Wall Soundproofing Solution 3
An independent stud wall.- The most effective form of soundproofing wallsWhen soundproofing a wall it is necessary to improve three basic components. However where noise is extreme from next door we have to add further elements 4) Width of soundproofing-the wider your soundproofing barrier the better it performs. Hence 100mm wall are better than 50mm Where the level of noise from the neighbouring wall is extreme, the erection of an independent stud incorporating acoustic materials will provide the greatest level of wall soundproofing. The Stud can be constructed from either wood or metal. We provide a series calculators designed to help you work out what you need for different sized walls. Obviously if space is at a premium then construct a 50mm stud wall with a minimal gap ( 10mm) between it and the offending wall. The stud work should not touch the offending wall at any point, and should be affixed to adjacent walls floor and ceiling. The stud work should be in-filled with the appropriate thickness of acoustic mineral wool, i.e. 75mm in this case. The construction on the stud wall follows the same pattern as the the other wall solutions ideally incorporating resilient bars (like Solution 2 ) and certainly a double plasterboard layer. With this construction the filling of floor and ceiling voids with acoustic mineral wool (AMW60 100mm) immediately adjacent to the offending wall needs to be considered as this will typically be the weakest acoustic link post construction. In order to keep the wool in place it might be necessary to staple chicken wire or similar meshing to the rear of the stud work. Be aware of the possibility of flanking sound issues in breeze block party walls. If you wish to buy this solution online we can calculate the materials you need.
