Hello from my garage

[RWH]

Bought my first house about 2 years ago and have been converting the detached garage into a workshop. I have done a room within a room design for soundproofing, which seems to work well. Most of any of my posts will likely be about noise, noise control and soundproofing, I can only apologise 😂

Welcome.

 

Noise reduction is an interesting area of engineering.

The automotive companies refer to it as NVH (noise, vibration and harshness).

When you think how quiet a modern car can be, especially when it is made from 0.8 mm steel, with 12 mm of soundproofing material, openings etc, and an engine racing at 6500 RPM, less than a metre from your ears, it goes to show that material density is only a tiny part of it.
