Äänensummutusta, known in English as soundproofing or acoustic insulation, refers to the process or materials used to reduce or eliminate the transmission of sound. This is achieved by either absorbing sound energy, reflecting it, or blocking its passage. The primary goal is to create quieter environments, whether to prevent noise from entering a space or to contain noise within it.
Various materials and techniques are employed for äänensummutusta. Common soundproofing materials include dense substances like concrete,
The effectiveness of äänensummutusta is measured by metrics like Sound Transmission Class (STC) for blocking sound
