PDF_The Noise Manual, 6th edition – Topic 06: Brief High-Level Sounds

Select only what you need from The Noise Manual, 6th edition with AIHA's new topic bundles! This bundle includes Chapter 6 from the full text, plus the cover, front matter, table of contents, symbols and abbreviations, and appendices.

In Chapter 6: Brief High-Level Sounds, consider how brief high-level sounds like those from firearms, fireworks, and construction tools can damage the human ear and rapidly increase the risk of hearing impairment. Check out the excerpt below:

“Brief high-level sounds could be a more potent hazard for the auditory system than long-duration signals of equivalent energy, particularly for sounds having instantaneous peaks greater than about 140 dB SPL. The ears of the unprotected person exposed to these sounds are at risk of immediate harm. This risk grows with increased sound energy and numbers of exposures."
