A482R - RESILMOUNT BCD North America : Sound Isolation Wall Braces

For providing a structural tie between two walls and supporting horizontal loads, the Resilmount A482R isolated wall brace is unsurpassed in performance, amenity, and value. Commonly used in cinemas, theatres, and lecture halls to decouple internal steel or wood walls from the concrete structure.  These acoustic mounts are engineered to reduce the transmission of structure-borne noise and vibration, while providing economic benefits by minimizing the wall framing requirements.  The acoustic performance of these isolation mounts has been laboratory tested, and the unique design overcomes many of the shortcomings of traditional acoustic wall ties.

• Isolates tall internal walls from the building structure.
• Engineered thermoplastic rubber outperforms standard rubber because of its sound absorbing characteristics.
• Easy installation by screw fixing to stud web.
• No need for installer to adjust or engage with compression bolt.
• Minimizes the possibility of shorting to the structure.
• Supplied as pre-compressed assembly with 3/16" deflection.
• Allows reduced stud size/spacing which reduces build cost.
• Can be installed after the wall framing is built.
• Engineered to prevent wall buckling during earthquakes.
• Laboratory tested to ISO 10140-2

• Requirements for isolated wall braces vary from wall to wall, depending on a number of variables. For brace spacing and centers, please seek design advice from Studco's engineering consultants.
• Use oversize washer under screw head when using self-tapping screws to metal structure.
• Maximum dynamic loading: FLAT = 90 lbs., FLONG = 135 lbs.
