One of our Interior Designers asked about an installation on a previous project and was told the product was from Johns Mansfield, and the Vendor was SoundTech. There's not a lot of information of the website, and I haven't contacted them yet; wanted to learn if any of you have information first. Thanks, Justice League of Specifiers.

If you have an acoustical engineer on the project, they can provide the appropriate guidance.

I know that if it's a vital part of the project, an acoustical engineer or acoustician would definitely be used. This is simply an inquiry at this point. George A.

(you need to be as old as a specifier to get that reference) George A.

Not sure if there is an ASTM Standard for that test tho! Wrapping some sweaters around the laminated posters might help too!! (and just to clarify, I'm not THAT old, but I still understand the reference :P) Ride it like you stole it!!!
