Backfilling -refill (an excavated hole) with the material dug out of it.

Scaffolding - a temporary structure on the outside of a building, made usually of wooden planks and metal
poles, used by workers while building, repairing, or cleaning the building.

Aggregates - Construction aggregate, or simply "aggregate", is a broad category of coarse to medium

grained particulate material used in construction, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag, recycled
concrete and geosynthetic aggregates. Aggregates are the most mined materials in the world.

Footing- the basis on which something is established or operates.

Column- A column or pillar in architecture and structural engineering is a structural element that transmits,
through compression, the weight of the structure above to other structural elements below. In other
words, a column is a compression member.

Beam- A beam is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied laterally to the beam's axis.

Slab- a large, thick, flat piece of stone, concrete, or wood, typically rectangular.

PVC- Polyvinyl chloride is the world's third-most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer, after
polyethylene and polypropylene.

Girder- A girder is a support beam used in construction. It is the main horizontal support of a structure
which supports smaller beams

Truss-a framework, typically consisting of rafters, posts, and struts, supporting a roof, bridge, or other
structure

Rafter- A rafter is one of a series of sloped structural members that extend from the ridge or hip to the
wall plate, down slope perimeter or eave, and that are designed to support the roof deck and its
associated loads.

Purlin- a horizontal beam along the length of a roof, resting on a main rafter and supporting the common
rafters or boards.

In this video from the DIY Perks YouTube channel, Matt Perks tests the sound absorption
quality of cheap, easy-to-find materials. Perks tested thin, flat sponge, egg holder sponge, two
layers of egg holder sponge, a seat cushion, and a folded towel with a spread of 17khz, 13khz,
10khz, 7khz, and 5khz frequencies. All in all, Perks found that a folded towel, either four layers
thick or twelve layers thick, absorbed the most of all frequencies. Best of all, you can buy a
bunch of old towels at thrift stores for only a few bucks. If you’re looking to build your own
custom sound absorption panels, Perks shows you how in the second half of the video above.
