Build plasterboard sound proof wall ??


Hey all building a plaster board wall on my exsizting wall to stop sound transfering , i have been told to use batons and resilient bars and two layers of plasterboard, have put battons up then resielent bars and 15 mm acoustic plaster board..can i add another layer of resilient bars on to my platser board before i put my second layer of 15mm plasterbard or will this not work ???

any one used these bars before and done this ?

The most effective system of sound-dampening, with plaster board or drywall is to have 2 separate walls, with acoustical insulation in between. This method is actually the most cost effective: build and entire new wall with 2 x 3 studs, and stand it off 1/4" from the existing wall, stuff the bays with the insulation, install and finish the drywall as usual. The 1/4" gap between old and new, stop vibrations from being transferred between the two. The easiest way is to simply install acoustic drywall right over the old wall (acoustical drywall is essentially 2 sheets of 3/8" drywall with a sheet of aluminum sandwiched in between, it is the equivalent of 8 sheets of regular drywall. The draw back is this stuff is about $80 USD per sheet, but it goes up quickest, and saves the most space.

Hope this helps.

Sound Proofing Materials

Even if you can get the best of the materials available for soundproof, it will not be of much use unless they are properly put in place. Hence they have to be installed at the time of the construction of your house itself. Though you can still take advantage of the material once the construction is over, it is certain that it will not be as effective as that in a pre-construction phase.

Insulation is a way of blocking the unwanted sounds that come from outside. While you make your interiors soundproof, the ideal place to begin with is the floor. The floor insulation is a cheaper option. It also provides an effective soundproof between your floor and the adjacent floor or adjacent building. This insulation is provided by materials such as rock wool which are laid between the floor joists in the attempt to absorb sound. However, another good choice of insulation is cellulose that is spread into the place.

You can make your windows impervious to sound by using a kind of glass with a special quality. The glass panes that effectively block the outside noise are coupled ideally with thick sealing. You can use curtains or blinds to block the sound that might still make its way into your room. There are several other kinds of material that are effective sound blockers.

Acoustic foam otherwise known as open celled foams are best to catch sound. Soundproof material is also available in the quality of vinyl. It is called as Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) which has the double advantage of lightness as well as higher mass. This heavier mass gives it the required sound-blocking properties.

It is to be remembered that soundproofing is different from that of sound absorption. Absorption is that kind of sound improvement wherein the effect of sound is deadened in a conference room, recording studio or in a home theater. It restricts the entry of other noises and maintains only the positive sounds in the room. In another method of soundproof, people go to construct an extra stratum of wall in the room, with a little space in between. This space is the main absorber of sound thereby enhancing the sound quality pervading in the room.

Description

The Sonic Barrier 1" acoustic damping foam is a precisely engineered material that offers optimum absorption for its thickness. The material features our exclusive embossed surface finish that helps to trap acoustic energy and improve high frequency performance. This finish is applied to an acoustic-grade open-cell polyether foam, which absorbs and converts the acoustic energy into low-level heat. A very aggressive pressure sensitive adhesive provides easy and permanent installation onto any surface. The Sonic Barrier 1" foam is excellent for general loudspeaker cabinet use. The non-composite nature of this material means that it acts as a sound absorbent across a wide range of frequencies. For situations where the cabinet walls are already acoustically dead, composite barriers may not be necessary-- in this case, the pure foam material can offer a lower-cost alternative with minimal difference in performance. The foam will help absorb unwanted sound from within the cabinet without disrupting airflow between the driver and port. This can reduce unwanted sound reflections and prevent them from exiting through the cone or port. The foam can cause an increase in apparent volume, which can help to offset the space taken up by the driver or the port. Sold in 18" x 24" Sheets
