Acoustic Reduction
Minus 37 decibels or Rw 36
A typical wall system of say:
External layer 10mm James Hardie Tex (blueboard) 10kg/m2
90mm timber studs
90mm Icynene foam insulation in cavity
Internal layer 16mm fire-rated Gyprock plasterboard
(12.5kg/m2)
To achieve higher desired Rw value, changes to the wall would be required such as:
- Provide additional layers of plasterboard to internal side
- Provide a resilient mount system to semi-discontinue the timber studs thus minimising sound transmission through the studs
- Using steel studs instead of timber which will minimise sound transmission through the studs.
