Good acoustics a headache file?
Poor acoustics can have negative consequences. For example, productivity can decrease because it causes concentration problems and faster fatigue. But what do you do about it?
Poor acoustics can have negative consequences. For example, productivity can decrease because concentration problems and causes more rapid fatigue. But yes, what do you do about it? You can't just renovate your school building, office building or restaurant. Or is it also easy?
No higher math
Believe it or not, acoustics isn't higher math. To improve the acoustics of your space, there are accessible solutions that work incredibly well. And by accessible, we do not mean that it requires renovations. For example, by hanging something on the wall, modifying the furniture or installing wall panels, you can already achieve great results.
The acoustic experience of your space measured in no time
First, you need to know exactly what the acoustics in your classroom, office or hospitality facility are doing. Because reverb or sound reflections are annoying, but how do you make them concrete? By taking an acoustic measurement, you will know in no time what the acoustic experience in your space is.
Reverberation time and attenuation
So it can be that simple. Someone comes by with measuring equipment and measures certain values. These values say something about the noise level and the reverberation time. The reverberation time depends on the amount of sound-absorbing material present in the room and how it is distributed across the room. This can be used to determine how many square meters of damping you need to add to your space. What that damping looks like depends on the space and the needs. Sometimes wall panels are ideal, sometimes acoustic furniture, lamps or ceiling panels are a better solution.
Sometimes comfortable is enough
The values are recorded in a measurement report, together with advice on possible solutions. Based on that report, it can be determined how many square meters of damping you need for optimal acoustics. But of course, you don't always have to go for the optimal. Comfortable is often enough.
