<p>This International Standard defines the procedures for noise control of mainly open plants.</p>
<p>It is applicable to the following:</p>
<p>_ specification of procedures for noise control during engineering of a new plant and modification/extension of</p>
<p>existing plants (construction noise procedures are outside the scope of this International Standard but should</p>
<p>be considered);</p>
<p>_ definition of responsibilities of parties involved, viz. "end-user", "engineering contractor" and "equipment</p>
<p>supplier";</p>
<p>_ description of general procedures to arrive at noise requirements for individual equipment, on the basis of</p>
<p>overall noise requirements for the plant.</p>
<p>A schematic flowchart, reviewing the noise control process, is presented in annex A and a summary of action items</p>
<p>is presented in annex B.</p>
<p>NOTE Concerning specific engineering methods for the acoustic design and analysis of plants, use should be made of</p>
<p>other standards and textbooks.</p>
