  2. Acoustic panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_panel

    An acoustic board is a board made from sound absorbing materials, designed to provide sound insulation. [3] [4] Between two outer walls sound absorbing material is inserted and the wall is porous. Thus, when sound passes through an acoustic board, the intensity of sound is decreased. The loss of sound energy is balanced by producing heat energy.

  3. 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.

  4. Noise barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_barrier

    The sound tube in Melbourne, Australia, designed to reduce roadway noise without detracting from the area's aesthetics. A noise barrier (also called a soundwall, noise wall, sound berm, sound barrier, or acoustical barrier) is an exterior structure designed to protect inhabitants of sensitive land use areas from noise pollution.

  5. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    Insulation is a barrier material to resist/reduce substance (water, vapor, etc. ) /energy (sound, heat, electric, etc.) to transfer from one side to another. Heat/ Thermal Insulation is a barrier material to resist / block / reflect the heat energy (either one or more of the Conduction, Convection or Radiation) to transfer from one side to another.

  6. Spray foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

    Foam insulation serves as a barrier to airborne sounds, and reduces airborne sound transfer through a building's roof, floor and walls compared an uninsulated structure. [15] In the United States, homes treated with spray foam insulation often qualify for state and federal tax deductions. [16] Insulation of all types stops a good deal of energy ...

  7. Rigid panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_panel

    A multi-family residential building under construction with rigid panel exterior insulating sheathing. Rigid panel insulation, also referred to as continuous insulation, [1] can be made from foam plastics such as polyurethane (PUR), polyisocyanurate (PIR), and polystyrene, or from fibrous materials such as fiberglass, rock and slag wool.

  8. External wall insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_wall_insulation

    External wall insulation systems generally comprise firstly an insulation layer (an element which helps to achieve the requisite thermal performance); and secondly,a protected weatherproof finish (usually a render, although brick slips, [3] tiles, and decorative boards can also be used). Insulating render can also be an advantage in certain ...

  9. 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 ...
