Book excerpt: This SAE Standard sets forth measurement procedures and instrumentation to be used for determining a "representative" sound level during a representative time period at selected measurement locations on a construction site boundary. The document is not intended for use in determining occupational hearing damage risk. Determination of a representative time period is left to the judgment of the user. SAE J1075 is being reaffirmed due to its continued value as a standardized test method for measuring the non-specific noise levels around the perimeter of a work site. The methods and technology used within this test standard are unchanged and are not anticipated to change in the near future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: As sound levels become elevated and undesirable, they are typically referred to as noise. The construction industry has many sources of noise. For years, workers have been exposed to these elevated levels and have experienced noise-induced hearing loss. Usually the hearing impairment in workers is due to prolonged exposure to hazardous noise levels in conjunction with neglecting to use hearing protection devices. Research has shown that pieces of equipment commonly used in construction produce noise levels that are considered hazardous. My research measured the noise levels on construction sites during common activities and analyzes how the levels diminish with distance. The results show that many common construction activities are performed at noise levels that will result in hearing loss if hearing conservation efforts are not implemented.

Download or read book Acoustics Measurement of Airborne Noise Emitted By Construction Equipment Intended for Outdoor Use Method for Determining Compliance With Noise Limits written by SLTC - Earth Moving Machinery Sound Level and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SAE Standard describes a method for measuring the weighted sound pressure levels at prescribed microphone positions in the proximity of a device or machine for outdoor use, in order to determine compliance with noise limits. The A-weighted sound power level of the source is calculated from the measured values. NOTES:1. When nine or more microphone positions are prescribed in the proximity of the source (as in Section 7), the A-weighted sound power levels determined in accordance with this document tend to result in standard deviations less than approximately 2 dB, provided that the spectrum does not contain pronounced discrete frequencies; if it does, the magnitude of the uncertainties will be larger and no general rules for the magnitude of the uncertainties can be given. These standard deviations reflect the cumulative effects of all causes of measurement uncertainty, excluding variations in the sound power level from machine to machine or from test to test, which may be caused, for example, by changes in the mounting or operating conditions of the source. 2. For measurements made using a hemispherical measurement suface, the directivity index of the source may be calculated according to the description of appendix B. 3. Measurement of A-weighted sound pressure levels at the operator's postion(s) is not described in this document. 4. The results of noise measurements made according to this document are obtained under prescribed conditions and iwll not necessarily correspond to the noise experienced from the equipment when it is in operation on a construction site.

Download or read book Sound Measurement Off Road Work Machines Exterior written by OPTC3, Lighting and Sound Committee and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SAE Standard sets forth the instrumentation and procedure to be used in measuring the exterior sound pressure levels for self-propelled off-road work machines as defined in sections 1, 3, 5 and 6 of SAE J1116. This document does not address the operation of safety devices such as backup alarms, horns, or accessories. The sound levels obtained by using the test procedures set forth in this document are repeatable and are representative of the higher range of sound levels generated by machines under actual field operating conditions. Due to the variability of field operating conditions, this data is not intended to be used for construction site boundary noise evaluations. The test method defined within SAE J88 has been developed and used for nearly than 40 years. The last update to SAE J88 was in 2006 which updated references to align with modern standards. With no changes in the test method or references, SAE J88 should be stabilized.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis report describes current practice in mitigating nighttime construction nuisances such as noise, vibration, light, and dust. Roadway construction work is increasingly done at night to mediate traffic congestion; however, this trend also increases the potential for disturbing adjacent property owners. This report will be of interest to department of transportation (DOT) construction, design, and project engineers, and to those responsible for community relations. This report of the Transportation Research Board stresses the importance of informing project neighbors and establishing cooperative relations with the community as a first measure of successful mitigation. Examples show how project design can address construction nuisances by locating and sequencing construction operations to minimize their impact. Current practices used in source control, path control, and receptor control are described and documented in examples from the Boston Central Artery/Tunnel project and projects in Arizona and Salt Lake City, Utah. Appended materials provide sample specifications for mitigation of noise and dust control.
