Acoustic comfort is a critical yet often overlooked aspect of high-performing buildings. This course equips architects and designers with the knowledge to design and specify interior wall and ceiling assemblies that deliver effective sound control, occupant comfort, and environmental performance. Participants will examine how fiberglass, mineral wool, and recycled denim batt insulation materials influence STC and NRC ratings, explore how to integrate these materials into resilient wall and ceiling assemblies, and learn how to balance cost, constructability, and sustainability goals. The session concludes with practical installation guidance and an introduction to modeling tools that help validate design performance in real-world applications.

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

• Understand Acoustic Fundamentals Relevant to Building Envelopes
• Identify Key Metrics for Acoustic Insulation Performance
• Compare the Acoustic Properties of Batt Insulation Materials
• Specify the Right Insulation for Acoustically Sensitive Spaces
• Design Sound-Resilient Assemblies Using Batt Insulation
• Recognize the Sustainability and Health Factors of Each Material

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