Elements in a structure are typically categorized into two types of fire loads: permanent and temporary. READ MORE

  2. 2. The effect of furniture on room acoustic parameters and its dependence on the sound absorbing properties of the ceiling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk akustik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Huong Nguyen; [2023]
    Keywords : Room acoustics; furniture; Sabine s formula; SEA model; sound absorption; sound scattering; reverberation time; speech clarity; sound strength; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In ordinary public rooms such as classrooms and offices, the base line of acoustical treatment is an absorbent suspended ceiling. Due to the non-uniform distribution of the absorptive ceiling material, the scattering as well as the absorption properties of furniture will have a significant effect on room acoustic parameters such as reverberation time, speech clarity and sound strength.
