Noise Reduction Coefficient definition

Noise Reduction Coefficient or “NRC” means noise reduction coefficient as set out in ASTM C423. NRC is a single number rating of the sound absorbing properties of a material – derived by arithmetically averaging the Sabine absorption coefficients at 250 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz and 4000 Hz. An NRC of 0.00 indicates zero absorption while; an NRC of 1.00 indicates 100% absorption; (100) “Operation and Maintenance Information” or “O&M Information” has the meaning indicated in Section B.1.1 of Appendix 18F – O&M Information;
