How to soundproof a wall
To soundproof a wall, decoupling and enhancing its ability to absorb and dampen sound energy is crucial. Sound travels through solid materials via contact so decoupling can be achieved by building a new wall with a gap, making it harder for vibration to travel. Adding resilience allows the wall to flex and dampen the vibration (similar to how the suspension springs in a car help to absorb bumps in the road) while adding extra layers of mass helps block airborne noise (different types of mass block different frequencies). The ReductoClip Independent Wall System is the ultimate solution for blocking unwanted noise through a party wall, meeting all requirements.
The 3 main principles of soundproofing:
Isolation
Isolating or 'decoupling' one side of the structure creates a sound breaker
Damping
Elastic or damping materials help to absorb sound energy and vibrations
Mass
Helps to block airborne sound. Different types of mass block different frequencies of sound
