Description

This standard provides a method to predict sleep disturbance in terms of percent awakenings associated with the noise level of events in terms of sound exposure level (SEL). This standard was developed using field studies of behavioral awakening primarily in homes near areas of routine aircraft takeoff and landing operations. The database used in derivation of the dose-response relationship consists of more than 5,000 subject-nights of observations in a variety of communities in the United States.
