Abstract

Short cuts in commercial construction often lead to acoustical problems after occupancy. In this example, a restroom was located immediately adjacent to the private office of a top executive in a hospital office building. Plumbing noise and vibration were being transmitted through the common partition’s structure and through airborne paths. Short comings in the partition design and construction are discussed and several noise paths are identified. Recommended solutions are outlined and after implementation the client was pleased with the result.
