As requested by the client, transmission loss values were calculated at additional test frequencies. Although the measurements were made in accordance with the procedures described in ASTM E90-90, they do not qualify as part of the standard. Since the results are representative of the test environment only, they are unofficial and intended for research and development guidelines rather than for commercial purposes. The data at the additional frequencies were as follows:
Sound Transmission Loss (dB)
Reference Test Number 1/3 Octave Center Frequency (Hz)

RAL-TL96-101 21 23 26 67 69 68
