About Architectural Noise Separation
Is soundproofing really possible? Can you actually soundproof a wall or ceiling? Best to ask an acoustical consultant. The answer might surprise you.
Airborne and impact noises are major sources of occupant complaint in modern buildings. Conventional construction of floors, walls, and ceilings is often inadequate for controlling unwanted sound. Design for architectural noise separation is best handled by a professional designer/engineer trained in acoustics.
By introducing Kinetics® composite construction systems one can achieve substantially higher levels of sound control. Kinetics® Floating Floors, Sound Control Floor Underlayments, Isolated Ceilings, Isolated Partitions, and Composite Barrier Materials all provide methods for achieving substantial increases in noise reduction. Ask your professional designer to use Kinetics® products for the construction of your noise control floors, walls, and ceilings.
