Improvement in Airborne Sound Insulation of Cross-Laminated Timber (Clt) Walls
, 2023 Abstract Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly used as shear walls in timber structures due to its excellent structural properties, fire resistance, dimension stability, carbon sequestration capabilities, and energy efficiency, but the effectiveness of this material for airborne sound insulation has received little attention.
