This paper reports findings from a recently completed study of sound transmission in wood framed buildings. The paper begins by showing that the impact sound insulation of floor flanking paths is strongly dependent on the distance from the flanking junction and that adding a topping to the floor modifies the sensitivity to source location. Vibration draw-away measures on the exposed floor surface are used to demonstrate the attenuation of structure borne vibration is different in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the joists, and the attenuation with distance can be significantly modified by the presence of a topping. These vibration measures and the change in Flanking-NISPL with source position indicate that diffuse field assumpt...
