However, there is no specific regulation for this activity, which shows its own emission features that make it remarkably different from other activities.This paper states a measuring method that suits the mentioned activity. This method has been used in the study of the noise emitted during the construction of a housing block of 26 flats.The features of sound emission for each stage have been analysed once the results have been obtained. Afterwards, a comparison among them has been done in order to characterise the noise emission of the construction process. The knowledge of these characteristics will allow the proposal of measures for controlling the noise and the analysis of the acoustic impact which such activity produces in the area nearby.
