Abstract
Abstract An impact-cushioning sheet comprises an air enclosed film base having concave portions or a perforated base material composed of fiberboard and/or foamed body and a crosslinked viscoelastic body filled in the concave portions or holes and having specified properties. A direct-applying restraint type floor damping structure is manufactured by adhering a floor component part to at least one surface of the impact-cushioning sheet.
