The present invention relates to: a floor tile including a fabric material, and comprising a balancing layer, a noise prevention layer, a functional sheet layer, a fabric material layer, and a surface coating layer; and a manufacturing method thereof and more specifically to a floor tile including a fabric material and a manufacturing method thereof, the floor tile being a functional tile having a natural texture and a three-dimensional effect possessed by the fabric material, having excellent durability, preventing delamination of the fabric material layer, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties such as tensile strength, and enhancing cleaning facilitation.

A sound isolation assembly comprising: a center ferrule; a top grommet isolator; a bottom grommet isolator; a spring; and a furring channel engagement portion. The sound isolation assembly is configured to engage with a structure and a furring channel, which itself is connected to a ceiling panel, such that the noise passing from one floor to the other is lessened as compared to a control system that does not use the sound isolation assembly. The spring may be steel and the grommet isolators may be rubber or the like, and the combination of the steel spring and grommet isolators reduces noise.

A method of reducing sound transmission in a building constructed using horizontal cross laminated timber (CLT) panels to provide a floor of the building and a floor assembly are described. In an implementation, the method includes: attaching a plurality of energy transmission control mounts to a ceiling side of one or more of the cross-laminated timber panels using fasteners; attaching a plurality of furring channels to the energy transmission control mounts; and attaching a cross laminated timber sheet to the plurality of furring channels to form an exposed ceiling layer.

A sound insulation structure for a building includes: a floor material; a ceiling material opposed to the floor material in a vertical direction with a space in a building interposed therebetween; a partition wall extending in the vertical direction and partitioning the space into a first space and a second space adjacent to each other in a horizontal direction; and at least one face material out of a floor-side sound insulation face material stuck to a portion of the floor material in a range of a thickness of the partition wall and having a coincidence frequency different from that of the floor material, and a ceiling-side sound insulation face material stuck to a portion of the ceiling material in the range of the thickness of the partition wall and having a coincidence frequency different from that of the ceiling material.

A building connection includes a first building element and a second building element arranged at a distance from each other. The first building element is connected to the second building element by at least one connecting device. The connecting device includes a load transfer element arranged in the first building element, and a support box molded into the second building element. The support box includes an inner bottom wall surface and a support box opening facing the first building element. The connecting device further includes a first sound-absorbing element arranged on the inner bottom wall surface of the support box, and a support plate which is arranged on top of the first sound-absorbing element. The load transfer element protrudes from the first building element and into the support box through the support box opening. A filling area is molded with a filling material. The filling area includes the support box and an area between the first building element and the second building element.

A vibration absorption device for acoustic insulation for a building structure comprises an absorbent cushion and a vibration isolation cushion. The building structure is selected from a ceiling structure, a floor structure and a partitioning structure separating two adjacent building compartments or a building compartment and the external environment. The absorbent cushion comprises sound absorbing material and the vibration isolation cushion comprising vibration isolation material. The vibration isolation cushion overlies and is laminated to the absorbent cushion. The vibration isolation cushion is rigid relative to the absorbent cushion. The absorbent cushion is supple relative to the vibration isolation cushion. The vibration absorption device is mountable to the building structure, to isolate vibrations and to provide acoustic insulation between the two separated and adjacent building compartments.

A clip insulation for a furring channel clip, the clip insulation having a substantially planar bed portion having two opposed ends, the bed portion adapted to at least cover a portion of an outer surface of the clip, a plurality of projections extending from the bed portion, and two opposed skirt portions, each skirt portion extending from an end of the bed portion, each skirt portion adapted to attach to an end of the clip.

An acoustic mount is described for damping vibrations between a primary structure of a building and a secondary structure of a building and which has a vibration damper interposed in use between the primary and secondary structures. The vibration damper is resiliently compressible in the axial direction and has at least one resiliently compressible damper element which is elongated in the axial direction so that the axial length of the damper element is greater than half of a transverse width thereof. The damper element reduces in cross sectional area in the axial direction; has a convex outer surface in planes containing the axial direction; and possesses non-linear axial deflection or compression characteristics under a range of static loading conditions enabling effective vibration damping or vibration isolation for a substantial range of loadings of the acoustic mount in use. Damper elements have a continuous convexity of outer surface extending to a tip and the continuous convex outer surface in a plane containing the axial direction has a curved shape defined by a quadratic equation, including segments of ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas.
