The contribution of room acoustic design on control of ambient noise level in atria

摘要

The aim of this research is to examine the degree to which the fit out room acoustic design affects reverberant activity noise level in atria, relative to other contributing factors, such as atria geometry and spatial planning. Acoustic modelling outputs are presented to demonstrate the comparative changes in reverberant noise level that result from modifying each contributing design factor, given otherwise consistent conditions. The research is intended to inform the atria design approach in respect to which design element require greater emphasis for the purpose of controlling reverberant activity noise level in atria.
