  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.

  3. 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]

    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 ...

  6. Spray foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

    Spray foam insulation or spray polyurethane foam (SPF) is an alternative to traditional building insulation such as fiberglass. A two-component mixture composed of isocyanate and polyol resin comes together at the tip of a gun, and forms an expanding foam that is sprayed onto roof tiles, concrete slabs, into wall cavities, or through holes ...

  7. Cellulose insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose_insulation

    Insulation reduces sound travelling through walls and between floor levels. Cellulose provides mass and damping. This reduces noise in two ways: it reduces the lateral vibration of sheetrock and attenuates the passage of sound along cavities. Cellulose is approximately three times denser than fiberglass, providing a slight improvement in sound ...
