Type of article: Article

Summary

Noise carried through piping systems is becoming an increasing challenge for owners, engineers and contractors alike. The reasons are varied, but include changing design requirements that place mechanical rooms on intermediate and top-floor building levels coupled with a greater use of lightweight construction materials that tend to vibrate more than traditional heavy materials. In order to attenuate noise and vibration, designers often fall back on traditional attenuation methods for HVAC systems, as well as
industrial utility piping.
