Acoustic Waves Course
Gain mastery over acoustic waves for office environments: link airborne sound propagation, speech acoustics, room reverberation, and noise control elements to accurately predict SPL, RT60, and speech clarity. Develop designs using layouts and materials that tangibly lower noise levels and boost communication effectiveness in workplaces.

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