The demand for noise control is increasing due to a growing population, greater expectations of sound privacy, and an increasing awareness of the harmful effects of noise pollution. Noise control is a key component of design because it affects occupant privacy and well-being. This course reviews the design of floor-ceiling assemblies to improve acoustics and occupant wellness.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

• Discuss the importance of noise control and the harm caused by noise pollution.
• Define the acoustic rating systems used to measure noise reduction.
• Explore the different types of acoustic floor underlayments available in the industry and their role in reducing noise pollution and creating safe, quiet environments.
• Identify elements that go into acoustic ceiling assemblies.
• Examine applications for noise-controlling floor-ceiling assemblies and their contribution to occupant well-being.
