摘要:
A sound-deadening laminate, comprising a structural skin having a first face; and a layer of sound-deadening material, wherein the material has an equivalent Young's Modulus between 50 and 600 psi and is attached to the first face of the structural skin to form a laminate structure. The sound deadening laminate may be attached to framing members of a building.
摘要:
Building component assemblies include a sound-deadening board having defined compressional stiffness positioned between a framing member and an assembly board.

A pipe insulation system includes a tubular core of fibrous insulation and a flexible closed cell foam layer overlaying the core and forming an outer surface of the system. The tubular core has a first longitudinal slit extending completely through the wall of the core and a second longitudinal slit in the inner surface of the tubular core, opposite the first slit, that forms a hinge permitting the tubular core to be opened and closed to place the system about a pipe. Preferably, the foam layer has a water vapor permeance rating of 0.02 perms or less and the pipe insulation system includes a seal for sealing the first slit so that an outer surface layer of the sealed system formed by the foam layer and seal has a water vapor permeance rating of 0.02 perms or less.

A device suitable for conducting an on-site measurement of the density and/or R-value of a gas-permeable material is provided, comprising: a chamber comprising a first port and a second port; a diffuser in fluid communication with the second port of the chamber, wherein the diffuser comprises a diffuser port for conveying a gas flow to or from a gas-permeable material, and wherein the area of the diffuser port is greater than the area of the second port; a pressure sensor arranged to measure the pressure in the chamber; a temperature sensor arranged to measure the temperature of a gas in the chamber; and a relative humidity sensor arranged to measure the relative humidity in the chamber.
摘要:
An underlayment for supplementing one or more mechanical properties of conventional wall, ceiling, or floor board is used to in a wall, ceiling, or floor assembly that may be fabricated on site. The assembly includes a first and second wall, ceiling, or floor boards which each have mechanical properties, and the underlayment which has at least one supplemental mechanical property for supplementing the physical properties of the first and second boards. The second board is secured to the first board with the underlayment sandwiched between the second and first boards to form a wall, ceiling, or floor assembly with the supplemental physical property or properties of the underlayment. The supplemental physical property or properties of the underlayment may include, but are not limited to, sound transmission reduction.
