Absorption coefficients can be misleading in that sense because a very thin sheet of fabric may have an nrc of 1 0 while a plush velvet curtain may also have an nrc of 1 0.
Sound absorption coefficient of sheet metal.
Thus for the scope of predicting the exterior sound field for auralization the absorption coef ficient and the scattering coefficient for random incidence are important input data used in room acoustics simulation software.
Undamped metal deck i believe the differences would be marginal save for a higher coefficient measured for the presumably low frequency band where the metal is providing resonant absorption.
The sound absorption coefficient is the ratio of absorbed sound intensity in an actual material to the incident sound intensity and can be expressed as.
I i incident sound intensity w m 2.
Acoustics room acoustics and acoustic properties decibel a b and c noise rating nr curves sound transmission sound pressure sound intensity and sound attenuation.
I a sound intensity absorbed w m 2.

In my experience the actual absorption provided by a metal roof deck is low but it does provide.
Then the measures of transmission loss calculated as an overall value for applied absorbent material and bare sheet metal.

Take a look at the jcw soundproofing products and options available.
Both of these materials reflect approximately 0 of the incoming sound energy.
Random and normal sound absorption coefficient values were predicted.
Absorption coefficients of common building materials and finishes.
Noise and attenuation noise is usually defined as unwanted sound noise noise generation silencers and attenuation in hvac systems.
Anyway this is all speculative.

In many cases of sound prediction however the absorbed or transmitted energy is a sufficient quantity.
