Abstract:

A noise measurement method for energy-average sound level (L sub eq) that provides more flexibility and information than most methods in use today is discussed. The one-minute L sub eq measurement method consists of a series of L sub eq measurements, each one minute in duration. This method requires an integrating sound level meter or portable noise monitor. Limitations of other commonly used methods and advantages of the one-minute method are discussed. An example of the L sub eq method's use is presented.
