Course description: AEC Daily: How Building Partitions and Floors Attenuate Sound
Today, architects and designers need to give special consideration to building acoustics when developing plans for new and newly renovated construction projects. Excessive noise in any environment is considered a serious problem that can negatively impact occupant comfort, leading to learning difficulties, sleep deprivation, delayed recovery from illness, and lack of privacy. Sound basics are discussed in this course, and STC, IIC, and sound attenuation (reduction) techniques are explained. Various case studies are examined to develop further understanding of the performance of common sound abatement assemblies that are essential for occupant well-being and comfort.
Explain noise, dB, frequency scales, airborne sound, and impact sound, and describe how excessive noise can negatively impact occupant comfort, causing stress and sleep deprivation.
Define STC and IIC, and explain how to interpret an STC graph.
Discuss the importance of sound reduction for occupant well-being, and explain the effects of unwanted noise, such as learning difficulties, delayed recovery from illness, and lack of privacy in various building sectors including schools, hospitals, and residential buildings.
Explain attenuation techniques in common assemblies, and discuss best practices that are essential for occupant well-being and comfort.
