Acoustic Control

Acoustic Control

Decoupling and underlay layers used within tested floor build-ups.

The problem

Impact and structure-borne sound transmits between levels through the floor build-up.

An acoustic layer is introduced to decouple the finished floor from the structure.

Typical applications

  • Apartments and multi-residential floor systems
  • Hospitals, schools and public buildings
  • Commercial fit-outs with acoustic requirements

Selection considerations

  • The complete floor build-up, including slab, underlay, screed, floor covering and ceiling below
  • Junction and perimeter detailing, which affects the installed result
  • The tested system nominated by the project acoustic consultant

Key limitations

  • Acoustic results depend on the complete tested floor system, not on any single layer.
  • Substituting or omitting a layer of a tested build-up invalidates the tested result.

Discuss Your Project

Product selection, specification and system build-up should be confirmed with Ozone for each specific project before ordering or installation.

Send us the substrate, exposure and build-up and we will confirm the system and issue the current documentation.
