Acoustic Floor Battens

USES
  • Concrete or timber floors
  • New build and conversion projects
  • Meets new Part E Building Regulations
  • Meets new RSD details
BENEFITS
  • High acoustic performance
  • Very easy to install
  • Services can run underneath
  • Made from recyclable materials
  • Maintenance free

The Ecocheck shallow batten system is designed to reduce sound transmission through a concrete structural sub-floor and consists of a layer of 13mm LRC foam bonded to a softwood batten.

When installed as part of a complete party floor construction it enables a concrete floor to meet the sound transmission standards of ADE 2003 (amended 2004). Should the requirement be for a batten height other than that detailed on this page please contact us for further advice of suitability and availability.

Product Data

– Overall batten size: 1800mm x 45mm x 45mm*
– Resilient layer thickness: 8mm
– Resilient layer: X-link Isopol
* alternative batten depths are available to special order.

Performance

Treated floor meets with the descriptive FFT3, typically within Robust Detail E-FC-2. Using deeper battens (min. 70mm) would conform to FFT1 within E-FC-2 and E-FC-7.

  • 18mm or 22mm chipboard deck
  • Ecocheck shallow battens @ 400mm max. centres
  • min. 250mm in-situ concrete floor slab, 2400kg/m³ min density
  • min 40mm, 80kg/m² screed applied directly to slab
  • Suitable RD approved metal ceiling system
  • Acoustic flanking band reduces the impact vibration leaking via structural walls and assists in reducing airborne and impact sound paths

  • Ecocheck shallow battens @ 400mm max. centres
  • min 40mm, 80kg/m² screed applied directly to slab
  • min. 150mm hollow core concrete plank (300kg/m²)
  • ​Suitable RD approved metal or timber ceiling system
  • Acoustic flanking band reduces the impact vibration leaking via structural walls and assists in reducing airborne and impact sound paths

 


EcoCheck Deep Batten system is designed to reduce sound transmission through timber floors within a timber framed structure.

EcoCheck Deep Batten consists of a batten bonded to 15mm LRAC. When installed as part of a complete party floor construction it enables a timber floor to meet the sound transmission standards of ADE 2003 (amended 2004).

Should the requirement be for a batten height higher than that detailed here please contact us for further technical advice and suitability.

Product Data

– Overall batten size: 1800mm x 45mm x 75mm OA
– Resilient layer thickness: Down to approx. 13mm under normal domestic load
– Resilient layer: 15mm LRAC

Performance

Treated floor meets with the descriptive FFT1, typically within Robust Details E-FT-1 and E-FT-2 and E-FT-3.

  • 18mm (min) T&G chipboard and 19mm plasterboard plank
  • Ecocheck deep battens @ 400mm max. centres perpendicular to the joists
  • min. 60mm, 45kg/m³ mineral wool between battens
  • min. 15mm thick floor decking
  • min. 240mm timber I-joists at max. 400mm centres
  • min. 100mm thick, 45kg/m³ mineral wool between joists
  • min. 24kg/m² double boarded ceiling on resilient bars perpendicular to joists
  • Acoustic flanking band reduces the impact vibration leaking via structural walls and assists in reducing airborne and impact sound paths
