STUDY OF ALTERNAIVE FLOOR AND CEILING SOUND INSULATION MEASURES AIMED AT REDUCING NOISE FROM AIR BORNE SOUEN AND LIGHT-WEIGHT IMPACT SOUND ON CONVENTIONAL WOODEN FLORRS

摘要

This study was aimed at improving the sound insulation performance of floors in conventional wooden construction houses using simple and low cost measures. The main conclusions were as follows: 1. Laying a carpet on the floor led to a marked decrease in the penetration of air borne sound from the room above, But had little insulating effect against noised from impacts on the floor above.
