Noise Standards & Calculation Methods
SoundPLAN supports more than 50 international calculation standards and methods, which is why it is used for projects that must satisfy different national regulators from a single model.
Frequently used standards
- ISO 9613-2 - outdoor sound propagation, widely used for industrial noise
- CNOSSOS-EU - the common assessment method for EU strategic noise mapping
- ISO 1996 - description, measurement and assessment of environmental noise
- RLS-90 and RLS-19 - German road traffic noise
- CRTN - UK road traffic noise
- NMPB - French road and rail noise
- TNM - US traffic noise model
- Nord2000 - Nordic propagation method
- ISO 9612 - occupational noise exposure (SoundPLANmanda)
Regional and national methods for roads, railways, aircraft and industry across Asia and the Middle East are also supported, so a model can be recalculated against a different method without rebuilding it.
