When designing noise control measures for a building, it is critical to look beyond the sound transmission class (STC) and impact insulation class (IIC) ratings in order to create an ideal environment that promotes occupant well-being, protects their hearing, and fulfills the project’s needs. This course provides an overview of noise control principles, construction composites, and design methodologies that reduce noise, with an emphasis on performance-oriented designs requiring third-party acoustical consultants.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Identify basic sound principles, including frequency, wavelength, and related terminology, and the preferred parameters relating to user safety and protection from noise.
  • Discuss noise control construction approaches and explain how different composites perform under a variety of noise conditions in order to achieve healthy acoustical settings for occupants.
  • Analyze and interpret noise control tests and advertising claims.
  • Determine the difference between testing results and actual performance and hearing safety.
  • Indicate specific project types requiring third-party acoustical consultants and their role in creating healthy spaces.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
