1.2 The name given to the rating is assigned by the test method that invokes this classification.
1.3 This classification is applicable only to one third octave band impact noise data obtained using the standard tapping machine described in Test Methods E492 and E1007.
1.4 Test methods that invoke this classification include:
1.4.1 Test Method E492 - the single-number rating is called impact insulation class (IIC).
1.4.2 Test Method E1007 - the single-number ratings are called apparent impact insulation class (AIIC), impact sound rating (ISR), and normalized impact sound rating (NISR).
1.4.3 Test Method E2179 - the single-number rating is called the change in impact insulation class (ΔIIC).
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
