Abstract

ISO 10846-1:2008 explains the principles underlying ISO 10846-2, ISO 10846-3, ISO 10846-4 and ISO 10846-5 for determining the transfer properties of resilient elements from laboratory measurements, and provides assistance in the selection of the appropriate part of this series. It is applicable to resilient elements that are used to reduce

the transmission of audiofrequency vibrations (structure-borne sound, 20 Hz to 20 kHz) to a structure which may, for example, radiate fluid-borne sound (airborne, waterborne, or other), and

the transmission of low-frequency vibrations (typically 1 Hz to 80 Hz), which may, for example, act upon human subjects or cause damage to structures of any size when the vibration is too severe.
