The values of the measured airborne sound reduction index of the tested window are drawn-
up in the diagram of the annexed data sheet as a function of the frequency and are given in a
table.
According to EN ISO 717-1:1996-12 the weighted sound reduction index Rw and the spec-
trum adaption terms C and Ctr for the frequency range from 100 Hz to 3150 Hz can be calcu-
lated as follows:
Rw (C;Ctr) = 36 (-2;-6) dB
According to EN ISO 717-1:1996-12 following spectrum adaption terms can be calculated:
C50-3150 = -2 dB C100-5000 = -2 dB C50-5000 = -2 dB
Ctr,50-3150 = -6 dB Ctr,100-5000 = -6 dB Ctr,50-5000 = -6 dB
Rw,R = 34 dB
