Scope of Use

Whisperwall:

  • Developed to provide superior acoustic properties with additional fire rated properties
  • Interior wall construction

Double Steel:

  • Generally used where two way FRR (Fire Resistance Rating), or superior acoustic performance is required

Staggered Stud:

  • Commonly used to provide effective resistance to sound transmission and acoustic impact
