Kalmar Construction

Build Anatomy worked collaboratively with the constructor to offer a value engineered solution with the moisture and fire resilient properties of Maglok incorporated to provide an acoustically sound, robust flooring solution that could be easily overlaid with vinyl and carpet tiles.

Build Anatomy also provided a range of Acoustic isolation pads of various sizes and heights to bring the Offsite Manufactured bathroom pods up to the finished floor level of the acoustic floor.

Acoustic Bathroom Pod Pads

Constraint: While there are numerous finished floor levels being specified in raised acoustic floors, designers have been left to formulate customised solutions to raise shower bases for each project. These technically solved the problem but weren’t always cost-effective or practical to build.

Response: Build Anatomy developed a proprietary system that can be easily customized to be flush with various floor levels.

SoundDown™ for Mass Timber

  • low profile and raised solutions to allow space for services
  • Pre-assembled components to speed up on-site construction
  • Supply only and supply & install available

SoundDown™ Duo

Restraint: Lightweight construction has been great in single dwelling units as a cost effective solution, but hearing your kids crashing around upstairs is not the same as hearing the neighbours, especially when you can't just tell them to keep it down.

Response: Build Anatomy developed 2 acoustic floors for lightweight construction depending on performance requirements and floor finishing preferences. SoundDown Duo, a raised floor with granular insulation and SoundDown Solo, a low profile, simple solution for cost driven construction.

DoundDown™ PAB

SoundDown™ Pre-Assembled Battens (PAB) simplify the install of raised acoustic floors. It’s efficient, high-performing and cost-effective. The system is versatile with a variety of toppings available, customisable heights and supply & install options available.
