Resilient Channel
Resilient channel (RC) is a popular option in acoustic design and construction. While RC promises a huge positive effect on the acoustical performance of a wall.
Resilient channel dampens sound waves effectively, dissipating the energy and reducing sound transmission by suspending the drywall.
- Improves room to room sound transmission
- Suitable for multiple unit buildings and recording studio walls
- Used for both wall and ceiling applications
Ceilings have a way of really showing defects when the drywall is not installed properly.
Strapping the ceiling also has the added benefit of reducing noise transfer, from the floor above if you use an advanced material like reseliant channel.
