2. Sound reduction index - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Reduction_Index

   The Sound Reduction Index is expressed in decibels (dB). It is the weighted sound reduction index for a partition or single component only. This is a laboratory-only measurement, which uses knowledge of the relative sizes of the rooms in the test suite, and the reverberation time in the receiving room, and the known level of noise which can pass between the rooms in the suite by other routes ...

3. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

   Adding absorptive materials to the interior surfaces of rooms, for example fabric-faced fiberglass panels and thick curtains, will result in a decrease of reverberated sound energy within the room. However, absorptive interior surface treatments of this kind do not significantly improve the sound transmission class. [ 19 ]

4. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

   Typical U.S. height for panels is 8 or 9 feet (2.4 or 2.7 m). Panels come in widths ranging from 4 to 12 inches (100–300 mm) thick and a rough cost is $4–$6/ft 2 in the U.S. [5] In 4Q 2010, new methods of forming radius, sine curve, arches and tubular SIPs were commercialized. Due to the custom nature and technical difficulty of forming and ...

5. Noise reduction coefficient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction_coefficient

   This rating is common of thicker, porous sound absorptive materials such as 2-inch-thick (51 mm) fabric-wrapped fiberglass panel. Materials can achieve NRC values greater than 1.00. This is a shortcoming of the test procedure and a limitation of how acousticians define a square unit of absorption, and not a characteristic of the material itself.

6. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

   Installed faced fiberglass batt insulation with its R-value visible (R-21) [1]. The R-value (in K⋅m 2 /W) is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, a window or a complete wall or ceiling, resists the conductive [2] flow of heat, in the context of construction. [3]

7. Building insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation

   If the renovation is of a smaller nature, the renovation directive applies. Examples of renovation are post-insulation of a cavity wall and post-insulation of a sloping roof against the roof boarding or under the tiles. Note that every renovation must meet the minimum Rc value of 1.3 W/(m 2 ⋅K). If the current insulation has a higher ...
