Improving Building Acoustics [PDF]
Abstract One of the most significant aspects which need to be analysed in the case of a building consists in finding that the sound level perceived by listeners is a proper one (Daniela-Roxana Tămaş-Gavrea et all., 2012). Their inconsistent spreading can develop problems in audition which can be solved only by putting in work a number of

Managing Measurement Uncertainty in Building Acoustics [PDF]
In general, uncertainties should preferably be determined following the principles laid down in ISO/IEC Guide 98-3, the Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement (GUM:1995).
