Noishield Sound Barrier












 

Noishield


Sound Barriers:

Freestanding Barriers:
Noishield Types: FS and SFS Barriers - sound absorptive on one and two sides respectively - optimize sound transmission loss and sound absorbing properties in a durable and attractive wall system in harmony with the community.
• Excellent low frequency absorption for heavy equipment
• Laboratory-rated sound absorption on one or both sides
• Low weight, rugged construction - ideal for wall or roof mounting
• 5-in thick modular metal module system in steel or aluminum
• Abuse resistant dual-coated, galvannealed steel or aluminum construction
• Withstands wind velocities of 110 mph - designs for specific wind loads available
• Readily relocated in the event of expansion or other projects

Cladding Barriers:
Noishield Type C Cladding Modules - sound absorption to control reflections from acoustically hard barriers.
• Apple to new or exisiting wood, concrete, or steel barriers to reduce reflected noise levels in the community
• Retrofit existing barriers to eliminate or mitigate noise complaints.
• Low weight rugged construction - ideal for retrofit applications
• Laboratory rated sound absorption coefficients
• Abuse resistant galvannealed steel or aluminum construction
• Individual modules readily manufactured and replaced if damaged

Easy Installation:
Noishield Sound Barriers are engineered from the foundation up for structural and acoustical integrity and economical installation. Low weight modules stack between posts to achieve required wall heights. Noishield barriers can be installed with horizontal or vertical reveals to satisfy aesthetic and architectural consideration.

Weather Resistance:
Noishield Sound Barrier Modules are constructed with sold top surfaces to minimize water infusion and perforated bottom surfaces to also any entrapped water to escape. Infill is non-hygroscopic - water does not "wick" into the modules. Hence, traditional polymer fill protection is neither required or desirable due to adverse effects on sound absorbing characteristics.

Finishes:
Noishield Barriers are finished with a tough, thermosetting, polyester powder coating which is not damaged by the harsh cleaning chemicals used to remove spray paint graffiti. A wide variety of standard colors allow complementary decorative schemes and attractive designs to reduce apparent wall height as perceived by the community.

Acoustic Performance:
Barriers are rated with sound transmission loss values fully compatible with typical barrier performance requirements.

All barriers incorporate sound absorbing materials to prevent noise reflections that degrade sound barrier performance. Type C modules are used to clad new or existing non-absorbing barriers while Type FS and SFS are freestanding walls which combine sound transmission loss and high sound absorption ratings.

*Freestanding Type FSt is used for applications requiring 125 Hz insertion loss between 10 to 14 dB.
