Understanding
acoustics is the first step in
determining which acoustical
materials are necessary for a
particular sound control application. These educational videos are designed to
present acoustic principles in
simple, easy to understand demonstrations.
Demonstrations include how
acoustical panels improve sound,
how to use multiple materials to
block sound, how
acoustic diffusers scatter sound
and how isolators
control mechanical sound
transmission.

This video illustrates how multiple
layers of different building
materials, such as
BlockAid® Barrier
and fiberglass, are more effective
than one single material at reducing
sound transmission and increasing STC.
Using an array of ping pong balls to
represent sound visually, this video
simply demonstrates what occurs when
sound strikes an
acoustic diffuser's
surface.
This simple vibration demonstration
challenges to provide a basic understanding of
how acoustical materials may be used to prevent
the spread of mechanical noise and vibration
through existing structures like walls, floors
and ceilings.
