Construction products acoustic tests are performed to evaluate the acoustic quality of materials and products to reduce the effect of noise. The acoustic characteristics of noise-emitting products and acoustic insulation materials are basically made for two purposes: to increase the competitiveness of the manufacturers and to comply with the current regulations.
The assessment of acoustic behavior is carried out to determine the sound power level, sound absorption, acoustic transmission or acoustic attenuation in residential, office or work environments.
Advanced laboratories provide construction products acoustical testing services for material manufacturers, engineering companies, government agencies and technical control organizations. These services include acoustic simulation studies, management of comprehensive verification programs, design, calculation and production of test equipment, preparation of post-processing test report and product development consultancy.
Laboratories measure the noise insulation of building materials from the air both in the laboratory environment and in the field. For this purpose, facade and roof systems, doors and windows, vertical and horizontal internal partitions, traffic noise barriers, wall coverings, floor coverings and suspended ceilings are tested. In addition, acoustic absorption measurements are made in materials and elements.
In the meantime, acoustic pressure and power measurements emitted by noise sources are made. In this context, electrical and electronic equipment, automotive industry materials, sound sources and building equipment are tested.
The following are a few standards for building products acoustic testing by competent authorities:
TS EN ISO 10140 Acoustics - Laboratory measurement of sound insulation in building elements
TS EN ISO 3741 Acoustics - Determination of sound power levels of noise sources using sound pressure - Precision methods for ringing chambers
TS EN ISO 354 Acoustics - Measurement of sound absorption in the ringing room
TS EN ISO 11691 Acoustics - Measurement of insertion loss of flow-through duct silencers - Laboratory research method
The application is received, the contract and then the product, vehicle and vehicles for which, what kind of service is determined exactly.
The necessary laboratory environment is prepared and the products, tools and instruments requested by the organization are tested by experts with the reference of the existing standards and measurements are made.
The data obtained as a result of meticulously completed tests, measurements and analyzes are evaluated and accredited approved reports are submitted by expert engineers.
