RC, RC Classification,
Rumble, Hiss, RV:
Room Criteria is for rating room noise.
The rating is determined based on the PSIL value and gets the Classification
(R) for Rumble, if the spectrum is rich in low frequency sound (16 Hz to
500 Hz), the Classification (H) for Hiss, if the spectrum is rich in high
frequency sound (1 kHz to 4 kHz), the Classification (N) for Neutral if it is
not (R) or (H), or the Classification (RV) for Vibration and Rattle if the
spectrum at low frequencies (16 Hz to 63 Hz) is likely to produce audible
rattling in lightweight building elements.
The rating is defined in ANSI S12.2-1995
