Acoustic Waves Course
Gain mastery over acoustic waves in office settings by linking airborne sound propagation, speech acoustics, room reverberation, and noise control elements to accurately predict SPL, RT60 values, and speech clarity. Then, craft practical layouts and select materials that tangibly cut noise levels and boost communication effectiveness in workplaces.

What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on methods to forecast, evaluate, and enhance sound quality in open-plan offices. You'll explore key acoustic principles, sound transmission, and how frequency affects sound, then use straightforward geometric and energy models, RT60 calculations, and one-third-octave band analysis for actual spaces. Conclude with effective strategies for absorbers, screens, room setups, and diffusers ready for instant use.
