So, I ordered, (18) 2' x 4' x 4" pieces of Rockboard to go in this room:
The way I'm thinking I'll do it now is to do the superchunk thing in the four main wall-wall corners, which will take up 12 pieces, and have 6 traps left over for wall-ceiling corners (I might save one for a portable vocal booth type thing, too).
Problem is, two of the corners won't fit the 'chunks' if they're made in the usual isosceles right triangle size (2' x 2' cut into 4 pieces with two 17" sides and one 24" side). This is because one of the 17" sides doesn't fit in the corner by the front door in the pic. The space between the door frame and the wall is just over a foot.
What I was thinking I could do is take a 1' x 2' piece and cut it corner to corner to make a two pieces with one 12" side, one 24" side, and one 26" side. Then I could put the 12" side between the door and the wall and put the 26" side on the wall where there is plenty of space. The amount exposed is still the same, the minimum depth from insulation to corner is the same (12"), and the amount of material used is the same. It just has to be used in pairs (which I was doing anyway).
My only questions are:
Does this affect the effectiveness of the 'chunks'?
If so, would I still be better off than using a standard 4" trap at an uneven angle?
Thanks,
