A Morton Buildings' Exclusive

The major problem with most interior finishes is excessive sound reverberation. For example, when you choose a less absorbent finishing material like concrete or steel, noise becomes intensified and speech tends to be more unintelligible. That, however, is not the case with Morton Buildings' Hi-Rib acoustical steel.

Morton Buildings offers customers the choice of finishing the interiors of their structures with one of the most efficient sound insulation systems in the construction industry. The Hi-Rib acoustical steel allows sound waves to pass through to sound absorbent materials in the wall and ceiling cavities. This system provides a quieter, more controlled environment.

You can compare Morton Buildings' Hi-Rib acoustical steel's sound absorbency with other materials in the chart. The sound absorbing qualities of particular surfaces are measured using Noise Reduction Coefficients (NRC). Theoretically, the NRC can vary from 0 (no sound absorption) to 1.0 (all incident sound is absorbed). Practically speaking, all materials lie between these two extremes.
