Acoustics in Interior Environments: Design & Perception
Discover the intriguing relationship between architecture and sound in interior spaces. Explore the fundamentals of acoustics, including the impact of materials, shapes, and room design on sound propagation and human perception. Uncover the intricacies of acoustic properties, noise control, and sound diffusion in architectural design. Delve into practical examples and principles of architectural acoustics, and learn how to create optimal listening environments while enhancing privacy and comfort.

Arch, Architect, NCIDQ Office: W 325 Grover Center Office hours: MW: 10:45-11:45, TTH: 12-1 Telephone: 740. 593. 2869 E-mail: ziff@ohio.edu Acoustics in Interior Architecture
Acoustics in Built Spaces Some of the questions that arise when design and acoustics come together: The human relationship between sound and architecture. Sound, noise, and vibration what s the difference? The fundamental relationship between architecture, shape, form, volume and materials. Acoustics and the design process
US Gypsum Continuing Education Series: Understanding Acoustics in Architectural Design Some of the components in the study of acoustics: Speed of sound, frequency, and wavelength. Fundamentals of sound propagation Sound Propagation, Representation & Measurement Sound Transmission mechanisms Sound isolation Acoustic properties of materials Noise and vibration theory and criteria Noise and vibration control from building systems and its implication on architectural design
Acoustic Bricks Acoustic issues in designing interiors: Fundamentals of sound in enclosed spaces Surface material and geometry sound absorbing, reflecting and diffusing properties Relationship to human perception sound reflection sequence, sound in 3d, reverberation Good and bad examples of acoustics in the built environment principles of architectural acoustics: how we hear and perceive sound both indoors and outdoors, what are appropriate criteria for listening environments and privacy, and how architectural decisions of layout, materials, room shape, and design impact what we hear in and about a space.
