  2. 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]

  3. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    Sound transmission class. Sound Transmission Class (or STC) is an integer rating of how well a building partition attenuates airborne sound. In the US, it is widely used to rate interior partitions, ceilings, floors, doors, windows and exterior wall configurations. Outside the US, the ISO Sound Reduction Index (SRI) is used.

  4. Sound reduction index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Reduction_Index

    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_concrete

    Foam concrete is a versatile building material with a simple production method that is relatively inexpensive compared to autoclave aerated concrete. [1] Foam concrete compounds utilising fly ash in the slurry mix is cheaper still, and has less environmental impact. Foam concrete is produced in a variety of densities from 200 kg/m 3 to 1,600 kg ...

    Building insulation material. A building site for a row of riverside apartment blocks in Cambridge. The buildings are being constructed using a systems build with a steel frame and various prefabricated components. The blue plastic on the central building is the vapour barrier for the thermal wall insulation before the exterior cladding has ...

  7. Insulating concrete form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulating_concrete_form

    Insulating concrete form or insulated concrete form (ICF) is a system of formwork for reinforced concrete usually made with a rigid thermal insulation that stays in place as a permanent interior and exterior substrate for walls, floors, and roofs. The forms are interlocking modular units that are dry-stacked (without mortar) and filled with ...
