Lightweight inner leaves contribute more than heavier inner leaves to thermal insulation, but there are reasons for expecting that they may adversely affect the sound insulation of party floors. The most sensitive indicator of the influence of inner leaves is provided by differences, if any, between

In this paper, results from measurements and theoretical calculations of the sound reduction index of some double walls are presented. The walls are lightweight (many o f them made from gypsum boards), uncoupled and fitted with sound-absorbing material in the gap. The results from measurements and c
A BS TRA C T Timber platform foors are often found to perform better in the laboratoo, than in the field and the reasons for this are not well understood. The main parameters that affect the sound insulation of this type of floor have been investigated and the results are reported in this paper. The
Some types of lining used on internal wall surfaces of buildings have been found to influence sound insulation. This effect is due to the excitation of mechanical resonances in the lining. There is insu~cient evidence available from which to make specific proposals, but it is recommended that where
