UNDERSTANDING ACOUSTICS

Whilst acoustics is a science and requires complex maths and models it can also be broken down into a few basic elements:

A

Absorption. the use of materials to absorb sound energy and reduce reflection

B

Blocking. the use of sound barriers to prevent sound travelling in straight paths

C

Cover. ensuring sufficient background sound levels to promote concentration and speech privacy
