very useful. for my purposes, since most recording studio isolation is mass, i have my spreadsheet to calculate the walls, floor, and ceiling structure. this includes framing, sheath layers, insulation, and for my estimation electrical, plumbing, ducts, windows, doors, and absorption assemblies. i think the former layers in the floor, wall and perhaps truss would also be helpful (i use trusses to suspend interior ceilings on load bearing walls when i have long spans where a simple joist won't handle it, like a live room)

Version 2.1.2 - 03.07.2026
