The noise of the big city, the invasion of ather sounds is the trouble of modern civilization, escape from which we offer via tightly closed windows and doors. But now the doors are locked, the windows too, and there seems to be successfully removed extraneous sounds, but the apartment for some reason is still a feeling of discomfort and echoing voices relatives. In such situations, modern materials can help us.
The main and the largest of the reflector shock, airborne noise and vibration of all kinds in any room - this, of course, the floor and ceiling, and then the wall. Therefore, in areas that require additional sound absorption and alignment of acoustics, the optimal solution becomes finish surfaces with perforated plates. These rectangular gypsum sheets with a thickness of 12, 5 mm solve the problem of the interior - making it more comfortable acoustic environment for all occupants of the room, an apartment or a private house.
Acoustic sheets are available with different types of perforation: round, square or scattered. Figure perforations may be located across the plate or grouped in blocks. Pasted on the back of the sound-absorbing layer of non-woven fabric in black or white. Perforation works as a diffuser and diffuser gently absorbing sound waves. As a result of lost echo effect, increases the intelligibility of speech, missing the extra noise that prevent us from fully perceive and relax. Perforated acoustic panels - a great idea for a complete wall and ceiling especially for music lovers. This solution will provide clear sound in the room where is the music. Residents of apartment buildings are often interested in good sound absorption in the bedrooms and hallways, children's rooms.
And, of course, sheets indispensable for decoration cinemas, museums, theater rooms, auditoriums in universities and schools in all places where the quality of acoustics apply the most stringent requirements.
Combining acoustic sheets with sheets of plasterboard, different types of perforations can make interesting design, create some sort of mosaic from gypsum plasterboard. Also you must know that gypsum plasterboards are plastic so you can use them for any type of walls and ceiling.
In this case, designers should remember physics, since rounded walls really affect the acoustics. If you intend to build a convex surface, then the sound will be dissipated. And if in the interior are made concave walls or partitions, or oval cabinet, the sound of the space inside, in contrast, will be concentrated.
With the help of perforated sheets may mount ceiling using steel profiles and suspensions. Ceiling, in this case, may be layered or shaped. In general, work is performed with acoustic sheets in the same way as with standard plasterboard sheets.
Plates may be repaint as many times as you can afford, and all without losing acoustic properties. Enough to include fantasy. This property allows a maximum integrate acoustic panel conceived design.
Another interesting technique for design space is using perforation "transmission", for example, to build internal illumination in decorative partitions, niches or columns.
Every inhabitant of the apartment building remains open another thorny issue - poor sound insulation. Here, the perforated sheet may also be useful. But then the first veneered walls of the apartments standard plasterboard sheet (by the way the properties of gypsum themselves are high due to the relation between the mass and stiffness of the material), then drywall sheets are covered with mineral wool, and the top "sandwich" completes the acoustic sheet. In such a combination can achieve the effect of insulation from neighbors and acoustic comfort inside the room.
Well, we can only imagine how many architectural creation of interiors can be implemented using material intended "only" to increase the acoustic comfort rooms.
