NF EN ISO 717-2
Acoustics - Rating of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements - Part 2 : impact sound insulation
ISO 717-2:2013: a) defines single-number quantities for impact sound insulation in buildings and of floors; b) gives rules for determining these quantities from the results of measurements carried out in one-third-octave bands in accordance with ISO 10140-3 and ISO 140-7, and in octave bands in accord-ance with that option in ISO 140-7 for field measurements only; c) defines single-number quantities for the impact sound reduction of floor coverings and floating floors calculated from the results of measurements carried out in accordance with ISO 10140-3; d) specifies a procedure for evaluating the weighted reduction in impact sound pressure level by floor coverings on lightweight floors.The single-number quantities in accordance with ISO 717-2:2013 are intended for rating impact sound insulation and for simplifying the formulation of acoustical requirements in building codes. An additional single-number evaluation in steps of 0,1 dB is indicated for the expression of uncertainty (except for spectrum adaptation terms).The required numerical values of the single-number quantities are specified according to varying needs.The rating of results from measurements carried out over an enlarged frequency range is described in an annex.A method for obtaining single-number quantities for bare heavy floors according to their performance in combination with floor coverings is described in a second annex.An example of the calculation of a single-number quantity is given in a third annex.

Le présent document amende la norme homologuée NF EN ISO 717-2, d'août 1997. Les parties existantes de l'ISO 717-1 et de l'ISO 717-2 relatives à l'arrondi des données ne sont pas très précises et peuvent donner lieu à plusieurs interprétations, en particulier lors de leur mise en application numérique dans les logiciels informatiques. Il définit une procédure d'évaluation de la réduction du niveau de bruit de choc pondéré par les revêtements de sol sur les planchers légers. Il donne également des instructions plus précises et apporte quelques modifications au document.
This document a) defines single-number quantities for impact sound insulation in buildings and of floors, b) gives rules for determining these quantities from the results of measurements carried out in one-third-octave bands in accordance with ISO 10140-3 and ISO 16283-2, and in octave bands in accordance with that option in ISO 16283-2 for field measurements only, c) defines single-number quantities for the impact sound reduction of floor coverings and floating floors calculated from the results of measurements carried out in accordance with ISO 10140-3, and d) specifies a procedure for evaluating the weighted reduction in impact sound pressure level by floor coverings on lightweight floors. The single-number quantities in accordance with this document are intended for rating impact sound insulation and for simplifying the formulation of acoustical requirements in building codes. An additional single-number evaluation in steps of 0,1 dB is indicated where it is needed for the expression of uncertainty (except for spectrum adaptation terms). Numerical values of the single-number quantities are specified where required for calculations. The rating of measurements over an enlarged frequency range is given in Annex A. A method for obtaining single-number quantities for bare heavy floors according to their performance in combination with floor coverings is given in Annex B. Example calculations of single-number quantities are given in Annex C. The rating of measurements with a heavy and soft impact source (rubber ball) is given in Annex D.
