- Abstract
- The acoustical performance of a single family attached steel-frame modular housing system was tested on an Operation Breakthrough prototype site. Test results are given concerning the noise isolation of interdwelling walls, the noise isolation of intradwelling walls and floor-ceiling assemblies.
