Can rubber joist isolators be used to create soundproof floors

Publish Time: 2021-10-25     Origin: Site

Modern buildings should be able to provide people with healthy and comfortable living space, so the sound insulation of the floor slab also puts forward higher requirements. As a practical and effective sound insulation measure, epdm rubber u-boat floor floaters are gradually applied to some high-end residential buildings. The floating floor constructed by u boat rigging isolator can become a model of green building.

Why floor joist isolators can be called a model of green building?

In the construction industry, green, ecological and environmentally friendly floor joist isolators have gradually gained the favor of architects and users.

With the massive construction of green buildings, the application of floor joist isolators is constantly being developed. The indoor acoustic environment is not only related to people's physical health and comfort in life, but also related to neighborhood relationships.

An important source of indoor noise is floor impact noise, which is conveyed through solids, with little attenuation of noise energy, and has a wider impact range than airborne noise. The use of floor joist isolators can effectively cut off the way of noise, which has an effect beyond imagination.

Through on-site inspection of the impact sound pressure levels of floor slabs with different structures and different construction techniques, the results show that the floating floor slabs with floor joist isolators meet the requirements of the standard, which provides a reference for optimizing floor structure.


How to ensure the proper quality of floor joist isolators?

As green building positioned residences, there should be some investment in floor joist isolators, and it is necessary to ensure the substantial application of floor joist isolators quality.

Although floor joist isolators have excellent appearance in terms of materials, size and so on, if the construction process and quality are not properly controlled, the sound insulation effect of floor joist isolators will be greatly affected. Therefore, it is necessary to control the quality of the construction process of floor joist isolators.

1. Before setting up floor joist isolators, the floor structure layer should be cleaned up so that the installation environment is level, free of protrusions, and kept dry.

2. There is no need to bond between floor joist isolators and the floor, and they are directly laid on the floor. The joints of floor joist isolators are sealed with tape to prevent displacement of the upper concrete during construction, and cement mortar infiltrates under the sound insulation material.

3. In order to prevent floor joist isolators from being damaged when the concrete protective layer is poured, a protective film can be covered on it to reduce the risk of cracks in the fine stone concrete layer.

4. If it is an area where floor heating is used, then another layer of insulation board should be laid on the above-mentioned protective film to ensure that floor joist isolators will not be affected or even damaged during the construction and operation of floor heating.


Do floor joist isolators have an advantage in cost performance generally?

In addition to floor joist isolators, laying elastic cushions on the floor surface, such as carpets, wooden floors and other materials, can also effectively block the propagation of floor impact sound.

However, this method requires expensive materials, so it is generally used in hotels, hotels and some high-end residential buildings, and is not suitable for the green building requirements of general affordable housing.

If you do not choose floor joist isolators, but make the choice of sound isolation hanger, it can also basically meet the requirements of isolating impact sound. However, it occupies more building floors, and the construction is complicated and the cost is high. Sound isolation hangers are generally applicable to public buildings, but it is difficult to promote in affordable housing.

Floor joist isolators, as an effective measure to reduce floor impact noise, not only have the advantages of simple structure, convenient construction, and less floor height, but also relatively low cost. In order to meet the green building evaluation standards, it can isolate the floor with less incremental cost.

Therefore, on the whole, u-boat floor floaters for sound isolation have greater economic and applicability for the construction of green affordable housing.


Floor joist isolators are used in green buildings to create a quiet and comfortable living space for residents.
