Noise Measurement

Noise measurement involves using specialized instruments called sound level meters to quantify the loudness of sound in an environment, typically expressed in decibels (dB). It helps assess whether noise levels are safe or exceed legal or recommended limits. The process captures sound across a range of frequencies and time, providing a comprehensive understanding of environmental or occupational noise exposure. This information is crucial for managing noise pollution, protecting public health, and ensuring compliance with regulations. Essentially, it’s a way to objectively evaluate how loud a sound environment is, aiding in decision-making for noise control.
