Experimental investigation about the influence of the use of glue in joints in lightweight structures.
Lightweight timber structures have many advantages, but high-demand acoustic quality is hard to achieve due to the relatively poor insulation through the junctions, especially in the low frequency range (20 Hz-200 Hz) where the weight (mass per unit of area) of a construction is an important parameter for the air-borne insulation properties. Increasing the mass would improve the insulation but thi
