Spring-Loaded Screw Turns Drywall Into Sound-Absorbing Panels
Built 3 custom homes, all on a self-proposed budget. This one has 3 exterior walls, ( all exterior walls in the home are 2 X 6 ). Exterior is brick, air gap, 1" styroboard foil both sides, 2X6 ( 5.5" rockwool insulation ), 2 layers (1/2" each ) of " Soundstop fiberboard, screwed in 2 separate layers, then finished with 5/8" sheetrock. 8 foot movable record shelves adorn 2/3 of the side walls. Soundlab 945 Majestics, SALLIE rear attenuators, Movable listening furniture, live plants......all-analogue. |
ivan_nosnibor Not with the center self countersinking head just under the spring. That’s for a wooden joist, stud or noggin Cheers George |
I hate to respond so far down a thread but this one is too silly to ignore. Screws don't absorb sound energy. Screws don't impart the ability for an underlying material to absorb sound energy. All screws can do is anchor an underlying material and inhibit vibration; in this example to the wood framing supporting the drywall. Wood framing doesn't absorb sound energy (much) either but can make an effective diffuser IF you use enough wood and if you don't have drywall in the way. |
