Resilient Bars are essential to help bring suspended timber floors into compliance with the building regulations for noise control through converted separating floors for flats. Used in connection with other sound insulating materials we supply, the bars will create an effective acoustic break between the bottom of the existing joists and the ceiling. If not fitted directly beneath the floor joists, Sound Reducing Resilient Bars can be supported by 50mm square battens screwed to the underside of any existing ceiling. (See installation instructions above). Plasterboard is then screwed to the corrugated section of the bar using our self drilling screws and for best results; two layers totalling 30mm thickness should be installed. Alternatively, two layers of 12.5mm plasterboard Sound Block can be used. A greater sound insulation improvement can be gained if a min of our Acoustic Mineral Wool (AMW50) is installed between the battens before fixing the plasterboard. When installed beneath an existing ceiling with AMW50 and 30mm of plasterboard applied, improvements in both airborne noise and impact sound would normally be well in excess of 300% this can be further enhanced if our Acoustic Membrane is sandwiched between the plasterboard layers.

What happens to the sound in a soundproof room?

It stays in the room and does not leak out into the surrounding areas. If you wanted to diffuse that sound you would use acoustical panels or acoustical baffles in order to absorb the sound from bouncing around the room. A soundproof room means it contains the sound in the room. Acoustical treatment is meant to diffuse and absorb the sound which is in the room.

How can you soundproof your room for your band practice?

To soundproof a room you'll want to take each part - the floors, ceilings, and walls - separately. Start by checking the areas around the windows, doors, and electrical outlets. Are they properly sealed? If not, you'll need to get some acoustical caulk like quiet seal and fill in the cracks. Are your doors hollow or solid? Try replacing hollow doors with stronger, solid doors to help block sound and seal all the gaps with Weatherstrips. Finally, you'll use a series of techniques to add QuietGlue damping compound and extra drywall or quietrock to the walls and ceilings. This is easier to do if you are working on a building still under construction, but you can soundproof an existing room. All you have to do is apply the QuietGlue to your existing surface (as it is), screw new drywall over top, and fill in the seams with acoustical caulk, Spackle, and repaint. Before you know it you'll have a soundproof room!
