The Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute will host a webinar on “Sound Transmissions in Cold-Formed Steel Constructions” on Thursday, December 3, 2015 at 3:00 PM EST. The webinar is designed for architects, engineers, building officials and contractors. Participants are eligible for 1.5 PDHs.
With higher densification in urban centers, issues of sound insulation are becoming increasingly important in North America. Historically, requirements for sound insulation have focused on the transmission directly through the separating building assembly, but in practice a significant proportion of the sound between two adjacent rooms travels via flanking paths.
