Building insulation thermal insulation added to buildings for comfort and energy efficiency. While the majority of insulation in buildings is for thermal purposes the term also applies to acoustic insulation fire insulation and impact insulation e g. Mineral wool insulation building insulation is any object in a building used as insulation for any purpose. List of insulation materials.

Insulated siding home siding that includes rigid foam insulation. For vibrations caused by industrial applications. Building insulation materials are the building materials which form the thermal envelope of a building or otherwise reduce heat transfer. Acoustic foam this material commonly called studio foam has a distinctive wedge or pyramid shape that is highly effective at absorbing sound.

Thermal insulation use of materials to reduce rates of heat transfer. If you are transcluding this page into an article make sure the article has references. An acoustic metamaterial sonic crystal or phononic crystal is a material designed to control direct and manipulate sound waves or phonons in gases liquids and solids crystal lattices. Each of these acoustic materials falls into one of these categories.

Sound absorbing sound insulation sound dampening and decoupling. The presence of insulation in single 2x4 wood stud framing spaced 16 406 mm on center results in only a few stc points. Increasing the distance between source and receiver using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves using damping structures such as sound baffles or using active antinoise sound generators. Insulated pipe widely used for district heating and hot.

Soundproofing is any means of reducing the sound pressure with respect to a specified sound source and receptor. This page is intended to be transcluded into other articles therefore please try to keep the changes context neutral as they will appear in several places within the wiki. Sound wave control is accomplished through manipulating parameters such as the bulk modulus β density ρ and chirality.
