ISO 15664:2001, Acoustics -- Noise control design procedures for open plant

This International Standard defines the procedures for noise control of mainly open plants.It is applicable to the following:specification of procedures for noise control during engineering of a new plant and modification/extension of existing plants (construction noise procedures are outside the scope of this International Standard but should be considered); definition of responsibilities of parties involved, viz. “end-user”, “engineering contractor” and “equipment supplier”; description of general procedures to arrive at noise requirements for individual equipment, on the basis of overall noise requirements for the plant. A schematic flowchart, reviewing the noise control process, is presented in annex A and a summary of action items is presented in annex B.
