Noise Legislation, Present and Future, as Related to Product Design 720404
The current and future regulation of product noise levels required by federal, state, and local authority has been surveyed. Probable effects on product design are presented and discussed, with consideration given to specific problems such as: cost/benefit; enforcement, noise-monitoring networks; lead time; technological feasibility; and design concept changes. All these problems are present and must be considered in any coordinated approach to product noise control.
