Briefly about the acustical design

If we are talking about a new building or a reconstruction the acustical design fields could have a very big variation! Generally it's not easy to give a summary of the field of acoustical planning, because the acoustics as a branch of science has a lot of specialization. If we are talking about the architectural acoustics, we have to deal with the following questions:

1. Room acoustics desing

• Determining the room's capacity
• Determining the room's form and scale details
• Determining the surfaces
• Determining the cover of the surfaces
• Determining the room acustical parameters regarding the room function

2. The sound isolation

• Checking the local noise sources
• Determining the acceptable noise level
• Determining the places of the acoustical sensitive rooms in the new buildings
• Determining the wall- and floorstructures
• Planning the insulation of vibration
• Harmonizing with the planning of room acoustics

3. The acoustics of building machinery systems

• Determining the optimal placing of the building machinery rooms and sets
• Determining the noise level's requirements of the building machinery
• Planning the insulation of vibration
• Acoustical desing of the building machinery ducts
• Planning the breaktroughing of wall- and floorstructures

4. Soundsystem desing

• Choosing the soundsystem
• Determining the system's place in the room
• Harmonizing with the plans of room acoustics
• Determining the system plans and elements
