1 General Provisions
1.0.1 This code is formulated with view to preventing the noise hazard of industrial enterprises, guaranteeing the employees' health, ensuring the safety production and normal work, and protecting environment.
1.0.2 This code is applicable to the noise control design of the construction, renovation, extension and technical transformation engineering of industrial enterprises.
1.0.3 The noise control design of the construction, renovation and extension engineering of industrial enterprises shall be carried out in parallel with the engineering design.
1.0.4 The design of noise control of industrial enterprise shall cover comprehensive analysis on the production process, operating maintenance, noise reduction effect, and technical and economic efficiency.
1.0.5 As for the noise generated during production process and by equipment, control shall be carried out at the sound source at first by replacing the high noise process and equipment with the low noise process and equipment; if it still fails to meet the requirement, the noise control measures such as sound insulation, noise elimination, sound absorption, vibration isolation and integrated control shall be taken.
1.0.6 As for such workshops and workplaces that still fail to meet the design limit of noise control after being taken with corresponding noise control measures, proper personal protective measures shall be taken.
1.0.7 In addition to the requirements stipulated in this code, the design of noise control of industrial enterprises also shall comply with those in the current relevant standards of the nation.
