Article 9. Designing
and implementing a monitoring program
1. Noise monitoring location
a) The QCVN
26:2010/BTNMT - National Technical Regulation on Noise stipulates maximum levels
of noise in areas where people live and work; the noise referred to in this
Regulation is caused by human activities regardless noise sources or noise
locations.
b) Regions requiring the measurement of noise
include:
- Places needing special quiet: hospitals,
libraries, sanitariums, kindergartens, and schools;
- Residential areas, hotels, dwelling houses,
and administrative agencies;
- Commercial and service areas;
- Production factories located in residential
areas.
c) Noise monitoring locations are selected in
conformity with the national technical regulation TCVN 5964:1995, in which the
following points should be carefully considered:

- Avoid obstacles which may cause the
reflection of sound;
- Avoid man-made sources of noise such as
music, clash made by hitting of metal objects, sounds of children frolicking,
etc.);
- Select monitoring locations so as to ensure
the most stable sound transmission with the unchanged wind components from the
source to the monitoring location.
d) With regard to
industrial manufacturing factories, the noise monitoring is conducted at the
workplace as regulated in the National Technical Regulation TCVN 3985:1999.
The noise monitoring parameters include:
a) LAeq: A-weighted equivalent
sound level;
b) LAmax: maximum A-weighted sound
level;
c) LAN,T : percentile
level ;
d) Analyze noise at the one octave band (in
industrial zones) ;

a) Monitoring frequency
The noise monitoring frequency depends on
requirements of the agency in charge of the noise monitoring program, funding
and purposes of the monitoring program provided that it shall not less than 04
times per year.
b) Monitoring time
- Noise at prescribed places and traffic
noise must be continuously measured within 12, 18 or 24 hours depending on
monitoring requirements.
- Noise at production factories must be
measured within the working time;
- Because sound levels are influenced by
weather conditions, the selection of noise monitoring time must pay attention
to the following points:
+ Monitoring time must be selected so as to
ensure that within the selected monitoring time, the average sound level is
determined in a band of weather conditions appearing at monitoring locations;
+
Monitoring time is selected so as to ensure that measures are conducted within
typical weather conditions.

b) The equipment used in the noise monitoring
includes integrating sound level meters with frequency analyzer. If the
integrating sound level meter is not available, the sound exposure level meter
shall be applied, in which monitoring times must be recorded and the
statistical distribution method shall be employed to determine the LAeq,T value:
Where
- T = åti:
total duration of sampling intervals;
- ti : time of exposure at the
noise level LAi; (corresponding to the monitoring time i);
- LAi: A-weighted sound level during
the ith time interval (ti);
- n: total times of noise level measurement.
c)
For the purpose of assurance of monitoring quality, the sound level meters must
be calibrated in conformity with applicable standards at the sound levels of 94
dBA and 104 dBA before each noise monitoring and periodically tested by
competent calibration agencies.

a) Measurements
When conducting outdoor measurements, the
reflection of sound must be minimized. Measurements must be taken at least 3.5m
far away from the sound reflecting structures, excluding the ground. If other
regulations are not applied, measurements are taken 1.2 - 1.5 m above the ground.
b) Outdoor measurements near multistoried
buildings
These measurements shall be taken at the
locations where the noise exposing on the multistoried building should be
considered. Not otherwise provided for, measurements should be taken 1-2 m far
away from the building and 1.2 – 1.5 m above the ground.
c) Traffic noise level measurements
- Measurements are taken 1.2 - 1.5 m above
the ground;
- The reflection of sound must be minimized;
- Avoid sources of unwanted noise which may
influence on measurements.
d) Indoor measurements

- Noise at the workplace caused by industrial
machines must be measured at the 1:1 octave band frequency (as regulated in the
National Technical Regulation TCVN 3985:1999).
dd) Notices
- Three measurements are taken within 1 hour,
each of which is continuously taken within a 10-minute interval. Then, the mean
value of such three measurements shall be taken. The achieved result shall be
considered as the mean value of such measuring hour;
- For traffic noise caused by vehicle flow,
besides measuring noise, it is necessary to determine the traffic intensity
(vehicle/hour) by means of counting manually or automatic equipment. Type of
vehicle in the vehicle flow must be classified, including:
+ Very large vehicles (containers and others
with more than 10 wheels);
+ Trucks and coaches;
+ Cars (under 12 seats);
+ Motorbikes, mopeds.
- Similar steps shall be applied to measure
the noise at 1:1 octave band provided that after setting time, measuring mode
must be set up according to the 1:1 octave band frequency.
