<br />Limitations 
<br />Actual achieved STC and IIC ratings are determined by the quality of construction and attention to details in 
<br />the installation of assemblies. Please be advised that this endorsement is strictly contingent upon observance 
<br />of proper installation procedures. It is imperative that attention be paid to details such as the proper installation 
<br />of resilient channels and/or clips and the isolation of the floor/ceiling assembly from the wall (using a 
<br />perimeter isolation strip) to prevent vibration through the structure. Additionally, all cracks or gaps must be 
<br />sealed with an acoustical sealant,such as the OSI SC175 or Pecora sealants see Appendix G . With these 
<br />( PP ) 
<br />conditions met and the recommendations listed above, the assemblies detailed above should meet minimum 
<br />building code standards for controlling sound and impact transmission. 
<br />The following additional considerations should also be taken into account: 
<br />• The use of recessed lighting in this type of construction is strongly discouraged, as it compromises the 
<br />STC and IIC of the floor/ceiling assembly; however, if recessed lighting must be used, a sealed and 
<br />vibration -isolated box may be constructed around the light fixture using two layers of gypsum board 
<br />to maintain the sound and impact ratings of the assembly as much as feasible. 
<br />• Placing outlet boxes back-to-back in the same stud cavity should be avoided. A sound deadening fire - 
<br />stop putty pad system should be installed around the back of all outlet boxes in the common wall to 
<br />provide additional acoustical privacy. Pads are sized to fit a typical 1-1/2-inch-deep 4S box with no 
<br />cutting or piercing required. The pads have tested and proven fire resistance and sound -deadening 
<br />acoustical properties. 
<br />• Regardless of the type of construction, all manufacturer instructions for the selected acoustical 
<br />underlayment must be followed closely to ensure proper installation that will provide the desired 
<br />acoustical performance. 
<br />The above recommendations should be considered as much as possible in the construction of the common 
<br />wall and floor/ceiling assemblies for this project. 
<br />6.0 Conclusion 
<br />The City of Santa Ana Noise Element to the General Plan states that exterior noise levels at common outdoor 
<br />use areas of multi -family residential properties should not exceed 65 CNEL. Calculations show that, with a 
<br />four -foot high sound barrier along the southern barrier of the Building B courtyard in place, exterior noise 
<br />levels at the common outdoor use areas are expected to meet the exterior noise limit of 65 CNEL. Please refer 
<br />to Figure 7 for a graphical representation of the required sound barrier location. 
<br />The City of Santa Ana and the State of California require interior noise levels not exceeding 45 CNEL in 
<br />habitable space. Calculations show that future noise levels on site are expected to exceed 60 CNEL at most 
<br />building facades; therefore, interior noise levels may exceed 45 CNEL within units without appropriate design 
<br />features in place. Calculations show that with typical exterior wall assemblies, exterior glazing with an STC 
<br />rating of 28, and mechanical ventilation in all units, all interior residential space is expected to comply with City 
<br />of Santa Ana and State of California noise requirements. Additionally, with proposed exterior wall construction 
<br />and standard commercial glazing in place, exterior noise levels in non-residential spaces are expected to meet 
<br />the noise limits of the City of San Diego Noise Element to the General Plan.

<br />Common wall and floor/ceiling assemblies recommended herein are expected to meet the minimum required 
<br />ratings dictated by the State of California Building Code Section 1206 for Sound Transmission Class (STC) and 
<br />Impact Insulation Class (IIC). These assemblies should be incorporated into project plans prior to building 
<br />permit submittal. 
<br />7.0 Certification 
<br />All recommendations for noise control are based on the best information available at the time our consulting 
<br />services are provided. However, as there are many factors involved in sound and impact transmission, and 
<br />Eilar Associates has no control over the construction, workmanship, or materials, Eilar Associates is specifically 
<br />not liable for final results of any recommendations or implementation of the recommendations. 
<br />The findings and recommendations of this acoustical analysis report are based on the information available and 
<br />are a true and factual analysis of the potential acoustical issues associated with the 4th and Mortimer project, to 
<br />be located at the northeast and northwest corners of 4th Street and Mortimer Street in the City of Santa Ana,

