Abstract
Prefabricated element arranged on a single wall of a room for forming a double sound insulating and sound absorbing wall. The prefabricated element provides efficient sound insulation of the room and a total sound absorption of sound waves whose frequency is centered at one of the natural frequencies of the room. The element comprises a frame supporting a flexible panel by means of elastic sealing means, the flexible panel being maintained at a predetermined distance from the single wall due to the thickness of said frame whereby the resonant frequency of the double wall becomes equal to a natural resonant frequency of the room corresponding to sound waves propagating perpendicularly to the single wall. In addition, the prefabricated element may also comprise an additional element placed in the middle of the panel which permits equalization of the natural resonant frequency of the assembly comprising the flexible panel and the additional element to the low natural frequency of the room. This occurs when the frame and the panel of the element are standardized to match one of the low natural frequencies of the room.
