Wales) stipulates sound insulation (acoustic testing) criteria
for both new builds and building conversions. The regulations

separating purpose), must meet both airborne (speech, television
sound, etc.) and impact (foot step noise, etc from floors)
sound insulation standards.

that can be used to comply with Sound Insulation requirements
for:
