Acoustical Leaks in a Custom Home
Client: Private Confidential
- Conducted a sound transmission analysis on the home's floor and ceiling assembly of intrusive conversational and activity noise from the kitchen
- Developed a computer-based graphic model to identify acoustical leaks in the floor and ceiling construction and from flanking paths and the effects of opened and closed doors
- Proposed several options to increase the sound transmission rating of the construction, rating how much of an improvement each option would achieve so that the owners could make informed choices
