Acoustical Ceiling Tiles and Panels

In a Few Words…

Got a space with acoustic issues? Ceiling tiles and panels can make a difference, but we’ve got some bad news for you – by themselves they aren’t going to solve the problem, they’ll just help. And there is no Easter Bunny.. sorry about that.

What to look for (now that you aren’t searching for that bunny):

  • Does your room echo, echo, echo..? Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) is your friend, and it is the most common acoustic measurement for ceiling panels.
  • Annoying noises pounding down from the room above (or below!)? Sound Transmission Class (STC) can help reduce them.
  • Too much information coming through your ceiling from the office next door? Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC) can help cut down on the TMI.

Sound Ratings

There are three major ratings that relate to ceiling tile acoustics: Noise Reduction Coefficient, Sound Trasmittance Class, and Ceiling Attenuation Class. Only some tiles are rated in all three categories, and the value of each rating is only meaningful in the context of the actual installation where the tile will be used. Before describing each rating, it is important to note that these values are achieved in a laboratory, and the measurements are not considered field data. Said another way: “Your results may vary,” depending on where and how the tiles are used and what you expect of them.

Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC)

Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) is a general rating that tells you how much sound a surface (in this case a ceiling tile) will absorb. This rating is represented as either a percentage or a decimal, with 1 (or 100%) being perfect absorption and 0 (or 0%) being perfect reflection. In other words, the higher the decimal or percent, the more sound the tile will absorb. While this does give a very good idea of how a tile will perform acoustically, it does not tell you what happens to the sound the ceiling tile does not absorb.

Sound Transmission Class (STC)

Sound Transmission Class (STC) is used to rate several different types of building materials for their ability to block sound and prevent it from passing through them. This is commonly used on walls and partitions, as it is very helpful in deciding which types of partitions will properly isolate different areas of a building. STC ratings are represented as a number, usually between 1 and 100, although not limited to that range. The higher the number, the better the material is at blocking sound. A rating of 10 is considered terrible, allowing talking voices to be heard through the rated system, while a rating of 60 or more makes for an excellent sound blocker.

The STC rating is helpful, but does not tell you what will happen to sound once it is blocked. For example, a thick concrete wall might have an excellent STC rating, but it will send all sound bouncing right back into a room. This will keep the sound from passing through the wall, but will make for a very echo filled room.

Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC)

Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC) is really a completely separate rating system. While it does deal with sound absorption and attenuation, it is a bit more specific.

In an installation where a drop ceiling has been installed and walls have been installed that only reach up to the drop ceiling level, sound can pass up into the ceiling plenum, over the wall, and then back down into another room. The rate at which ceiling tiles inhibit this passage of sound is called the CAC. This rating is commonly misunderstood as a rating that describes how much sound reflects off of the face of a tile. This is a misconception, and the CAC rating should not be given as a rating to describe any sitAcoustic Flooring Contractors Kenya
