Page 4 Provläsningsexemplar / Preview Introduction Where a sound reflecting surface is installed along a road it may be effective to use sound absorbing devices on its traffic side to reduce additional noise nuisance caused by reflected sound. This treatment may be needed in the presence of the following : noise barriers, rocks or retaining walls that can reflect sound waves toward unprotected areas, vertical cuttings or reflective surfaces that face each other, tunnels and their approaches, traffic passing close to a barrier where reflections between the vehicles and the barrier may reduce effectiveness. This standard specifies a test method for assessing the sound absorption performance of noise reducing devices designed for roads (a measure of intrinsic performance). It is not concerned with determining in-situ performance (extrinsic performance) which additionally depends on factors which are not related to the product itself, e.g. the dimensions of the barrier and quality of installation work and site factors such as ground impedance, site geometry etc. The test is designed to allow the intrinsic sound absorption performance of the device to be measured and the resulting rating should aid the selection of devices for particular roadside applications. 1 Scope This standard specifies the laboratory method for measuring the sound absorption of flat noise barriers or flat cladding for retaining walls or tunnels. It covers the assessment of the intrinsic sound absorption performance of roadside noise reducing devices which can reasonably be assembled inside the testing facility described in EN 20354. The test method in EN 20354, referred to in this standard, is strictly valid only for plane absorbers and in particular excludes devices which act as weakly damped resonators. Some devices will depart significantly from these requirements and in these cases care is needed in interpreting the results. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies.
