ROOM ACOUSTIC MODELLING

Room acoustic modelling A building's internal acoustics are key to its overall acoustic properties and are determined by its shape and volume, the location and sound power of each noise source (level, direction, etc), and the nature, quantity and positioning of absorbing materials on its walls. Software tools for simulating internal acoustics are primarily aimed [...]

REVERBERATION TIME

Reverberation time The acoustic characteristics of a building are determined by its shape and internal volume and by the nature, quantity and positioning of absorbing materials on its walls. A building's reverberation time is an essential element in establishing its internal acoustic quality. For site managers and architects, the reverberation time is an essential criterion. [...]

SOUND INSULATION

Sound insulation Sound insulation is defined as the reduction of noise transfer between two buildings or between a building and its surroundings. Insufficient insulation may lead to conflict between neighbours and can cause health problems such as stress. Architects, site managers, design offices and inspection departments use optimised construction methods to comply with the relevant [...]