<br />Concrete Shear Wall 
<br />In some locations where residential units are located adjacent to one another or common space, the following 
<br />assembly is proposed: 
<br />• 8-inch (minimum) thickness concrete 
<br />A laboratorySTC test of this assembly was conducted b Riverbank Acoustical Laboratories (Catalog section 
<br />Y Y ( g 
<br />number 2.3.2.1.1.2) and achieved an STC rating of 58, which meets the California Building Code requirement 
<br />for a minimum STC rating of 50. 
<br />Floor/Ceiling Assemblies 
<br />Concrete Slab Floor/Ceiling Assembly (17/AD 21) 
<br />The concrete slab floor/ceiling assembly is proposed to be constructed as follows: 
<br />• Carpet and pad OR hard surface finish flooring 
<br />• 8-inch minimum thickness concrete slab 
<br />According to Catalog section number 2.3.2.1.1.2, the bare concrete assembly is expected to have an STC rating 
<br />of 58. According to Catalog section number 2.3.1.1.2.1, the IIC rating of a five inch thick concrete slab with a 
<br />floor covering of carpet and pad is IIC 70. Therefore, with a floor covering of carpet and pad, the anticipated 
<br />IIC rating of the above assembly is expected to be greater than 70; however, in areas with hard surface flooring, 
<br />an acoustical underlayment and/or dropped ceiling is required. As the STC rating of the bare slab assembly 
<br />meets the California Building Code minimum, neither a floor covering, acoustical underlayment, nor a dropped 
<br />ceiling is required at areas over nonresidential space (such as the retail or restaurant spaces). However, in areas 
<br />over residential space, the concrete slab floor/ceiling assembly should be improved using one of the following 
<br />assemblies: 
<br />Option 1: Improved Concrete Slab Floor/Ceiling Assembly avith Dropped Ceiling 
<br />• Hard surface finish flooring 
<br />• Single layer of 2 mm thick acoustical underlayment, such as GenieMat RST02, Ecore 
<br />QTscu 4002, or equivalent (not required over nonresidential space or where carpet and 
<br />pad are installed) 
<br />• 8-inch minimum thickness concrete slab 
<br />• Single layer of 5/8-inch thick gypsum board suspended from the underside of the slab 
<br />A similar assembly was tested by Intertek with engineered wood flooring. The tested assembly 
<br />(Intertek Test No. F1751.07-113-11-RO) achieved an IIC rating of 67. The differences between the 
<br />tested and proposed assemblies are that the tested assembly incorporates a 6-inch-thick concrete slab, 
<br />while the proposed assembly incorporates an 8-inch-thick concrete slab, and the tested assembly 
<br />incorporates a 5 mm thick GenieMat RST05 (equivalent to Ecore QTscu4005) underlayment, while 
<br />the proposed assembly incorporates a 2 min thick GenieMat RST02 (equivalent to Ecore QTscu4002) 
<br />underlayment. The increased slab thickness is expected to result in an increase of approximately 2 to 
<br />4 IIC points, while the use of a thinner underlayment is expected to result in a decrease of 
<br />approximately 1 to 2 IIC points. For this reason, the anticipated IIC rating of the improved concrete 
<br />floor/ceiling assembly would be at least IIC 67. The concrete floor -ceiling assembly as detailed above 
<br />is expected to meet the minimum building code requirements with any hard surface floor covering 
<br />with this 2 min thick acoustical underlayment in place.

<br />Option 2: Improved Concrete Slab Floor/Ceiling Assembly wthoutDropped Ceikng 
<br />• Hard surface finish flooring 
<br />• Single layer of 5 mm thick acoustical underlayment, such as GenieMat RST05, Ecore 
<br />QTscu 4005, or equivalent (not required over nonresidential space or where carpet and 
<br />pad are installed) 
<br />• 8-inch minimum thickness concrete slab 
<br />This assembly was tested by NGC Testing Services with ceramic tile flooring. The tested assembly 
<br />(NGC Report No. 7013106) achieved an IIC rating of 50. The concrete floor -ceiling assembly as 
<br />detailed above is expected to meet the minimum building code requirements with any hard surface 
<br />floor covering with this 5 mm thick acoustical underlayment in place. 
<br />Wood -Framed One Hour Floor/CeikngAssembly (1/AD-21) 
<br />The wood -framed floor/ceiling assembly between stacked units should be constructed as follows: 
<br />• Carpet and pad OR hard surface finish flooring 
<br />• 1-inch-thick gypsum concrete topping 
<br />• Single layer of Acousti-Mat 1/4 floor underlayment (not required in carpeted areas) 
<br />• Single layer plywood 
<br />• 2-inch by 10-inch dimensional wood joists 
<br />• Fiberglass batt insulation in cavity 
<br />• Single layer of 5/8-inch-thick Type X gypsum board, attached to the joists using single -leg resilient 
<br />channels 
<br />A laboratory STC test was conducted by Intertek (report number I0112.20-113-11-RO) for this assembly. The 
<br />tested assembly achieved an STC rating of 57, which exceeds the minimum required rating of STC 50 required 
<br />by the California Building Code. This rating applies to the assembly regardless of floor finish. 
<br />A laboratory IIC test of a similar assembly with a floor covering of carpet and pad was conducted by Geiger 
<br />and Hamme (Catalog section number 2.1.4.2.1.5) and achieved an IIC rating of 79. The laboratory -tested 
<br />assembly differs from the proposed assembly in that the tested assembly incorporated a slightly thicker layer of 
<br />lightweight concrete; however, the slight decrease in thickness of gypsum concrete is not expected to 
<br />significantly affect the IIC rating of the assembly. Therefore, the IIC rating of the proposed assembly with 
<br />carpet flooring is expected to exceed the minimum required rating of IIC 50 required by the California Building 
<br />Code. Additionally, it should be noted that the tested assembly did not include the additional benefit of the 
<br />Acousti-Mat underlayment. For this reason, the Acousti-Mat 1 /4 underlayment is not required in carpeted 
<br />areas. Although not required beneath areas with a floor covering carpet and pad, it is the recommendation of 
<br />the undersigned that the Maxxon Acousti-Mat 1 /4 underlayment be incorporated in all areas, to better ensure 
<br />that future notential alterations to floor coverings (such as renlacine cametinLr with hard surface floorhw) will 
<br />still meet California Building Code impact noise rating requirements. 
<br />The above wood floor/ceiling assembly was tested for impact sound transmission at Intertek Acoustical 
<br />Laboratories with floor coverings of either sheet vinyl, vinyl plank, ceramic tile, or engineered hardwood 
<br />flooring (report numbers I0112.20-113-11-RO, I0112.19-113-11-RO, I0112.24-113-11-RO, and I0112.21-113-11- 
<br />R0, respectively). The tested assembly achieved an IIC rating of 51 with a sheet vinyl floor covering, 51 with a 
<br />vinyl plank floor covering, 52 with a ceramic tile floor covering, and 51 with an engineered hardwood floor 
<br />covering. These ratings meet the standards of the California Building Code.
