Abstract
Based on the results presented in the preceding paper, an expression connecting the impact-noise level (Ln) and sound transmission loss (TL) of a floor is derived that takes into account both the resonant and the forced response of the floor; it thus extends the utility of the formulas derived previously by Heckl and Rathe into the frequency range below the critical frequency. It is shown how this connection between impact-noise level and sound TL can be used for the experimental evaluation of the potential TL of a floating floor in the presence of certain types of flanking.
