Ceiling Sound Proof

tpmcnichol | Posted in General Discussion on September 24, 2004 09:44am

All,

Own a pair of flats in SF and planning on doing some renovation on the 1st floor. I’d like to design so that I incorporate sound proofing (Currently minimal). I know I’ve read some articles in FHB. 2 questions.

1) Looking for any articles but can’t find them when I need them…anyone know the issues?

2) Any thoughts on effect sound proofing?

WOW!!! What a Ride!
