Acoustic Waves Course
Gain mastery over acoustic waves in office settings by linking airborne sound propagation, speech acoustics, room reverberation, and barrier effects to accurately predict SPL, RT60, and intelligibility. Learn to design layouts and select materials that significantly cut noise levels and boost speech clarity in real-world environments.

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.
