Standard at construction

Before NBE-CA — The building predates Spain’s first general acoustic standard, so separating walls and floors were not designed under a common national sound-insulation framework.

Expected range from Construction Profile chronology and regulation period; actual wall, floor and building-services performance has not been measured.
