Building Acoustics Course

What will I learn?
You will build a solid foundation in sound physics, psychoacoustics, and vibration before moving into applied topics including room acoustics, material selection, and partition design. You will learn to calculate sound transmission loss, design floating floors, and specify HVAC silencers that meet occupancy-based noise criteria. The course covers acoustic measurement procedures for both airborne and impact sound, using standardised field and laboratory methods. You will also study acoustic design strategies for residential buildings, healthcare facilities, educational spaces, and performance venues. Supplementary content addresses simulation tools, international standards, environmental noise assessment, and emerging technologies including AI-assisted acoustic modelling.

Your lessons are perfect. I purchased the one-year package and finally have the opportunity to follow various topics of my interest without needing to change platforms... I thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to other people...

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can change chapters and skip content I don't need.

I like the content and the way videos are presented and transcribed, which speeds up the process!

The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos help a lot with learning.
