The subject application relates generally to vibration and noise control and in particular, to a sound control underlayment and a floor construction incorporating the same. 30, 2016 entitled “Sound Control Underlayment and Floor Construction Incorporating the Same” to Downey et al., the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. This application claims the benefit of U.S. A floor construction comprising: a subfloor having an upper unfinished floor surface a floor covering having an upper finished floor surface and the sound control underlayment of claim 19 interposed between the subfloor and the floor covering. The sound control underlayment of claim 19, wherein an adhesive layer is on opposed major surfaces of the resilient layer.Ģ6. The sound control underlayment of claim 19, having an average dynamic stiffness in the range of 10 MN/m 3 to 200 MN/m 3.Ģ5. The sound control underlayment of claim 19, having a thickness in the range of 1 mm to 25 mm.Ģ4. The sound control underlayment of claim 19, wherein the adhesive layer is a pressure sensitive adhesive layer.Ģ3. The sound control underlayment of claim 20, wherein the rubber material comprises recycled rubber content.Ģ2. The sound control underlayment of claim 19, wherein the resilient layer is formed of rubber material.Ģ1. A sound control underlayment having opposed major unfinished floor and floor covering contact surfaces for disposition between an unfinished floor surface and a floor covering, the sound control underlayment comprising a resilient layer and an adhesive layer on at least one major surface of said resilient layer.Ģ0.

The floor construction of claim 8, wherein the sound control underlayment has an average dynamic stiffness in the range of 10 MN/m 3 to 200 M N/m 3.ġ9.
