1. Building structure: Primary load-bearing structure supporting the resilient ceiling system.
2. Suspension rod: Threaded rod used to suspend the resilient ceiling from the building structure.
3. Acoustic hanger: Akustik Super T47 + Sylomer® resilient hanger that elastically decouples the suspended ceiling from the building structure, providing exceptional low-frequency vibration isolation.
4. Mineral wool: Sound-absorbing insulation that improves cavity absorption and overall acoustic performance.
5. Plasterboard ceiling: Lightweight suspended ceiling completing the resilient acoustic ceiling system.
Andreas Rabold from IFT Rosenheim carried out an study called “Trittschalldämmung richtig bewerten” to evaluate the correlation between the value of Ln,w according to DIN EN ISO 717-2 and the subjective perception of impact noise on wooden ceilings.
This article compares the results of the tests of a suspended ceiling using a rigid solution versus an elastic solution in two configurations with the same construction conditions for light wooden structures.
