This standard specifies the methods of measuring the vibration-damping properties of materials, including loss factor η, elastic Young's modulus E and elastic shear modulus G, by cantilever beam resonance method.
Accurate over a frequency range of 50Hz to 5kHz and over the useful temperature range of the material, this standard is applicable to materials that have application in structural vibration, building acoustics and noise control, etc.
