Abstract

Instrumentation will be described for the measurement of the relation between the total acoustic energy emitted by a floor when subjected to a mechanical impact and the striking velocity of the impact hammer. In addition, the mechanical force generated during the impact is measured. Some experimental results on a wooden floor and steel plate will be described. The relation between these measurements and the problem of standardizing routine impact sound measurements on floors will be discussed.
