For an explanation of decibels and what these numbers mean look in the glossary.
However as a rough guide: Where you have a poorly constructed single 12.5mm
plasterboard ceiling beneath a loose floor boarded floor your acoustic privacy
might only between 35db and you can hear conversational tones and TV easily,
the application of any of these solutions will take the ceiling to in excess
of 55db acoustic privacy which is a good level of privacy. Refer to our glossary
and case studies for more information.
Please be aware that breeze block walls can seriously compromise any of these
figures due to possibility of flanking transmission.
