Abstract

Wooden structures are becoming quite common in the French architectural landscape, and ACOUSTB has made it a specialty regarding acoustics. Its experience ranges from office buildings to residential buildings, and from small to high-rise constructions. Airborne and impact noise insulation are of first importance. Structural aspects, construction methods and architecture are also discussed. Constructive solutions concern both CLT and traditional wood joists flooring systems, alternatives to floating screeds in office buildings and visible wooden structures in dwellings. Buildings are described, then selected constructive solutions are presented and debated with respect to targeted acoustic performance. Finally, in-situ measurement results are compared with the theory that underlays them, as well with the targeted performance.
