A way to do this for the sketched roof construction is to continue the wall segment into the roof cavity in order to close it off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course this is not a \u2018one size fits all\u2019 solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/aerenlund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/flanking_issue_2.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-856 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By closing off the roof cavity, it can be an effective way to minimize flanking sound transmission in lightweight constructions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Preventing Flanking Sound Transmission through lightweight constructions.
