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 design
- 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 design
- Choosing the soundsystem
- Determining the system’s place in the room
- Harmonizing with the plans of room acoustics
- Determining the system plans and elements
