RC stands for Resilient Channel - it's used to isolate the wall panels on one side of a wall frame from those on the other side, to improve sound isolation. For a more thorough understanding, you can download the USG manual here

once you download it, go to page 91 for a diagram of RC in a wall using wood framing... Steve
