Acoustics - Noise control design procedures for open plant
This International Standard defines the procedures for noise control of mainly open plants.It is applicable to the following:_ specification of procedures for noise control during engineering of a new plant and modification/extension ofexisting plants (construction noise procedures are outside the scope of this International Standard but shouldbe considered);_ definition of responsibilities of parties involved, viz. "end-user", "engineering contractor" and "equipmentsupplier";_ description of general procedures to arrive at noise requirements for individual equipment, on the basis ofoverall noise requirements for the plant.A schematic flowchart, reviewing the noise control process, is presented in annex A and a summary of action itemsis presented in annex B.NOTE Concerning specific engineering methods for the acoustic design and analysis of plants, use should be made ofother standards and textbooks.
