Sound Reduction & Acoustic ratings:

Our sound reduction indices have been established by full testing and certification under ideal laboratory conditions. However, effective performance of our system is wholly reliant upon the specification and construction of the surrounding building structure. For best sound separation results; the environment, ceiling and floor voids and structural interfaces, the operable wall is to be fitted into, must be of a minimum and equal acoustic specification to be able to support the AEG Partitions operable wall acoustic performance.

Structure:

Provision of a structural support is the sole responsibility of others and should be designed to take account of the maximum loadings imposed by the partition and the requirement for the structure to be drilled into. Where fitting to an existing structure an engineer should be employed by others to confirm suitability. The structure above the head track on the linear run and storage area should be clear of all obstructions or services.

System tolerances:
