Corner measurement for small rooms

, the engineer-

ing Standard ISO 16283-2 requires additional meas-
urements in the corner of the receiving room. These 
measurements are not possible with the Nor140 Build-
ing Acoustic mode.

However, by measuring the levels and reverbera-

tion time in mode 1 and mode 2 respectively, these 
additional results may be included in the final calcula-
tion when transferred to the post-processing software 
NorBuild or Nor850 BA-1.

Partly re-use of 
previous measurements

When making several sound insulations tests where ei-
ther the source or receiving room is used in both tests, 
it is convenient to re-use the averaged source level 
and/or the averaged reverberation time from the first 
measurement. By moving the cursor to either L

1

, L

2

, T 

or L

b

 before pressing the 

DEL

 key the corrected aver-

aged levels from the first measurement may be deleted 
by confirming the delete process. Thereafter the new 
measurements for the second insulation test are repeat-
ed for the receiving room levels or reverberation times.

Alternatively, each measurement at level or reverber-

ation may be stored individually for later re-use by the 
RECALL feature. This is particularly useful for re-use of 
reverberation time measurements for both airborne and 
impact insulation using the same receiving room.

Facade insulation

General 

The facade insulation may be measured using the 
modes for airborne sound insulation − the outdoor 
will then act as the source room. See ISO10052 and 
ISO 140-5 as appropriate for further details regarding 
requirements for the noise generating equipment and 
the selection of microphone positions.

Use of traffic noise for facade measurement is not 

covered in this description, as this requires simultane-
ous measurement in- and outdoor. However, this can 
be achieved by using two Nor140 sound level meters. 
Please contact your local Norsonic office for further in-
formation on such systems.
