Do structural insulated panels block sound transmission?
A: SIPs are especially effective at blocking high frequency noise and most
homeowners notice the quiet comfort of a SIP home. However, low frequency
sounds are not as effectively stopped by a SIP building envelope. For multifamily
and commercial buildings, a universal sound transmission coefficient (STC) is
used to specify the sound resistance of wall assemblies.
