There are acoustical performance standards for airborne noise, footfall noise, and background noise from mechanical systems. Though some of the most common complaints are associated with fitness activities within the building, walking noise outside the scope of the current metrics, and plumbing noise. Some of these conditions have been incorporated into the ASHRAE 189.1/IgCC Acoustic Control section and need to be considered with your design team that seeks to satisfy this standard.
