Fire-Rated & Acoustic Systems

Partitions and ceilings built to tested specifications for fire resistance and sound insulation.

Line drawing: plan section of a partition with two layers of board each side and acoustic insulation, reducing sound passing through.

What it involves

Where walls and ceilings need to resist fire or reduce noise, their performance depends on building the system exactly as it was tested. Board type, number of layers, stud size and spacing, insulation and the detailing of every junction all matter.

  • Reviewing the drawings and specification to confirm the fire rating or acoustic performance required.
  • Installing fire-rated or acoustic plasterboard in the specified layers and fixing pattern.
  • Building in acoustic insulation, and resilient or independent framing where specified.
  • Detailing perimeters, junctions and openings as the system specification requires.
