I am planning a new build and want to achieve very good impact sound insulation between the ground floor and the upper floor, as separate apartments are planned. I have seen the following recommendations:
Do you have any tips on how to improve this? The plan is usually to have a wooden plank floor on top (bathroom tiled) and a concrete slab below.
I am planning a new build and want to achieve very good impact sound insulation between the ground floor and the upper floor, as separate apartments are planned. I have seen the following recommendations:
- Decouple the screed from the side walls using edge insulation strips
- Use impact sound insulation under the underfloor heating, for example, a 30mm (1.2 inch) soft fiberboard
- Below that, install thermal insulation with space for installations (50mm (2 inches))
Do you have any tips on how to improve this? The plan is usually to have a wooden plank floor on top (bathroom tiled) and a concrete slab below.
When it comes to soil-related topics, I generally find it wise to involve @KlaRa in the discussion, just in case.

If there are special requirements, for example particularly good sound insulation – of course. The general contractor usually just installs average EPS insulation and that's it.
I reversed the thicknesses in my case. So, 30mm (1.2 inches) thermal insulation and 50mm (2 inches) sound insulation. Actually, it’s supposed to go from soft to hard, but I didn’t do that either. Sound barely gets through to me, but I haven't moved in yet.
