Improving sound insulation by the use of cavity walls can be negated by careless detailing. This Digest covers materials for cavity party walls, wall ties, inserting a 'sound-proof course' at the bottom of the wall, absorbent quilts, the arrangement of first floor joists, and recommended details for chimney breasts and flues in cavity party walls and for windows and doors in cavity external walls.
