The prediction models of the sounds levels due to service equipment in buildings, given by EN 12354-5:2009, need a variety of input data to characterize sources and structures.

Abstract
The prediction models of the sounds levels due to service equipment in buildings, given by EN 12354-5:2009, need a variety of input data to characterize sources and structures. The early applications of these models highlighted some of the difficulties in obtaining several input data, to characterize structure-borne sound sources and their interaction with building supporting elements, as happened for the early applications of the first part of series EN 12354. The basic idea of this study derived from to the possibility to apply one of the measurement methods of the characteristic structural sound power given by EN 12354-5 to characterize a structure-borne sound source and its interaction with building supporting elements to obtain the necessary input data for using the prediction model.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
