Sound transmission through hollow brick walls (1999)
Journal Article
Fringuellino, M., & Smith, S. (1999). Sound transmission through hollow brick walls. Building Acoustics, 6(3), 211-224. https://doi.org/10.1260/1351010991501419

Hollow bricks and blocks are one of the most common forms of material used for wall construction found in Central and Southern Europe. The principle purpose of the perforations (holes) is to increase the thermal insulation properties. As a result of... Read More about Sound transmission through hollow brick walls.

An investigation into the reproducability results of the European ILT programme. (1999)
Journal Article
Smith, S., Pompoli, R., & Fausti, P. (1999). An investigation into the reproducability results of the European ILT programme. Building Acoustics, 6(3), 187-210. https://doi.org/10.1260/1351010991501400

In an inter-laboratory test programme (ILT) for the measurement of airborne sound insulation of lightweight walls, reproducibility values of up to 12dB were obtained from the sound reduction index measured in 21 participating laboratories. These high... Read More about An investigation into the reproducability results of the European ILT programme..

An inter-comparison of laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of lightweight plasterboard walls. (1999)
Journal Article
Pompoli, R., Fausti, P., & Smith, S. (1999). An inter-comparison of laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of lightweight plasterboard walls. Building Acoustics, 6(2), 127-140. https://doi.org/10.1260/1351010991501329

This paper describes the results of the European Inter-Laboratory Test (ILT) program, conducted for the determination of repeatability and reproducibility values for the laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of walls. A total of 24 lab... Read More about An inter-comparison of laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of lightweight plasterboard walls..
