What to do with the noisy steel roof?

The metal sheet roof is a popular roofing material at the moment with a lot of qualifications in light-weighted, durable, easy installation, and less joint to prevent from the leakage. Though, when it is raining, it is quite noisy.

The metal sheet roof is a popular roofing material at the moment with a lot of qualifications in light-weighted, durable, easy installation, and less joint to prevent from the leakage. Though, when it is raining, it is quite noisy. Usually, when the rain drops on the thin steel sheet, it will make the vibration on the sheet causing noisy. There are many ways to reducing and absorb the loud noise.

The metal sheet roof will have the noise problem. When the rain drops on the thin steel sheet, it will make the vibration on the sheet causing noisy. There are many ways to reducing and absorb the loud noise.

The ways to reduce noise:

1. Reducing noise from an impact by using sound absorption material at the roof with various insulation sheets such as fiberglass, Rockwool, EPS Foam, PE insulation etc. The qualification will vary by the density, thickness, and application. It is sold as separate insulation and sandwich panel sheet from the factory

2. Reducing noise from the roof by using ceiling such as gypsum board, bagasse sheet etc, or also installing the insulation in the ceiling

3. Designing the proper building floor plan to prevent the noise from disturbing working area by separating the noisy area from the silence area or blocking these 2 areas with another room

Moreover, it must consider about the reverberant noise in the building by using the reverberation absorption material to block the sound-transmission and must control the sound to spread to the direction appropriately for the usage.

Conclusion

There is no perfectly way to reduce the noise from the metal sheet roof. The rain noise from the roof can still get through, so it must be applied by the suitable and budgeting methods.
