Noise Isolation. Rooms separated from adjacent spaces by ceiling high partitions (not including doors) shall not be less than the following noise isolation class (NIC) standards when tested in accordance with ASTM E-336: Conference rooms: NIC 40 Offices: NIC 35
Noise Isolation. Floor/Ceiling.
1. The location of the Type 4 room is important not only from a horizontal noise perspective, but also in terms of the floor/ceiling acoustic performance.
2. The airborne noise isolation between vertically stacked spaces will meet minimum STC 50 rating.
3. Impact noise including footfall noise, movement of goods or equipment, chair scraping etc. can have a significant impact to the room acoustics. Where there is occupied space above the Type 4 room it may be necessary to include a full acoustic ceiling in the room to help control impact noise.
Noise Isolation.
2.5.3.1 It is critical to the proper operation of the VC room to achieve adequate sound isolation between the rooms and adjacent spaces and for dividable rooms, in-between the two sections.
2.5.3.2 The following targets are applicable to all VC rooms:
2.5.3.2.1 All perimeter walls must achieve a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of STC 55. The door must be targeted for a purpose built STC 45.
2.5.3.2.2 Noise isolation to rooms above and below are set at minimum STC 50.
2.5.3.2.3 A target Impact Isolation Class (IIC) 65 rating must be set for the floor/ceiling system.
2.5.3.2.4 The dividable wall shall have a rating of STC 55.
Noise Isolation.
2.6.3.1 CSR and ECSR must achieve a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of STC 50-54.
2.6.3.2 Groups of students in adjoining rooms must be able to converse at normal levels and not interrupt their colleagues in adjacent rooms. This is including the designs of the doors, walls and observation one-way mirror.
Noise Isolation. 1. It is critical to the proper functioning of the Lecture Theatre to achieve adequate sound isolation between the rooms and adjacent spaces. The adjacent spaces may include, but are not limited to, the booth, other VC rooms, regular meeting rooms, lecture rooms, washrooms, and corridors.
2. Impact noise including footfall noise, chair scraping etc can have a significant impact to the room acoustics. If there is occupied space above any of the lecture Theatre Rooms it may be necessary to include a full acoustic ceiling in the room to help impact noise.
3. The following targets are applicable to Lecture Theatre space. In renovation situations, these may require review:
a. All perimeter walls will achieve a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of STC 57 Double Stud. The door will be targeted for a purpose built STC 45;
b. Noise isolation to rooms above and below are set at minimum STC 55; and
c. A target Impact Isolation Class (IIC) 65 rating will be set for the floor/ceiling system.
Noise Isolation. 1. It is critical to the proper functioning of Classroom, Learning Space, Computer Lab, and Meeting Room type spaces to achieve adequate sound isolation between the rooms and adjacent spaces. The adjacent spaces may include, but are not limited to, other classrooms, regular meeting rooms, lecture rooms, washrooms, and corridors.
2. The following targets are applicable to Classroom, Learning Space, Computer Lab, and Meeting Room type spaces. In renovation situations, these may require review:
a. All perimeter walls will achieve a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of STC 50;
b. Noise isolation to rooms above and below are set at minimum STC 50; and
c. A target Impact Isolation Class (IIC) 45 rating will be set for the floor/ceiling system.
Noise Isolation. 1. It is critical to the proper functioning of the Gallery and Concourse & Library/Learning Commons spaces to achieve adequate sound isolation between the rooms and adjacent spaces. The adjacent spaces may include, but are not limited to:, Equipment Closets, Concourse, regular meeting rooms, lecture rooms, washrooms, and corridors.
2. The following targets are applicable to Xxxxxxx X Xxxxx Gallery and Media Gallery.
a) All perimeter walls will achieve a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of STC 55.
b) Noise isolation to rooms above and below are set at minimum STC 50. FINAL DRAFT
c) A target Impact Isolation Class (IIC) 45 rating will be set for the floor/ceiling system.
Noise Isolation. 1. It is critical to the proper functioning of the VC room to achieve adequate sound isolation between the rooms and adjacent spaces. The adjacent spaces may include, but are not limited to, the booth, other VC rooms, regular meeting rooms, lecture rooms, washrooms, and corridors.
2. The following targets are applicable to all ECU VC spaces. In renovation situations, these may require review:
