ASA S12.7-1986 (R2020) American National Standard for Methods for Measurement of Impulse Noise

standard by American National Standards of the Acoustical Society of America, 02/20/1986

Full Description

This standard describes methods for measurement of impulse noise and presentation of data. Its scope applies to all kinds of impulse noise, whether discrete event sources, such as quarry and mining explosions or sonic booms, or from multiple event sources such as pile drivers, riveting, or machine-gun firing, but not to sounds from other sources which have specific measurement standards based on the general methods for measurement of quasisteady noise. Data which may be reported include characteristics of the time variation of the sound pressure, with or without specific frequency weighting, and sound exposure level.
