Principles of Acoustics

This webinar will provide basic knowledge on the principles of acoustics.  We will review acoustic solutions for common wall and floor assemblies.  We will explore different types of acoustic insulation and the impact it has on the assembly.   We will examine fire resistance designs and ratings in common wall and floor assemblies.  We will provide design tools and references available to support acoustic and fire separations.

At the conclusion of this session participants will be able to:

• Discuss the basic principles of acoustics.
• Identify the different performance metrics between common wall and floor assemblies
• Distinguish the different types and impacts of acoustic insulations on STC and ASTC
• Determine the requirements for fire resistance designs and ratings in common wall and floor assemblies
•
