Sound Transmission Class4.1 The construction industry has adopted Sound Transmis-sion Class (STC) units (defined in Definitions C 634) to ratethe

9、 sound barrier properties of walls, ceilings, and floors. TheSTC is determined in accordance with Classification E 413.The test data are obtained in accordance with Test MethodsE90orE336.NOTE 1For example, The Department of Housing and Urban Devel-opment (DHUD) has issued the following three standar

It should berecognized for slit openings that the STC values may bedifferent from the STC value for a hole opening.1This practice is under t

16、e Sealant7.1 Fig. 4 shows typical sealant applications.8. Types of Sealant for Acoustical Improvement8.1 Preformed SealantsPreformed sealants include gas-keting, tapes, and preformed foams. Most of these materials areeffective only when the tolerances of the perimeter joints canbe accurately predict

17、ed and installed to those tolerances. Jointsizes vary widely and preformed sealants may have difficulty inmaintaining a proper seal at all points with the constantcompression that is necessary to effect a seal. Preformedsealants in the form of pads have proved to be effective forsealing electric, te

18、lephone, and television jack boxes.8.2 Gunnable SealantsThese sealants have the capacity ofconforming to the wide range of joint sizes encountered inmost construction. The following types are available:8.2.1 Skinning and Drying SealantsSkinning and dryingsealants such as asphalt- and oil-based caulk

19、ing compoundsperform satisfactorily initially but within a short period of timecould begin to shrink, harden, crack, and lose adhesion, therebylosing their effectiveness in providing a positive seal. Many ofthese sealants tend to stain the walls. Specification C 570references these sealant types.8.2

20、.2 Nondrying, Nonhardening, Nonskinning SealantsOfall the products evaluated to date, the nondrying, nonharden-ing, nonskinning types of sealant have proven to be the mosteffective in reducing sound transmission. By remaining indefi-nitely flexible as well as permanently adhesive, they canmaintain a

21、 positive airtight seal. These sealants normally arenonbleeding and will not stain walls. The nonskinning mate-rials should be used only in concealed areas. When used asexposed beads, they may stain through paint or pick up dirt.8.2.3 Nonoxidizing, Skinning SealantsSealants that skin,retain flexibil

22、ity, and maintain adhesion can be effective inreducing sound transmission. These sealants are preferred inexposed bead applications, as they readily accept paint andother finishes.8.2.4 Latex-Based SealantsLatex-based sealants that re-tain flexibility and maintain adhesion can be effective inreducin

25、lity of Exposed Beads of Sealants9.1 Sealant beads are usually painted if they are exposed.Because of the wide variety of types and brands of interiorpaint and the variety of types and brands of sealants, on-sitepaintability and stain tests are recommended.9.2 Paint applied before the sealant has cu

26、red may crackduring the curing process of the sealants. A reasonable sealantcure time should be allowed before painting. The sealantmanufacturer should be consulted regarding the recommendedcure time prior to painting. (Structural movement may causepaint to crack.)10. Keywords10.1 acoustical; sealan
