Effects of acoustical ceiling panel type: Vertical sound isolation

Construction Specifier

APRIL 30, 2021

Much is known about constructing partitions, whether they are made of masonry or gypsum wall board attached to metal or wood studs, to achieve the desired level of noise isolation. In buildings with ceilings, it is the combination of the floor and ceiling assembly that establishes the overall noise isolation performance between rooms.
