Acoustics - Field measurement of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements - Part 2: Impact sound insulation (ISO 16283-2:2018)
This document specifies procedures to determine the impact sound insulation using sound pressure
measurements with an impact source operating on a floor or stairs in a building. 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 impact sound insulation in
unfurnished or furnished rooms where the sound field can approximate to a diffuse field.
Akustik - Messung der Schalldämmung in Gebäuden und von Bauteilen am Bau - Teil 2: Trittschalldämmung (ISO 16283-2:2018)
Dieses Dokument legt Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Trittschalldämmung durch Schalldruckmessungen mit einer auf einer Decke oder Treppen in einem Gebäude wirkenden Trittschallquelle 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 Trittschalldämmung in unmöblierten und möblierten Räumen quantitativ zu bestimmen, zu beurteilen und miteinander zu vergleichen, wobei das Schallfeld etwa einem diffusen Schallfeld entsprechen kann.
Acoustique - Mesurage in situ de l'isolation acoustique des bâtiments et des éléments de construction - Partie 2: Isolation des bruits d'impacts (ISO 16283-2:2018)
Le présent document spécifie les modes opératoires permettant de déterminer l'isolation des bruits d'impacts à l'aide de mesurages de la pression acoustique avec une source d'impacts agissant sur un sol ou sur un escalier à l'intérieur d'un bâtiment. Ces modes opératoires s'appliquent aux pièces dont le volume est compris entre 10 m3 et 250 m3 et dont la fréquence est comprise entre 50 Hz et 5 000 Hz. Les résultats des essais peuvent être utilisés pour quantifier, évaluer et comparer l'isolation des bruits d'impacts dans des pièces non meublées ou meublées où le champ acoustique peut être assimilé à un champ diffus.
Akustika - Terenska merjenja zvočne izolirnosti v stavbah in zvočne izolirnosti stavbnih elementov - 2. del: Izolirnost pred udarnim zvokom (ISO 16283-2:2018)
Ta dokument določa postopke za določanje izolirnosti pred udarnim zvokom z meritvami zvočnega tlaka z virom udarnega zvoka v hodnikih ali na stopnicah v stavbi. 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 udarnim zvokom v neopremljenih ali opremljenih prostorih, kjer je zvočno polje lahko podobno razpršenemu polju.

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, this document (ISO 16283-2)
and ISO 16283-3, respectively.
1) 2)
Field sound insulation measurements that were described previously in ISO 140-4 , ISO 140-5 , and
3)
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 (all parts) differs from ISO 140-4, ISO 140-5, and ISO 140-7 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;
4)
c) it includes additional guidance that was previously contained in ISO 140-14 .
NOTE Survey test methods for field measurements of airborne and impact sound insulation are dealt with in
ISO 10052.
Two impact sources are described: the tapping machine and the rubber ball. These impact sources do
not exactly replicate all possible types of real impacts on floors or stairs in buildings.
The tapping machine can be used to assess a variety of light, hard impacts such as footsteps from
walkers wearing hard-heeled footwear or dropped objects. A single number quantity can be calculated
using the rating procedures in ISO 717-2. This single number quantity links the measured impact
sound insulation using the tapping machine to subjective assessment of general impacts in dwellings
that occur on floors or stairs in a building. The tapping machine is also well-suited to the prediction
of impact sound insulation using ISO 12354-2. These two aspects facilitate the specification of impact
sound insulation in national building requirements using only measurements with the tapping machine
as an impact source.
The rubber ball can be used to assess heavy, soft impacts such as from walkers in bare feet or children
jumping, as well as quantifying absolute values that can be related to human disturbance in terms
of a Fast time-weighted maximum sound pressure level. Calculation procedures for a single number
quantity do not currently exist in an International Standard.

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 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 (all parts) differs from ISO 140-4, ISO 140-5, and ISO 140-7 in that a) it
applies to rooms in which the sound field might, or might 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.
NOTE Survey test methods for field measurements of airborne and impact sound insulation are dealt with in
ISO 10052.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 16283-2:2017(E)
Acoustics — Field measurement of sound insulation in buildings
and of building elements — Part 2: Impact sound insulation
1 Scope
This part of ISO 16283 specifies procedures to determine the impact sound insulation using sound
pressure measurements with an impact source operating on a floor or stairs in a building. 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 impact sound
insulation in unfurnished or furnished rooms where the sound field might, or might not approximate to
a diffuse field.
Two impact sources are described: the tapping machine and the rubber ball. These impact sources do
not exactly replicate all possible types of real impacts on floors or stairs in buildings.
The tapping machine can be used to assess a variety of light, hard impacts such as footsteps from
walkers wearing hard-heeled footwear or dropped objects. A single number quantity can be calculated
using the rating procedures in ISO 717-2. This single number quantity links the measured impact sound
insulation using the tapping machine to subjective assessment of general impacts in dwellings that
occur on floors or stairs in a building. The tapping machine is also well-suited to the prediction of
impact sound insulation using ISO 15712-2. These two aspects facilitate the specification of impact
sound insulation in national building requirements using only measurements with the tapping machine
as an impact source.
The rubber ball can be used to assess heavy, soft impacts such as from walkers in bare feet or children
jumping, as well as quantifying absolute values that can be related to human disturbance in terms of a
Fast time-weighted maximum sound pressure level. At present, calculation procedures for a single
number quantity do not currently exist in an ISO Standard.

