Abstract
The present invention provides an acoustical firewall attenuating assembly. The assembly includes a first frame assembly having a first plate, a second plate and a first plurality of elongate members spaced from one another and extending between the first plate and the second plate. A structure is spaced from the first frame assembly and has an outer surface. A cement wall is positioned between the first frame and the structure and is attached to at least the first frame assembly by a first vibration dampener.
Claims66
An acoustical attenuating assembly comprising:
- an elongate member having a first and a second end;
- an acoustical element spaced from the elongate member;
- an anchor attaching the acoustical element to the elongate member;
- and
- a vibration dampener having a portion between the elongate member and the acoustical element.
An acoustical attenuating firewall assembly comprising:
- a first frame assembly having a first plate, a second plate and a first plurality of elongate members spaced from one another and extending between the first plate and the second plate;
- and
- a cement wall spaced from the first frame and attached to at least a portion of the first frame with a vibration dampener.
An acoustical firewall attenuating assembly comprising:
- a first frame assembly having a first plate, a second plate and a first plurality of elongate members spaced from one another and extending between the first plate and the second plate;
- a structure spaced from the first frame assembly and having an outer surface;
- and
- a cement wall positioned between the first frame and the structure and being attached to at least the first frame assembly by a first vibration dampener.
A method for fabricating an acoustical firewall assembly comprising:
- providing a cement element;
- inserting the cement element between a first frame structure and a second structure;
- and
- attaching the cement element to the first frame structure with a vibration dampener.
An anchor for attaching a structure to a cement wall comprising:
- a body having a first face and a second face, the first face being transverse to the second face, the body fabricated from a material that fails at a temperature in excess of 1000° F.;
- and
- an elastomeric vibration dampener attached to the first face of the body and extending a distance away therefrom.
