Acoustic Waves Course
Gain mastery over acoustic waves in office environments by linking airborne sound propagation, speech physics, room acoustics, and barrier effects to forecast SPL, RT60, and intelligibility. Learn to design layouts and select materials that significantly cut noise and boost speech clarity in real-world settings.

What will I learn?
This course equips you with practical tools to predict, evaluate, and enhance sound quality in open-plan offices. You'll explore key acoustic principles, sound propagation, and frequency responses, applying geometric and energy models, RT60 calculations, and one-third-octave analysis to actual spaces. Conclude with effective design approaches for barriers, absorbers, layouts, and diffusers ready for immediate use.
