ABSTRACT:
A buckle-resistant resilient runner having a thickness of from 0.017 to 0.020 inch is interposed between the framework and the wall-board of a partition having a sound transmission coefficient of 53. A scalloped web connects the wallboard support flange and the flange of the runner which is fastened to the framework. The distance between the support flange and a notch in the scalloped web is equal to or greater than the width of a stop flange on the opposite edge of the support flange. This design makes the runner much more resistant to buckling than a prior art runner made from thicker sheet metal.
