Railway Applications - Track - Noise Barriers and Related Devices Acting on Airborne Sound Propagation - Non-Acoustic Performance - Part 3: General Safety and Environmental Requirements
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 16727-3 standard focuses on establishing minimum requirements and criteria for assessing the general safety and environmental performance of noise barriers and related devices that affect airborne sound propagation in railway track environments. While the standard provides guidelines for typical rail-side conditions, it also acknowledges the possibility of more challenging conditions, which should be taken into consideration by the designer.
The standard includes appropriate test methods for determining the performance of noise barriers and related devices. However, it also allows for a declaration of material characteristics to inform designers on specific aspects. This approach ensures that the safety and environmental requirements of noise barriers and related devices are met and that the necessary information is provided to the designers.
