may, or may not approximate
to a diffuse field, (b) it clarifies how operators can measure the sound field using a hand-held microphone or
sound level meter and (c) it includes additional guidance that was previously contained in ISO 140-14.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 16283-3
Acoustics — Field measurement of sound insulation in
buildings and of building elements — Part 3: Façade sound
insulation
1 Scope
This part of ISO 16283 specifies procedures to determine the airborne sound insulation of facade elements
(element methods) and whole facades (global methods) using sound pressure measurements. These
3 3
procedures are intended for room volumes in the range from 10 m to 250 m in the frequency range from
50 Hz to 5 000 Hz.
The test results can be used to quantify, assess and compare the airborne sound insulation in unfurnished or
furnished rooms where the sound field may, or may not approximate to a diffuse field. The measured airborne
sound insulation is frequency-dependent and can be converted into a single number quantity to characterise
the acoustic performance using the rating procedures in ISO 717-1.
The element methods aim to estimate the sound reduction index of a façade element, for example a window.
The most accurate element method uses a loudspeaker as an artificial sound source. Other, less accurate,
element methods use available traffic noise. The global methods, on the other hand, aim to estimate the
outdoor/indoor sound level difference under actual traffic conditions. The most accurate global methods use
the actual traffic as sound source. A loudspeaker may be used as an artificial sound source when there is
insufficient level from traffic noise inside the room. An overview of the methods is given in Table 1.
The element loudspeaker method yields an apparent sound reduction index which, under certain
circumstances can be compared with the sound reduction index measured in laboratories in accordance with
ISO 10140. This method is the preferred method when the aim of the measurement is to evaluate the
performance of a specified façade element in relation to its performance in the laboratory.
The element road traffic method will serve the same purposes as the element loudspeaker method. It is
particularly useful when, for different practical reasons, the element loudspeaker method cannot be used.
These two methods will often yield slightly different results. The road traffic method tends to result in lower
values of the sound reduction index than the loudspeaker method. In Annex D this road traffic method is
supplemented by the corresponding aircraft and railway traffic methods.
The global road traffic method yields the real reduction of a façade in a given place relative to a position 2 m in
front of the façade. This method is the preferred method when the aim of the measurement is to evaluate the
performance of a whole façade, including all flanking paths, in a specified position relative to nearby roads.
The result cannot be compared with that of laboratory measurements.
The global loudspeaker method yields the sound reduction of a façade relative to a position that is 2 m in front
of the façade. This method is particularly useful when, for practical reasons, the real source cannot be used,
however the result cannot be compared with that of laboratory measurements.

4.2 Calibration
At the beginning and at the end of every measurement session and at least at the beginning and the end of
each measurement day, the entire sound pressure level measuring system shall be checked at one or more
frequencies by means of a sound calibrator meeting the requirements for a class 0 or class 1 instrument
according to IEC 60942. Each time the calibrator is used, the sound pressure level measured with the
calibrator should be noted in the field documentation of the operator. Without any further adjustment, the
difference between the readings of two consecutive checks shall be less or equal to 0,5 dB. If this value is
exceeded, the results of measurements obtained after the previous satisfactory check shall be discarded.
