Jack-Up Reinforced Concrete Floating Floor and Acoustic Hangers for Yellowmoon Studios, Belfast
Yellowmoon Studios – Belfast
Mason UK were happy to work again with Level Acoustic Design who specified Mason jack up floating floors and both rubber and spring ceiling hangers for 3 studios at the new Yellowmoon Editing Studio facility in Belfast.
Our own in house engineers designed the floating floors selecting jacks to meet the acoustic performance and design loads identified by Level Acoustic Design. We worked with local contractor A Cairnduff & Sons who provided standard building materials and labour and installed the floating floors under the supervision of our engineers who were on site to ensure the installation was undertaken correctly.
One of the studios was a Foley Studio, which included a series of non-isolated Foley Pits cut into the floating floor and are used to attain clear noise effects when editing sound tracks on recordings.

The Mason FSN Jack-Up acoustic floor system can be used as the crucial part of achieving box in box construction for studios or rooms requiring a high level of acoustic separation or simply providing acoustic or impact isolation from one area to another.
Floating floors systems are used for many purposes, predominantly to prevent noise passing through the floor but also to isolate against vibration and impact.
Whether your studio is for film, television, radio or music production; it is crucial that it is totally free from external noise. Any slight sound or disruption of the recording process can reduce the quality of, or even ruin, the end product.
