Sound InsulationThe important principles in sound insulation are, first, isolating the studio (or room) so that it is not in rigid mechanical contact with other portions of the building; second, constructing the walls, ceiling, and floor of tight, rigid material which will not permit sound "leakage" and which will not readily vibrate; and third, lining the walls with sound-absorbing material so that any sound which is transmitted into the room will be absorbed. The isolation of machinery4 and other noise-producing sources is important. Elaborate systems for isolating the walls and other boundaries of rooms have been designed.5
