Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talk at conference or symposiumScience to science

Description

In Austria, building with wood for multi-storey residential buildings started in 1996. It was a big adventure at that time to meet the high Austrian sound insulation requirements with that new develloped wood based building constructions. During the past 25 years a lot of different wood based multi-storey residential buildings, lightweight and massive, have been built. The styrian government performed a lot of quality measurements between the dwellings in this buildings. The results of this measurements were collected now in a database and an analysis was carried out. This talk shows some results for the different building constructions and gives an overview and a comparision of their sound insulation performance.
