The walls are thin : measuring sound transmission through different thicknesses of plywood Angkiriwang, Patricia; Peng, Winnie

Abstract

The relationship between frequency of sine waves and sound transmission through plywood was explored. Frequencies in the range of 100 to 1000 Hz were transmitted through birch plywood of three thicknesses. We conclude that the resonant frequency of our setup is centered around 700 Hz.
