TERRART® - ACOUSTIC

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the importance of soundproofing in modern architecture, highlighting the increasing noise pollution from road, rail, and air traffic. It emphasizes the need for effective soundproofing solutions like TERRART®-ACOUSTIC, which offers both acoustic performance and aesthetic flexibility.

Sound and Sound Absorption
Sound is defined as mechanical vibrations within the human hearing range. Sound absorption is crucial for creating pleasant acoustics and is influenced by the design of component surfaces. The sound absorption coefficient (αs) measures the effectiveness of sound absorption, ranging from 0 (full reflection) to 1 (full absorption).

TERRART®-ACOUSTIC Solutions
The document provides examples of TERRART®-ACOUSTIC applications, including Baguette, Profiled, and Scaled façades. Each example includes details on the product setup and sound absorption coefficients:
  • Baguette Example: Features a 50 mm ceramic baguette with a 160 mm cavity filled with mineral wool. The sound absorption coefficient varies across frequencies, with a rated coefficient of αw= 0.55, class D.
  • Profiled Façade Example: Utilizes a 40 mm ceramic panel with foam padding and a 160 mm cavity. The rated sound absorption coefficient is αw= 0.25, class E.
  • Scaled Façade Example: Involves a 40 mm ceramic panel in a scaled form with a 160 mm cavity. The rated sound absorption coefficient is αw= 0.25, class E.

Conclusion
TERRART®-ACOUSTIC provides versatile soundproofing solutions that meet both acoustic and aesthetic demands. Detailed assessments and reports are available upon request to assist in selecting the appropriate configuration for specific needs.

ARCHITECTURAL TERRACOTTASOUNDPROOFING TAKES A NEW VISUAL DIRECTION We live in a noisy world. Noise is ever-present, silence is rare. Be it road noise from outside, music from the children's bedroom or the racket next door: soundproofing is essential. Surveys performed on behalf of the Federal Environment Agency have revealed that over 70% of our population feel disturbed by increasing noise produced by road, rail and air traffic. Living in peace at home or working in a calm environment without excessive noise - this aspiration is becoming increasingly important for the majority of people. Increasing...

SOUND AND SOUND ABSORPTION Sound refers to the mechanical vibrations of an elastic body within the frequency range of human hearing. Audible range Music range Sound level Speech range Building Acoustics Room Acoustics Figure 1: Speech range - music range - audible range 1 SOUND ABSORPTION Sound absorption or sound insulation is one aspect that helps to create pleasant room acoustics. The way in which component surfaces are designed plays a key role here, because these are non-mobile components of the room. Furniture, curtains, carpets and people also constitute absorbers within a room, but they...
