Acoustic Calculator is brought to you from Norsound who manufacture specialist Acoustic seals to be used in the joinery trade. Norsound and SHN Joinery have forged a supply chain to bring the best products to work in conjunction with each other, providing unrivalled performance and expertise.
This application will figure out the acoustic resistance of a surface when a percent of the pre-mentioned surface has a different level of acoustic properties.
As complicated as this sounds it is relatively simple. If you have a wall that has a resistance of 60dB (decibels) but has a door in it with a resistance of 30dB what will the overall resistance of the wall and door be?
Due to the nature of sound and the laws of attenuation this value has exponential growth. Complicated stuff eh?! This is why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to simplify the process for you the customer and have created Acoustic Calculator.

Simply put in the values for your wall and door and click calculate!