4 Instrumentation
4.1 General
The instruments for measuring sound pressure levels, including microphone(s) as well as cable(s),
windscreen(s), recording devices and other accessories, if used, shall meet the requirements for a class
0 or 1 instrument in accordance with IEC 61672-1 for random incidence application.
Filters shall meet the requirements for a class 0 or 1 instrument in accordance with IEC 61260.
The reverberation time measurement equipment shall comply with the requirements defined in
ISO 3382-2.
The impact sources shall meet the requirements given in Annex A.
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 1 instrument
in accordance with 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.

4.3 Verification
Compliance of the sound pressure level measuring instrument, the filters and the sound calibrator with
the relevant requirements shall be verified by the existence of a valid certificate of compliance. If
applicable, random incidence response of the microphone shall be verified by a procedure from
IEC 61183. All compliance testing shall be conducted by a laboratory being accredited or otherwise
nationally authorized to perform the relevant tests and calibrations and ensuring metrological
traceability to the appropriate measurement standards.
NOTE Unless national regulations dictate otherwise, it is recommended that the sound calibrator be
calibrated at intervals not exceeding one year, the compliance of the instrumentation system with the
requirements of IEC 61672–1 should be verified at intervals not exceeding two years, and the compliance of the
filter set with the requirements of IEC 61260 should be verified at intervals not exceeding two years.
5 Frequency range
5.1 Tapping machine as the impact source
All quantities shall be measured using one-third octave band filters having at least the following centre
frequencies, in hertz:
100, 125, 160, 200, 250, 315, 400, 500, 630, 800, 1 000, 1 250, 1 600, 2 000, 2 500, 3 150
If additional information in the low-frequency range is required, use one-third octave band filters with
the following centre frequencies, in hertz:
50, 63, 80
If additional information in the high-frequency range is required, use one-third octave band filters with
the following centre frequencies, in hertz:
4 000, 5 000
NOTE Measurement of additional information in the low- and high-frequency ranges is optional.
5.2 Rubber ball as the impact source
All quantities shall be measured using one-third octave or octave band filters.
One-third octave band filters shall have at least the following centre frequencies, in hertz:
50, 63, 80, 100, 125, 160, 200, 250, 315, 400, 500, 630
6 General
Determination of the impact sound insulation in accordance to this part of ISO 16283 requires that one
room is chosen as the receiving room into which sound is radiated due to an impact source operating on
a partition. The room or space in which the impact source is operated is referred to as the source room.
The measurements that are required include the sound pressure levels in the receiving room with the
impact source operating, the background noise levels in the receiving room when the impact source is
switched off and the reverberation times in the receiving room.
Two impact sources are described: the tapping machine and the rubber ball.
Two measurement procedures are described that shall be used for the sound pressure level, the
reverberation time and the background noise; a default procedure and an additional low-frequency
procedure.
For the sound pressure level and the background noise, the default procedure requires measurements
to be taken in the central zone of a room at positions away from the room boundaries. With the tapping

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
oSIST prEN ISO 16283-2:2017
ISO/DIS 16283-2:2017(E)
machine as the impact source, the default procedure for all frequencies is to obtain the energy-average
sound pressure level using a fixed microphone or a manually-held microphone moved from one
position to another, an array of fixed microphones, a mechanized continuously moving microphone or a
manually scanned microphone. With the rubber ball as the impact source, the default procedure for all
frequencies is to obtain the energy-average sound pressure level using a fixed microphone or a
manually-held microphone moved from one position to another or an array of fixed microphones.
For the sound pressure level and the background noise with the tapping machine as the impact source,
the low-frequency procedure shall be used for the 50 Hz, 63 Hz, and 80 Hz one-third octave bands in the
3
receiving room when its volume is smaller than 25 m (calculated to the nearest cubic metre). This
procedure should be carried out in addition to the default procedure and requires additional
measurements of the sound pressure level in the corners of the receiving room using either a fixed
microphone or a manually-held microphone.
NOTE 1 The low-frequency procedure is necessary in small rooms due to large spatial variations in the sound
pressure level of the modal sound field. In these situations, corner measurements are used to improve the
repeatability, reproducibility and relevance to room occupants.
NOTE 2 The low-frequency procedure is not used with the rubber ball because no link has yet been shown
between any combination of measurements from the corners and central zone of a room for the maximum Fast
time-weighted sound pressure level and the maximum Fast time-weighted sound pressure level that is spatially
averaged over the entire room volume.
NOTE 3 If necessary to avoid hearing damage, hearing protection is worn by the operator when measuring the
sound pressure level in the source room and, if necessary, when measuring reverberation times in the receiving
room. When measuring sound pressure levels in the receiving room that will not cause hearing damage it is
advisable to remove any hearing protection so that the operator is aware of short external noise events that could
invalidate the measurement as well as helping the operator to minimize self-generated noise.
For the reverberation time, the low-frequency procedure shall be used for the 50 Hz, 63 Hz, and 80 Hz
3
one-third octave bands in the receiving room when its volume is smaller than 25 m (calculated to the
nearest cubic metre).
If using methods of signal processing for reverberation times described in ISO 18233, the
measurements shall be carried out using fixed microphones and shall not use a mechanized
continuously-moving microphone, manually-held microphone or a manually-scanned microphone.
The sound fields in typical rooms will rarely approximate to a diffuse sound field over the entire
frequency range from 50 Hz to 5000 Hz. The default and low-frequency procedures allow for
measurements to be taken without any knowledge as to whether the sound field can be considered as
diffuse or non-diffuse. For this reason, the sound field should not be modified for the purpose of the test
by temporarily introducing additional furniture or diffusers into the receiving room.
NOTE 4 If measurements with additional diffusion are required, for example due to regulatory requirements or
because the test result is to be compared with a laboratory measurement on a similar
