EN ISO 10140-5 Acoustics - Laboratory Measurement of Sound Insulation of Building Elements

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of EN ISO 10140-5 testing. This standard covers laboratory testing facilities and equipment for sound insulation measurements of building elements such as:

EN ISO 10140-5 Acoustics - Laboratory Measurement of Sound Insulation of Building Elements

  • Components and materials;
  • Structural elements;
  • Technical elements (small structural elements);
  • Sound insulation improvement systems.

Applicable to laboratory testing facilities with suppressed radiation from side elements and structural isolation between source and receiver rooms.

This standard specifies the qualification procedures to be used during the commissioning of a new test facility with equipment for sound insulation measurements. These procedures are intended to be repeated periodically to ensure that there are no problems with the equipment and testing facility.

The laboratory test facility shall consist of two adjacent reverberation chambers with a test opening between which the test element is placed. The area of ​​the test aperture may vary depending on the type of test element. This document describes full-size test apertures, a special small-size test aperture, and alternative reduced-size test apertures.

EN ISO 10140-5 may include requirements for documenting test procedures, conditions and results. Proper documentation is crucial to ensure traceability, repeatability and comparability of sound insulation measurements.

Test facilities and equipment must comply with specified requirements to ensure consistency and reliability in sound insulation testing. Adherence to the standard is important to obtain meaningful and comparable results across different laboratories.
