Uncertainty evaluation in field measurements of airborne sound insulation
2008
The Brazilian Committee of Civil Engineering presented a set of standards concerning the evaluation of the performance of several topics for buildings up to five floors. The acoustic performance is one of them. The standards are in approval process and measurements in real buildings will be necessary. Different professionals using different equipment will emit certificates establishing which levels of insulation a certain flat provides and its uncertainties. The expanded measurement uncertainty can provide the basis to compare different measurement results for a same building. The international Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement, the ISO GUM, is the document that specifies how to determine and evaluate the uncertainty of a measurement result. The standards concerning sound insulation measurements are ISO 140 and ISO 18233. Uncertainty estimates are available only for the classical technique described in ISO 140, based in repeatability and reproducibility tests performed in laboratories....
