ASTM E 989-06 (2012), Classification for Determination of Impact Insulation Class (IIC)

ASTM E 2235-04 (2012) Standard Test Method for Determination of Decay Rates for Use in

Sound Insulation Test Methods

Test Procedure

All testing was conducted in the VT test chambers at Intertek-ATI located in York,

Pennsylvania. The microphones were calibrated before conducting the tests.

The airborne transmission loss test was conducted in accordance with the ASTM E 90 test

method using the single direction method. Two background noise sound pressure level and five

sound absorption measurements were conducted at each of five microphone positions. Four

sound pressure level measurements were made simultaneously in both rooms, at each of five

microphone positions.

Test Methods

The acoustical tests were conducted in accordance with the following standards. The equipment

listed in the attachments meets the requirements of the following standards.

ASTM E 90-09, Standard Test Method for Laboratory Measurement of Airborne Sound

Transmission Loss of Building Partitions

ASTM E 413-10, Classification for Rating Sound Insulation

ASTM E 492-09, Standard Test Method for Laboratory Measurement of Impact Sound

Report Date 03/03/16

Revision Date 04/29/16

Project Scope

Architectural Testing, Inc., a subsidiary of Intertek (Intertek-ATI), was contracted to conduct

airborne sound transmission loss and impact sound transmission tests. The complete test data is

included as attachments to this report. The client provided the test specimen. The specimen was

constructed on the date of testing.

Test Procedure (Continued)

The impact sound transmission test was conducted in accordance with the ASTM E 492 test

method. Two background noise sound pressure level, two sound pressure level measurements

with the tapping machine operating at each position specified by ASTM E 492, and five sound

absorption measurements were conducted at each of five microphone positions.

The air temperature and relative humidity conditions were monitored and recorded during all

measurements.
