Designing for Room Acoustics: Principles and Myths

Most designers are aware that many room types require acoustic treatment. Some are aware of acoustic terms such as NRC. This presentation will take that knowledge to the next level. Learn about the strengths and weaknesses of room acoustics design standards with this overview of theory and design methodology. A special emphasis is placed on performance-oriented designs. Strategies for different project types will be presented.

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

  • Acquire knowledge of room acoustics principles, including frequency, wavelength, and terminology.
  • Identify different room acoustics design tactics, by understanding the roles of absorption, reflection, and diffusion.
  • Analyze and interpret product tests and advertisement claims.
  • Discover the difference between testing results and actual performance.
  • Identify how some industry standards may not be helpful for proper room acoustics design.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered via webinar or face-to-face presentation. Available sessions shown below.
