Overview

Noise Reducing Devices alongside roads should not only fulfil their acoustic function and structural design requirements in accordance with appropriate documents, but also maintain their performance during the required working life. The acoustic elements have to resist the actions of agents within the roadside environment that could significantly degrade their performance. This European Standard specifies requirements for assessing the working life and provides the relevant exposure conditions. Standards of construction and any material tests conducted should provide evidence of resistance to specified conditions selected from the following: I. Chemical Agents - Location dependent II. De-icing salt - Location/climate dependent III. Dirty water/dust - Location/climate dependent IV. Dew - Climate dependent V. Freeze/thaw - Climate dependent VI. Cold - Climate dependent VII. Heat - Climate dependent VIII. UV Radiation - Climate dependent IX. Traffic Vibration - Location dependent X. Biological Process - Climate dependent XI. Ozone - Location dependent XII. Water - Climate dependent XIII. Water spray (Wet/dry) - Location dependent The committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-10-26 AA "Lärmschutzvorrichtungen (SpA zu CEN/TC 226/WG 6" ("Noise reducing devices (national mirror committee for CEN/TC 226/WG 6)") at DIN.
