KINETICS® CWCA and Wallmat Stud Wall Isolation
Stop noise from flanking around noise-isolated ceilings and floors.
- Resilient separation of the stud wall from subfloors and ceilings
- Requires less floor space than isolated drywall or a secondary stud wall
- Required even when using double-stud and staggered-stud walls
Resiliently decouples the top plate of a wood-framed wall from existing floor joists.
The strength of the bracket and capacity of the rubber isolation components provide structural integrity and allow wide spacing between brackets.
CWCA brackets include angle bracket, (2) isolation bushings, and attachment hardware.
Bracket spacing: First bracket should be no more than 16" from each corner, then spaced evenly, not to exceed 48" on center.
Allow 1/2" to 1-1/2" of clearance between bottom of joist and top of stud wall.
