Included are fixtures, services,drains, permanent mechanical installationsfor access, glazing, partitions, ceilings andtemporary supports.Fixture An article intended to remainpermanently attached to and form partof a building.Impact insulation class (IIC) A single numberrating derived from measured values ofnormalized impact sound pressure levels inaccordance with Method of ASTM E 492,Annex A1, Laboratory Measurement ofImpact Sound Transmission Through FloorCeiling Assemblies Using the TappingMachine. It provides an estimate of theimpact sound insulating performance of afloor-ceiling assembly.Sound transmission class (STC) A singlenumber rating derived from measuredvalues of transmission loss in accordancewith classification ASTM E 413,Determination of Sound Transmission Class.It provides an estimate of the performanceof a partition in certain common soundinsulation situations.Habitable space A space used for activitiesnormally associated with domestic living,but excludes any bathroom, laundry, watercloset, pantry, walk-in wardrobe, corridor,hallway, lobby, clothes-drying room, or otherspace of a specialised nature occupiedneither frequently nor for extended periods.Household unit means any building or groupof buildings, or part of any building or groupof buildings, used or intended to be usedsolely or principally for residential purposesand occupied or intended to be occupiedexclusively as the home or residence of notmore than one household; but does notinclude a hostel or boardinghouse or otherspecialised accommodation.D E PA R T M E N T O F B U I L D I N G A N D H O U S I N GJuly 19929

Acceptable Solution G6/AS1A I R B O R N E A N D I M PA C T S O U N DAcceptable Solution G6/AS11.0Construction of Wall, Floor andCeiling Assemblies1.0.1 Sound transmission through buildingelements, shall be minimised by using one ormore of the following construction techniques:Amend 2Dec 1995a) Physical separation of building elementscomprising each face of any wall, floor orceiling assembly which is common to twoor more occupied spaces.1.0.3 Building elements constructed as shownin Figures 2 to 5 are an acceptable solution.COMMENT:1. Where carpet on underlay is shown in the figures, it isa requirement of the Acceptable Solution.2. The glass fibre insulation shown in the figures has adensity no less than 10 kg/m3.b) Use of noise control building elements.c) Avoidance of rigid service connections(e.g. in plumbing) where the reticulationpasses through noise control buildingelements separating different occupancies.d) Making the noise control installation airtightby sealing all joints between buildingelements, and around penetrations andservice fittings.COMMENT:1. Common walls should not be used for mountingfixtures and appliances which are likely to be a sourceof noise, e.g. telephones, TV sets, stereos, cupboardswith doors, service switches.2. Where the location of services in common walls andceilings is unavoidable, they may require additionalairborne and impact sound insulation in order that thebuilding element achieves the performance.3. Airtightness of common partition elements isimportant, as an unsealed air space can in somecircumstances amplify, rather than reduce sound.Amend 2Dec 19951.0.2 Figure 1 is a schematic presentationshowing the building elements which requirenoise control between a household unit and thehabitable spaces of an adjoining household unit.D E PA R T M E N T O F B U I L D I N G A N D H O U S I N G1 December 199513
