Glass in building - Glazing and airborne sound insulation - Measurement of the mechanical impedance of laminated glass

ISO 16940:2008 describes a method for the measurement of the loss factor and the equivalent bending rigidity modulus of laminated glass test pieces. The aim is to compare the properties of interlayers. These two parameters (and others such as density and thicknesses of glass components) can be related to the sound transmission loss (STL) of the glazing itself.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
