Feelings of loudness are different from person to person. So don't talk of "measuring" the "loudness".
For psycho acoustic values we have units to express loudness:
Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L).
You can really measure the sound pressure with a sound pressure level meter. That is measured in dB SPL. Loudness is a subjective measure but sound pressure is an objective measure. But that is different. Don't mix it up. Scroll down to related links and look for more on decreasing of sound pressure with distance.
What else can I help you with?
How loud is 45 - 50 decibels?

How do you tell the difference between loud and quiet sounds?
Loud sounds are high in volume and can often be heard from far away, while quiet sounds are low in volume and may only be heard at close range. You can use a decibel meter to measure the sound levels and determine if they are loud or quiet.
How is a quiet sound wave different from a loud sound wave?
A quiet sound wave has lower amplitude and intensity compared to a loud sound wave. This means the vibrations produced by the quiet sound wave are less forceful and have less energy, resulting in a softer sound.
