Abstract

The U.S. is a participating member in the development of ISO standards through the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Specific ANSI participation relative to standards on architectural acoustics is within ISO TC43 SC2, which deals with building acoustics, as opposed to noise for instance. The actual standards development and voting responsibilities rest with the ANSI Technical Advisory Group (TAG) to ISO TC43 SC2, which is delegated to ASTM (American Standards for Testing and Materials) committee E 33.06 International Standards. This paper will present the process whereby the entire American continent is involved in the development of ISO standards, since ASTM is an international standard organization, whereas the U.S. voting is of course solely an ANSI responsibility. Both current and in‐development ISO standards will be discussed.
