AcousticalExpectations
Luxury? MarketRate? EntryLevel?
Entry Level HousingSTC 50 / IIC 50 (STC /IIC 48)*
Market Rate HousingSTC 55 / IIC 55 (STC/IIC 52)*
Luxury Rate HousingSTC 60+ / IIC 60+ (STC/IIC 55)*
IIC 60+ very hard to achieve with wood or tile surfaces
* Actual 1962 values – adjust when IBC set “50” as minimum
