A sound damping wallboard and methods of forming a sound damping wallboard are disclosed. The sound damping wallboard comprises a gypsum layer with a gypsum surface having an encasing layer. The encasing layer is partially removed to expose the gypsum surface and form a gypsum surface portion and a first encasing layer portion on the gypsum layer. A sound damping layer is applied to the gypsum layer to cover at least part of the gypsum surface portion and the encasing layer portion.

A multilayer acoustic and shock absorbing cushion, consisting of a buffer layer, two waterproof moisture-permeable layers respectively mounted on the corresponding two sides of the buffer layer, and two surface layers respectively mounted on each side of the waterproof moisture-permeable layers away from or at a distance from by the buffer layer. The buffer layer, each of the waterproof moisture-permeable layers, and each of the surface layers are needle punched and bonded to form a single body. The multilayer acoustic and shock absorbing cushion of the present invention is primarily used in building partitions and wall systems to prevent noise and vibration produced when household residents are doing physical activities from disturbing other neighbors. The multilayer acoustic and shock absorbing cushion is further provided with advantages including acoustic and shock absorbing functions, anti-efflorescence ability, and good cement bonding stability.

In one aspect, a folded ceiling baffle is constructed from a sheet of felt. For example, in a particular implementation, the folded ceiling baffle is constructed from a sheet of felt having respective portions of shape and size that may be folded to form the ceiling baffle.

A system for introducing a noise-dampening polymer in-line in the manufacturing process of a manufactured wood product to achieve higher acoustic performance in siding, sheathing, roofing, flooring, and similar applications using the manufactured wood product. Several lines or bands of the noise-dampening polymer are deposited transversely across one side or face of the product. The polymer is deposited where the product is expected to contact joists or studs. The polymer may be a viscoelastic polymer.

The present disclosure relates generally to ceiling attachments, for example, suitable for securing ceiling baffles to a ceiling grid. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a ceiling baffle attachment structure including a ceiling grid clip configured to attach to lateral flanges of a ceiling grid beam and a post extending down from the ceiling grid clip. The structure also includes a ceiling baffle having an upper side and a lower side and extending along a length from a first end to a second end. The ceiling baffle includes a bracket disposed at the upper side that comprises a T-slot extending along the length of the ceiling baffle. A retainer is secured to the post and includes a first shoulder engaging the T slot so as to secure the ceiling baffle to the ceiling grid clip.

A collapsible acoustic honeycomb ceiling installation can be made by cutting desired material into panels. Next, a manufacturer can cut one or more notches into the panels. The manufacturer can assemble the collapsible acoustic honeycomb ceiling installation by aligning the one or more notches on the panels and slideably connecting the panels. The resultant collapsible acoustic honeycomb ceiling installation can provide a versatile decorative feature to a space while maintaining or altering the acoustics of the space as desired. Further, because the ceiling installation is collapsible, a manufacturer or installer can easily transport, install, and remove the ceiling installation.
