## A BSTRA CT Wall linings are often used in dwellings to improve the thermal insulation of external walls and also to provide a dry finish. These linings are usually made from plasterboard, and some types are composites, having a thermal insulating material such as foamed plastic or mineral fibre

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
National and international standards for the measurement of sound insulation allow the user considerable flexibility in his technique. Concerned that this could lead to systematic differences in results, seven leading test organisations in the UK formed a working group to devise a detailed procedure
