Now if you& 39;re really on your ceiling soundproofing, you have d & 39; an audio clip and fur chain method float. This setup is very similar to the RC-1 d & 39; installation, however, the system sound clips will more than double the & 39; soundproofing and impact isolation & 39; d & 39; protection perfectly installed RC-1. Basically you& 39;ll need an audio clip & 39; for every 4 square feet of ceiling. For example, if your ceiling is 400 sq. m. total pi, you will need 100 sound clips to complete the installation & 39;. Check with manufacturers d & 39; facilities for more detailed instructions d & 39; installation. Once you have the sound clips screwed to the joists, you will have to break in the chain of tartar. & 39; We have not talked much on metal chains or fur hat " " chain, as they are commonly called, so let me briefly describe this document. Fur chain, or a hat channel is a galvanized steel chain which is 7 / 8 " tall and measures 2 3 / 8 " flange to flange. At the & 39; use fur channels at the same time that sound clips, you still want to buy the 25 gauge channels as opposed to 20 gauge, which is too steep for this application. The fur chain will be compressed by hand and displays & 39; s perfectly into the joists mounted sound clips. The chain lines will be spaced 2 to 3 & 39; separately (check the instructions & 39; installation). The first line starts around 4 " in the adjacent wall, then each line will be spaced 2 to 3 & 39; separately. Now comes the fun part! You saw the new drywall directly into the canal fur, keeping the screw closest to the centre of the hat chain as possible. If the plasterboard responds directly to the middle of & 39; a chain, make sure d & 39; stagger the screws to the length of drywalls (replacing one on each side of the seam). Now, just as with RC-1 installation, you must maintain a " gap around the perimeter of the new floating ceiling where the drywall does not touch adjacent walls. Once again, this area will be sealed with & 39; OSI-175 acoustic caulking material, and you tape, mud, paint and ceiling, d & 39; as usual. You have the & 39; people, its professional isolation at a fraction of the cost " Big Boys " costs. A good analogy afloat ceiling method is to view your ceiling as being like a trampoline. The new ceiling must not communicate with & 39; adjacent walls and, therefore, it is free to make its elastic thing only. Keep in mind & 39; l l & 39; impact that & 39; isolation is made to sound clip and joists part where there is a thick neoprene rubber seal on the clip that breaks the circuit between the sub - floor above and the new floating ceiling.
Lastly, if you are able to float 2 layers of plasterboard on the sound bites, it is recommended & 39; use his green Colle composed anchorage between 2 layers of plasterboard. J & 39; hopes that this article was informative and gives you the & 39; hope that you can soundproof apartment or condo these neighbors & 39; crush the floor.
