Main Focus
The main focus of the project was to provide drylining systems
suitable for this magnificent development, which can house 1500
staff within 350,000 square feet of office accommodation.
Challenge
The challenge was, in keeping with the specification team's
performance requirements, to provide absolute sound integrity to
most areas. In particular, a separating wall was required between
the noisy plant room and the main auditorium.
Solution
The solution was to use a GypWall AUDIO twin frame high performance
separating wall, lined with 1 layer of 19mm Gyproc Plank and 1
layer of 15mm Gyproc SoundBloc. This solution also incoporated
100mm Isover General Purpose Roll insulation.
This solution, along with other systems specified to meet a
complicated mix of aesthetic and practical performance
requirements, was extensively tested and approved by the
architectural team.
