Owens Corning 703

I am using this material to build out a music room in the basement - I have glued/tacked 1 inch sheets to my open ceiling between floor joists. My designer has suggested covering the ceiling with cloth to use the whole ceiling area as diffusion.

My question is will this keep fiberglass from floating around since there will be approx 5 inch gap between the fiberglass and cloth? I know most applications for bass traps for example, involve adhesion of the cloth to the fiberglass board...thanks.

Some trap builders use a sheet of plastic or fine woven cloth over the fiberglass. That does affect the absorbancy to some degree but not sure how much. Then, there's the fire rating...

Is there a health concern? Didn't use to be about asbestos either. Now there are rising concerns about silica (cement). Maybe, breathing air causes cancer.
