ANSI S1.22 (Measurement of Sound Pressure Levels)

ANSI S1.22 is a standard that outlines how to measure sound pressure levels accurately. It provides guidelines for using sound level meters, including how to set them up, where to measure, and how to interpret the results. The goal is to ensure consistency and reliability in sound measurements, which is important in various fields, such as environmental monitoring, construction, and noise regulation. By following this standard, professionals can make informed decisions about noise control, compliance with regulations, and the impact of sound on people and the environment.
