Seminar: Session D1
Multi-Family Sound Control
8:00 - 9:00 AM, Room 318A
There are many ways to solve the sound dilemma in multi-family construction.
This presentation will help architects learn and understand how noise is measured, types of noise, and how to build and design with noise control on your mind.
You will learn the different elements involved in an entangled net sound system and how any multi-family construction can benefit from it.
The objectives are to review how noise results are measured and types of noise in building design; discuss and identify the most common acoustical systems for quiet living in multi-family, and understanding that one component is not the solution in controlling noise; compare the performance of various building materials needed to reach certain classification standards, as well as establish the benefits of living in noise-free environments; and finally, to establish the best practices for healthy living with the
use of an entangled net sound system.
