What will I learn?
This course equips you with tools to predict, evaluate, and enhance sound quality in open-plan offices. Explore key acoustic principles, sound propagation, and frequency effects, then use geometric models, energy methods, RT60 calculations, and one-third-octave analysis for real spaces. Conclude with practical strategies for barriers, absorption, layout, and diffusion.
