Principles of Sound Insulation

In order to tackle sound, we need to work on the 4 elements of sound proofing:

1) Decoupling - Reduce the vibration transmitted between walls.
2) Absorption - Have the air work through something between the two walls.
3) Add Mass - Make the vibrations in the wall lose more energy.
4) Damping - Make only parts of a material vibrate.

 

 


 

 

 

 

A successull sound proofing job

Some of past sound proofing jobs included sound proofing a theater room. We converted a basic 10x12 room into a sound proof studio room. The most cost efficent method we used was adding an additional layer of 5/8" drywall with 2 tubes of green glue per sheet on walls and ceilings. The home owner now can blast his surround sound entertainment system and not disturb others in the house. There is a certain method to applying this glue, and if not done right, can let sound escape.

Another successful sound proofing story-

We had a client that lived in a 3 story apartment in Miami Beach, and had a problem with his upstairs neighbor. The neighbor upstairs recently had tile floor installed, however, they did not use a cork underlayment under the tile, thus creating a bothersome problem for our client. Everytime the neightbor would walk, (especially with high heels) our client would hear EVERY STEP! He was fustrated and wondered if there was a solution to it.

We furred out his plaster ceilings with 7/8" resilent channels, which is a metal stud applied perpendicular to the trusses above. Then we added a rigid foam insulation panel (r-5) and taped all seams. Finally, we installed 1/2" layer of QUIET-ROCK to the ceilings through-out his apartment. After a week of renovations, our client can now claim his home again. He does not hear any more noise upstairs, and plans in the future to sound-proof his neighboring walls that divides his apartment.

Current wall (1 layer of 5/8" drywall each side with no insulation has an STC rating of 35)

An STC rating of 50+ is probably the minimum someone needs to get 'good' sound insulation and 60+ to get 'great' sound insulation

 

1. Add Isolation Clips - + 8 STC Points

2. Add 1 layer of drywall over existing drywall +2 STC Points
