Railway applications - Track - Noise barriers and related devices acting on airborne sound propagation - Test method for determining the acoustic performance - Part 2: Intrinsic characteristics - Airborne sound insulation in the laboratory under diffuse sound field conditions
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 16272-2 standard focuses on testing the acoustic performance of noise barriers and related devices in railway applications. It specifically addresses the airborne sound insulation capabilities of these barriers under diffuse sound field conditions, using a laboratory testing method. The standard specifies the procedure for measuring the intrinsic characteristics of noise barriers and related devices, and outlines the requirements for the testing facility.
The standard emphasizes that the testing is limited to noise barriers and related devices specifically designed for railways, which can be assembled inside the testing facility as described in EN ISO 10140-3. It excludes other noise-reducing devices such as those used for attenuating ground-borne vibration and on-board devices.
