Acoustic Waves Course
Gain mastery over acoustic waves for office environments by linking airborne sound propagation, speech acoustics, room reverberation, and barrier effects to forecast SPL, RT60, and speech clarity. Learn to design layouts, materials, and treatments that significantly lower noise levels and boost communication effectiveness in workplaces.

What will I learn?
This course equips you with practical methods to analyse, predict, and optimise sound quality in open-plan offices. Explore essential acoustic principles, sound propagation, and frequency responses, then use geometric models, energy calculations, RT60 predictions, and one-third-octave band analysis for actual spaces. Conclude with effective strategies for absorbers, barriers, layouts, and diffusers ready for immediate application.
