| Buses and railway coaches Inadequate transmission loss of the floor is often the prime cause of a poor sound insulation in a bus or railway coach. Floors are frequently only of single thickness and made from plywood to an overall thickness of 20 - 30 mm. Such materials are relatively low in weight (650 - 750 Kg/m3) and very stiff, resulting in a low coincidence frequency, low transmission loss and high radiation of structure borne sound. |

| In order to improve the acoustic properties, a thin layer
of Damping glue DG-A2 or Viscoelastic
sheet VS sandwiched between two layers of plywood can be used to improve the acoustic
performance comparable with the characteristics of the heavy and expensive conventional
solutions. Vehicle bodies Vehicle body components for trucks, coaches, vans and cars, pressed or drawn in Swedac PVP sheet metal, offer better damping and less transmission of noise from other components. By introducing Damping sheet DS or Damping compound DC-P 500 in floor and panels that are the predominant source of noise it is possible to save space, weight and money.
