This paper demonstrates how new products such as QuietRock make building high quality condos a reality by making it easy for builders and their subcontractors to meet the new expectations reliably and cost effectively.
This installed cost comparison for common demising/party wall assemblies demonstrates how using QuietRock allows for more additional sellable floor space, improved performance and field reliability, and a lower cost than traditional methods.
