1. Scope
This part of ISO 3382 specifies methods for the measurement of room acoustic properties in open plan offices with furnishing. It specifies measurement procedures, the apparatus needed, the coverage required, the method for evaluating the data, and the presentation of the test report.
The measurement results can be used to evaluate room acoustic properties in open plan offices. This part of ISO 3382 is intended for medium and large size open plan offices.
