UNLOCK VALUE IN YOUR PARTITIONS WITH RAS

Available in two sizes, the Resilient Acoustic Stud (RAS) range is a game-changing innovation for party wall and external corridor wall partitions. It is a simple C-stud which has an inbuilt acoustic material preventing airborne and impact sound from passing through dividing walls.

RAS 90 can deliver the acoustic requirements of Approved Document E, whilst reducing the partition width by 50 mm, releasing significant development value for clients.

INSTALLATION PHASE

Space at the new hotel is constrained by its central London site and a mansard roof design, intended to complement the building's historic surroundings. Making the most of the internal floor space is therefore vital.

1m²
RAS was chosen for its space-saving properties. 50mm thinner than standard partition systems, it has helped Galliard to gain one square metre per room.

58 R_wdB insulation
RAS combined with double layered dB board and glass mineral wool insulation provided 58 RwdB-6 Ctr airborne sound insulation.

"Our team found RAS over one third faster to install than standard systems. It’s a clever solution, giving clients a fire and acoustic warranted system but with maximum space”"
