ANSI/ASA S12.7-1986 (R2006)

Vendor Note: This standard describes methods for measurement of impulse noise and presentation of data. Its scope applies to all kinds ofimpulse noise, whether discrete event sources, such as quarry and mining explosions or sonic booms, or from multiple eventsources such as pile drivers, riveting, or machine-gun firing, but not to sounds from other sources which have specificmeasurement standards based on the general methods for measurement of quasisteady noise. Data which may be reportedinclude characteristics of the time variation of the sound pressure, with or without specific frequency weighting, and soundexposure level.
