Hakan, the foamed, aerated concrete has one difference to AAC, in that the cells are sealed. AAC (Hebel, or Ytong) tends to have more porous structure. I agree that the way you are talking is better, using insulation Gypsum sheet. regards Doug On Thursday 28 April 2005 12:44, Hakan Falk

JD, I could only see the word acoustic in a few places, but nothing with substance. Unfortunately a lot of people think about acoustic as something magical, when it in reality follow the laws of physics. The problem is that very small construction errors, can make a special construction

Hi; Thanks to everyone for the response. I contacted an australian company about the cellular concrete and they do endorse it for use as a sound and thermal insulator. see www.buildlite.com.au Of more interest is the use of a tractor silencer or special silencer like the salt water idea.

Why not make a Cellular concrete housing? Cellular concrete is made by adding foam (which looks like shaving foam) to a cement mortar mix. Check buildlite.com.au or other googled resources for more info. regards Doug On Thursday 28 April 2005 4:53, JD2005 wrote: Great Chears Hakan;

JD, It is good that it is in the cellar, that make it easy to do vibration insulation, which is dependent of the mass of foundation. I need noise data, you should be able to get it from Changfa. It does not matter, but dB in octave band with spread diagram is best. Minimum you get is always

You need to control air temperature as well. As for vibration there are rubber clad cork or polymer isolation mounts that are used by installers of equipment such as air conditioning packages. Each square inch supports a certain weight so you can determine what you need. Kirk JD2005 [EMAIL

Doug, Because chances are that it is not that effective as sound insulation and rather the opposite, it will work like a microphone membrane. Sweden has been leading in this field and it is a lot of manufacturing of Ytong around the world, on license from the Swedish company. Again, 35+ years

Kirk, You brought up something very important and the reason for that many make vibration insulation does not work. To have an effective insulation, it must work like a spring with space for both upward and downward movement. In many cases the designer do not realize this and over dimension
