Tables 1 and 2 of MMAH Supplementary Standard SB-3, “Fire and Sound Resistance Tables” present separating assemblies that comply with Subsection 9.11. However, selecting an appropriate separating assembly is only one part of the solution for reducing airborne sound transmission between adjoining spaces. To fully address the sound performance of the whole system, flanking assemblies must be connected to the separating assembly in accordance with Article 9.11.1.4.
