Acoustical Performance Test Report
MODERNUS 234 5th Avenue, Suite #315 New York, New York 10001
Report No F6447.01-113-11 Test Date 06/17/16 Report Date 07/13/16 Project Scope Architectural Testing, Inc., a subsidiary of Intertek ("Intertek-ATI"), was contracted to conduct a sound transmission loss test. The complete test data is included as Appendix B of this report. The client provided the test specimen. Test Methods Testing for this project was conducted in accordance with the following standards. The equipment listed in the attachments meets the requirements of the following standards. ASTM E90-09, Standard Test Method for Laboratory Measurement of Airborne Sound Transmission Loss of Building Partitions and Elements ASTM E413-10, Classification for Rating Sound Insulation ASTM E1332-10a, Standard Classification for Rating Outdoor-Indoor Sound Attenuation ASTM E2235-04 (2012), Standard Test Method for Determination of Decay Rates for Use in Sound Insulation Test Methods
Test Procedure All measurements were conducted in the HT test chambers at Intertek-ATI located in York, Pennsylvania. The sensitivity of the microphones was checked before measurements were conducted. The transmission loss values were obtained for a single direction of measurement. Two background noise sound pressure level and five sound absorption measurements were conducted at each of five microphone positions. Two sound pressure levels were made simultaneously in the receive and source rooms at each of five microphone positions.
The air temperature and relative humidity conditions were monitored and recorded during all measurements.

Specimen Installation A sound transmission loss test was initially performed on a filler wall. The specimen plug was removed from the filler wall assembly. The specimen was placed on an isolation pad in the test opening. Duct seal was used to seal the perimeter of the specimen to the test opening on both sides. The interior side of the specimen, when installed, was approximately 1/4" from being flush with the receive room side of the filler wall. A stethoscope was used to check for any abnormal air leaks around the test specimen prior to testing. Test Calculations Transmission loss (TL) at each 1/3 octave frequency is the average source room sound pressure level minus the average receive room sound pressure level, plus, 10 times the log of the specimen area divided by the sound absorption of the receive room with the sample in place. STC Rating To obtain the Sound Transmission Class (STC), read the TL of the contour curve at 500 Hz. The sum of the deficiencies below the contour curve must not exceed 32. The maximum deficiency at any one frequency must not exceed 8. OITC Rating The Outdoor-Indoor Transmission Class (OITC) is calculated by subtracting the logarithmic summation of the TL values from the logarithmic summation of the A-weighted transportation noise spectrum stated in ASTM E1332.

Comments The client did not supply a report drawing of the test specimen. The specimen was held for further testing per the client's request. Intertek-ATI will service this report for the entire test record retention period. Test records, such as detailed drawings, datasheets, representative samples of test specimens, or other pertinent project documentation, will be retained by Intertek-ATI for the entire test record retention period. The test record retention period ends four years after the test date. This report does not constitute certification of this product nor an opinion or endorsement by this laboratory. It is the exclusive property of the client so named herein and relates only to the specimen tested. This report is intended to help in the client’s quality assurance program, but it does not represent a continuous or exhaustive evaluation of the specimen tested or of other products or materials that were not evaluated. The statements and data provided herein do not constitute approval, disapproval, certification, or acceptance of performance or materials.
