greyman's studio

Dear John! After going through some of constuction footages of greymans' studio i have found that TOTAL WALL THICKNESSof its' studio is 362mm .....250mm Brick wall (both sides plastered) + 75mm sealed air cavity + 25mm insulation + 12mm plywood, would you please tell me by using such construction how much STC can be achieve? I am quiet favorable for using gypsum solution rather going for plywood. Painted and non-painted also effect some how in acoustics ? luv charoo

charoo - I can't give you an exact figure but it would be pretty good. Plastering both sides of the brick increases the STC of the brick wall. http://www.saecollege.de/reference_mate ... 0Chart.htm check the hollow concrete block down the page - rendered increases the STC by 3db. cheers john

great data ! Well construction style of my space includes a double wall 10" construction 1" air gap, control room is made up of heavy stone slabs. What type of insulation scheme u recommend for me John? luv charoo
