Division 6.2 Calculation of Lurban ASEP

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

From any Lwot ASEP as measured in accordance with this Annex, Lurban ASEP shall be calculated as follows:

  1. (a)

    calculate awot test ASEP as specified in point 4.1.2.1.2.1 or point 4.1.2.1.2.2 of Annex II, as applicable;

  2. (b)

    determine the vehicle speed (VBB ASEP) at BB' during the Lwot ASEP test;

  3. (c)

    calculate kP ASEP as follows:

    kP ASEP = 1 – (aurban/awot test ASEP)

    Test results where awot test ASEP are less than aurban shall be disregarded.

  4. (d)

    calculate Lurban measured ASEP as follows:

    Lurban measured ASEP =

    Lwot ASEP – kP ASEP * (Lwot ASEP – Lcrs)

    For further calculation, use the Lurban from Annex II without rounding, including the digit after the decimal (xx.x).

  5. (e)

    calculate Lurban normalized as follows:

    Lurban normalized = Lurban measured ASEP – Lurban

  6. (f)

    calculate Lurban ASEP as follows:

    Lurban ASEP =

    Lurban normalized – (0,15 * (VBB ASEP – 50))

  7. (g)

    compliance with sound level limits:

    Lurban ASEP shall be less than or equal to 3,0 dB.
