When designing architectural acoustics, it is very important to include a professional acoustic into the design process at the right time. Good acoustics is not just placing enough sound absorbing materials around the room. Acoustically sensitive room qualities are strongly determined by room construction, its layout, geometry and purpose of the room.

During preparation of projects of architectural acoustics, we especially pay attention to the aesthetic view of the room. This is why we collaborate with architects to maximally blend the acoustic solutions with the interior design. We also prepare architectural acoustics interior projects, we carry out existing solution changes according to set criterion (economical, ergonomical, functional, etc.).

In our projects we include full design documentation – drawings, explanatory papers, technical specification, material list, calculation data and other results, recommendations, interior solutions, estimated costs.

We prepare projects for all kinds of buildings and rooms:

• Educational purpose rooms;
• Sound recording studios;
• Rehearsal halls;
• Concert halls;
• Multi-functional event halls;
• Gyms;
• Theatres, opera houses;
• Open plan offices;
• Administrative purpose rooms;
• Industrial, technical spaces;
• Cinemas;
• Music playback rooms;
• Conference, meeting rooms;
• TV and radio studios;
• Increased confidentiality rooms;

Software packages we use:

• Acoustical environment simulation calculations – Odeon AS “Odeon Industrial 14.0”
• Acoustical environment simulation calculations – AFMG “EASE 4.4”

We prepare sound insulation – constructional acoustics solutions.

We pick constructions, calculate sound insulation parameters, specify any additional requirements and possible mistakes.

We perform insulation properties comparison calculations, consult about possible material changes and potential results. We also prepare technical tasks for sound insulation requirements.

We calculate, simulate and evaluate possible noise propagation through constructions and estimate likely noise level in adjacent rooms. Our solutions and requirements are made according to STR 2.01.07:2003, BREEAM, LEED and other good practice recommendations. We give feedback to the client about possible results, effects after installing chosen solutions.

Software packages we use:

• Acoustical environment simulation calculations – Odeon AS “Odeon Industrial 14.0”
• Construction sound insulation parameter calculation software package – “INSUL 9.0”

We design passive and active noise control solutions. We can prepare strategies and projects regarding noise control.

According to the noise control strategy we can prepare room layout, give requirements and recommendations to other project elements.

If needed, we can give feedback and consult about chosen solutions. We can compose measurement and testing plan, evaluate results.

Software packages we use:

• Acoustical environment simulation calculations – AFMG “EASE 4.4”
• Construction sound insulation parameter calculation software package – “INSUL 9.0”
• Environmental noise propagation simulations – DataKustik “CadnaA 4.6”

We prepare standardised sustainability reports concerning building acoustics and noise pollution to the environment. We perform primary assessments, consult and help project participants in achieving foreseen credits for acoustics.
Following the results of simulation calculations we can evaluate the effect noise will have on the environment. We can also provide guidance in choosing the right prevention measures to control noise pollution.
