Soundproofing of plasterboard walls: materials, installation

1

Soundproofing of walls from gypsum cardboard allowssignificantly reduce the audibility in the premises of apartment buildings. The framework for plasterboard partitions is fixed to the bearing structures of the house, so shock sound waves are transferred to metal profiles and plasterboard. The installation of noise insulation contributes to the extinction of sound, which greatly improves the living conditions of people. In order to effectively reduce the noise level, it is necessary to select and install a soundproof material correctly. The device of a metal frame under gypsum cardboardThe device of a metal skeleton under gypsum cardboard.

Selection of materials for creating a soundproof layer

Increase the sound insulation will help laying inside the gypsum cardboard walls of high-quality sound-absorbing material. The scheme of the device of the partition from gypsum cardboard withnoise insulation. The substance that forms such a layer must be durable and strong. The material chosen for sound insulation must have low thermal conductivity and minimal water absorption. The absorber, placed inside the walls, should fit well and be easy to use. To create an in-wall layer of soundproofing, different materials can be used. Mineral or fiberglass wool, well suited for soundproofing walls, require mandatory installation of waterproofing. To reduce noise can be with the help of spray coatings, the use of which allows you to adjust the thickness of the insulation layer. Sound insulation of walls can be made with the help of modern volumetric membrane materials that are easy to stack and have high insulating properties. Back to contents</a>

Installation of sound-absorbing panels

To work on the assembly and skinning of the frame, you will need tools: Principle of sound absorption.

  • laser level;
  • drill;
  • Screwdriver;
  • building stapler.

Materials:

  • metal profile;
  • elastic polymer tape;
  • gypsum board (from 12 mm);
  • mineral wool plates (thickness from 100 mm);
  • polyethylene film;
  • self-tapping screws;
  • sealant.

The work is carried out in the following order: Principle of soundproofing.

  • The walls are marked under the frame of gypsum board, using the level.
  • The profile is exposed along the perimeter of the wallsurface (or between walls, if a false wall is being built), then fix the guiding profiles in steps of 40-60 cm, fixing them with self-tapping screws through 60 cm.
  • At the edges of the frame to increase the sound insulation of the walls lay an elastic insulation tape, which should fit tightly to the profile and the base.
  • In the case of the construction of a new wall, the frame from one side is lined with GKL using special screws.
  • In the cells between the elements of the crate, the mineral wool plates intended for sound insulation are laid.
  • At the top, overlap the lime with waterproofing, attaching the film with a stapler.
  • Over the frame filled with insulating material, the plasterboard skin is made.
  • Seams, available between the skin and the floor, fill with sealant.
  • Now you can fill the seams and performfinishing the walls of plasterboard. The technology used can reduce the noise level to small values, since the combination of the air layer (in front of the crate) and the loose structure of the mineral wool thoroughly extinguishes the sounds. The noise insulation of walls simultaneously fulfills the function of their insulation, which is especially in demand in corner apartments. If the room requires enhanced sound insulation, then it can be obtained by arranging the hard and elastic materials. Such a combined soundproofing can be created, for example, by the combination of cork and fiberglass materials. Back to contents</a>

    Combined barrier device

    Combined noise insulation of walls is mounted on a metal frame. To work you will need tools: Soundproofing table for various materials.

    • Screwdriver;
    • building stapler.

    Materials:

    • drywall;
    • cork panels;
    • glass wool;
    • polyethylene film;
    • self-tapping screws;
    • sealant.

    Work in this order:

  • In the frame cells are laid, fixing, cork panels.
  • On top, the cork is covered with a waterproofing film, laying it overlapping and fastening with a stapler.
  • Glass wool is mounted on top of the film, which is then again covered with waterproofing.
  • On the layer of sound-proof materials with the help of screws make installation of drywall.
  • Slots at the floor level are filled with a sealant.
  • Correct choice of noise absorbing material andinstallation, made according to the technology, will reliably isolate the room from extraneous sounds. The noise insulation of walls made of gipsokartonnyh sheets, will also increase sound absorption in the apartment itself, which will not allow loud sounds to penetrate to the neighbors. The method of erecting gypsum plasterboard walls with a noise insulation layer is simple, therefore installation can be done by own forces. The cost of time and money for noise insulation is fully justified by the effect obtained from it. </ ul>
