Knightsbridge Prestige:
New Era Acoustic Silent Ply System
The brief
For this prestigious Knightsbridge development, the New Era Acoustic cradle system was specified to provide a lightweight, moisture free sub-floor system with excellent acoustic isolation.
Scope of Work
The installation featured a floor build-up with a height ranging from 125–165 mm, achieved using 48 mm battens spaced at 400 mm centres, onto which 22 mm tongue-and-groove plywood was glued and screwed. This design created a perfectly acoustically isolated sub-floor to conform to Document E for impact sound isolation.
