EN 16951-1:2018 (E) 5 Introduction Noise barriers and related devices acting on sound propagation alongside railways should not only fulfil their acoustic function and structural design requirements in accordance with appropriate documents, but also maintain their performance during the required working life. The acoustic elements need to resist the actions of agents within the line side environment that could significantly degrade their performance. The acoustic characteristics of noise barriers and related devices acting on sound propagation can deteriorate significantly over the duration of their working life if they are not installed or maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations, or if the materials are not appropriate for the line side environment. All elements in the construction of noise barriers and related devices acting on sound propagation should be resistant to electrolytic or/and chemical corrosion and embrittlement, be dimensionally stable and have generally a high ageing resistance in many differing conditions. SIST EN 16951-1:2018



EN 16951-1:2018 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for assessing the working life and provides the relevant exposure conditions. Standards of construction and any material tests conducted should provide evidence of resistance to specified conditions selected from the following: I. Chemical Agents Location dependent II. De-icing salt Location/climate dependent III. Dirty water/dust Location/climate dependent IV. Dew Climate dependent V. Freeze/thaw Climate dependent VI. Cold Climate dependent VII. Heat Climate dependent VIII. UV Radiation Climate dependent IX. Traffic Vibration Location dependent X. Biological Process Climate dependent XI. Ozone Location dependent XII.

For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
