  2. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    The STC or sound transmission class is a single number method of rating how well wall partitions reduce sound transmission. [3] The STC provides a standardized way to compare products such as doors and windows made by competing manufacturers. A higher number indicates more effective sound insulation than a lower number. The STC is a ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Noise reduction coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction_coefficient

    A reverberation chamber is used to test the sound absorption coefficients and NRC of a material. The noise reduction coefficient (commonly abbreviated NRC) is a single number value ranging from 0.0 to 1.0 that describes the average sound absorption performance of a material. An NRC of 0.0 indicates the object does not attenuate mid-frequency ...

    S05 Sound Reducing Surfaces, furnishing quality surfaces of room that meets criteria of tier 1 or 2, receiving 1 or 2 points, for example, open workspaces, minimum noise reduction coefficient (NRC) OR Alpha-w of 0.75 or 0.90 and minimum furniture height and NRC OR Alpha-w with minimum height of 1.2 m above finished floor and minimum 0.70 ...

  6. Impact insulation class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_insulation_class

    Impact insulation class (or IIC) is an integer-number rating of how well a building floor attenuates impact sounds, such as footsteps. A larger number means more attenuation. The scale, like the decibel scale for sound, is logarithmic. The IIC is derived from ASTM method E989, which in turn uses a tapping machine specified in ASTM method E492. [1]

  7. Acoustic impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_impedance

    c is the speed of the sound waves traveling in the medium; δ is the particle displacement; x is the space variable along the direction of propagation of the sound waves. This equation is valid both for fluids and solids. In fluids, ρc 2 = K (K stands for the bulk modulus);

  8. Sound power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_power

    Sound power or acoustic power is the rate at which sound energy is emitted, reflected, transmitted or received, per unit time. [1] It is defined [2] as "through a surface, the product of the sound pressure, and the component of the particle velocity, at a point on the surface in the direction normal to the surface, integrated over that surface."

  9. Gypsum concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsum_concrete

    Gypsum concrete is a building material used as a floor underlayment used in wood-frame and concrete construction for fire ratings, sound reduction, radiant heating, and floor leveling. [1] It is a mixture of gypsum plaster, Portland cement, and sand. [1]
