Partition Wall section make up for Building Reg Part E2

[SIPslidingaway]

Hi Guys,

 

Trying to get my head around partition wall make up to pass Part E2 of the regs in England and Wales.

 

I am looking to use 100mm Mineral Sound Insulation (10kg/m2density) between partition walls and floors. Will this work with single lining of standard 12.5mm plasterboard, or do I still need to double the plasterboard (standard) or use E10 Blue Sound Board to pass E2?

 

Any help gladly received.

 

Thanks

 

Ben

Use single 15 mil soundblock 

If your above a ceiling Use a single strip of 15 mil sound block under the sole plate or floor track

 

You will get better acoustic performance from metal C stud than timber
