Offices, Commercial Spaces, Schools

  • Open Plan Office
  • Ceiling Space in Need of Sound Absorbing Treatment

Noise isolation, speech privacy, and adequate speech inteligibility are important requirements for many office spaces, commercial spaces, and schools.  Adequate design for high sound transmission class (STC) partitions, appropriate reverberation times (RTs) and appropriate building ventilation (HVAC) noise is essential for occupant comfort and productivity.  

 

ACI works with clients to determine the specific requirements and provides sound advice on construction and acoustical treatment.  In addition, for projects that require a higher assessment level in conjunction with sound reinforcement systems, ACI uses the EASE room noise modeling software which enables detailed projections and noise mitigation scenarios.
