Sound Insulation Unit (dB) Correction factor (dB) Sound Insulation (dB)

Sound insulation is the term used to describe the reduction in the level of sound that passes between two spaces separated by a dividing element. The level of this reduction is stated in decibels (dB). The higher the number, the greater the reduction in the noise that is transmitted from one room to the other.

The Building Regulation requirements regarding the sound insulation of walls and partitions only relate to the transmission of airborne noise. These include speech, musical instruments, loudspeakers and other sounds that originate in the air.

Sound insulation rating methods - A number of different rating methods are used to express the level of sound insulation provided by a partition solution. It is critical to check which sound insulation rating method a project specification requires before using this selector. The four most commonly used in relation to partitions, as defined in BS EN ISO 717: Part 1: 1997 (airborne), are described below:

Rw (laboratory) - The single figure rating method used for laboratory airborne sound insulation tests. The figure indicates the amount of sound energy being stopped by a separating building element when tested in isolation in the absence of any flanking paths.

DnTw (site) - The single figure rating method that gives the airborne sound insulation performance between two adjacent rooms within a building as measured in a post-construction, on-site test. The result achieved is affected not only by the separating element but also by the surrounding structure and junction details and the quality of workmanship.

Rw + Ctr / DnTw + Ctr - The Ctr adaptation term is a correction that can be added to either the Rw (laboratory) or DnTw (site) airborne rating. This term was originally developed to describe how a building element would perform if subject to excessive low frequency sound sources, such as traffic and railway noise.

Correction factor (only relates to DnTw / DnTw + Ctr)
The acoustic environment of the room and / or the building and the ability to reduce or eliminate air paths in the vicinity of the sound reducing element, e.g. doorsets, glazing, suspended ceiling cavities, ductwork, etc., will have a significant effect on the sound insulation performance between two spaces. For these reasons it is unlikely that figures quoted from laboratory test conditions will be achieved in practice. In order to account for this difference between site performance and laboratory tests, a correction factor is often applied. Typically, 7dB is used for DnTw requirements and 9dB for DnTw + Ctr. For example, a project needing to achieve 50 DnTw dB on site will require a partition which achieved 57 Rw dB in its laboratory test. If there is a high level of confidence in the site conditions being favourable to good acoustic performance, then a lower correction factor may be used.

NB. It is strongly advised that the services of an acoustic consultant are employed when considering project specific site performance criteria and selecting an appropriate laboratory-to-site correction factor.

Is Gyproc FireStrip required

Where included in the detail, Gyproc FireStrip is an essential component in maintaining the fire resistance of a partition.

What is the fire resistance performance of Gyproc plasterboard? Will I achieve 60 minutes fire resistance from 12.5mm Gyproc FireLine? What fire rating does a Board give? What fire rating does FireLine Board offer?

Fire resistance performance is based on complete systems such as a partition, wall, ceiling membrane or floor, therefore plasterboard cannot be considered on their own in terms of fire resistance.

Which partition types provide high acoustic performance with minimum impact to space?
