Acoustic Waves Course
Gain mastery over acoustic waves in office settings by linking airborne sound propagation, speech physics, room acoustics, and barrier effects to forecast SPL, RT60, and speech intelligibility. Then, develop layouts and materials that effectively lower noise levels and boost speech clarity in real-world applications.

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 essential acoustic principles, sound propagation, and frequency responses, applying geometric models, energy calculations, RT60 predictions, and one-third-octave band analysis to actual spaces. Conclude with actionable design approaches for barriers, absorbers, layouts, and diffusers ready for immediate use.
