Approved document E: Resistance to the passage of sound, defines the ‘absorption coefficient’ as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A quantity characterising the effectiveness of a sound absorbing surface. The proportion of sound energy absorbed is given as a number between zero (for a fully reflective surface) and one (for a fully absorptive surface). Note that sound absorption coefficients determined from laboratory measurements may have values slightly larger than one. See BS EN 20354:1993 (Acoustics. Measurement of sound absorption in a reverberation room).&lt;br /&gt;
