    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    Interior walls with 1 sheet of 1 ⁄ 2-inch (13 mm) gypsum wallboard on either side of 2x4 (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in × 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 in or 38 mm × 89 mm) wood studs spaced 16 inches (410 mm) on-center with no fiberglass insulation filling each stud cavity have an STC of about 33. [14]

  3. Acoustiblok - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustiblok

    Double steel stud partition walls, faced with single layers of drywall and containing fiber-glass insulation and Acoustiblok, can achieve an STC of up to 66, according to the manufacturer. STC is calculated using a range of frequencies similar to the human voice; attenuation in higher and lower ranges should be estimated from the Sound ...

  4. Soundproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundproofing

    A pair of headphones being tested inside an anechoic chamber for soundproofing. Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation.There are several methods employed including increasing the distance between the source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using ...

  5. Acoustic foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_foam

    Acoustic foam tiles are suited to placing on sonically reflective surfaces to act as sound absorbers, thus enhancing or changing the sound properties of a room. [ 11 ] This type of sound absorption is different from soundproofing, which is typically used to keep sound from escaping or entering a room rather than changing the properties of sound ...

  6. Sound reduction index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Reduction_Index

    The sound reduction index is used to measure the level of sound insulation provided by a structure such as a wall, window, door, or ventilator. It is defined in the series of international standards ISO 16283 (parts 1-3) and the older ISO 140 (parts 1-14), or the regional or national variants on these standards.

  7. Drywall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drywall

    Sound transmission class (STC) ratings can be increased from 33 for an ordinary stud-wall to as high as 59 with double 1 ⁄ 2-inch (13 mm) drywall on both sides of a wood stud wall with resilient channels on one side and glass wool batt insulation between the studs. [19] Sound transmission may be slightly reduced using regular 5 ⁄ 8-inch (16 ...
