Our new house (built in 2011) was constructed with thermal insulation bricks. Inside and outside, it was plastered with a breathable plaster. We now have a very good indoor climate and good thermal insulation, but unfortunately we have to be horrified to find that our exterior walls hardly dampen external noise. Especially the gable walls, which stand perpendicular to the street, seem to catch the external noise and then amplify it like a resonance body. If you press your ear against such an exterior wall when a car passes by, it feels as if the car is DRIVING INSIDE the wall. We have contacted the manufacturer of the bricks about this problem. Such a soundproofing issue is not known there so far. Has anyone had similar experiences with thermal insulation bricks? What have you done to improve the sound insulation afterwards? We would be very grateful for tips.
