Case Study

Acoustic Treatment

Cairn Homes – Mount Errol

Initial Survey – Pre treatment

Cairn Homes
Conference room

It was very difficult to hold meetings in the conference space due to the hard surfaces, height of the ceiling and length of the room.

Due to room construction and dimension, Intelligible speech and comfortable conversation due to reverberation was next to impossible. Also from the client/AV side there was reverberation/echo causing the AV unusable.

Cairn Homes – Mount Errol

Initial Survey – Pre treatment

Paper based/Manual RT Calculation

The target reverberation time for room is 0.8 Tmf.
The table below shows the target reverberation time, the predicted reverberation time without treatment.

The following products have been added to the room:

The table below shows the target reverberation time, the predicted reverberation time with treatment,
there is also a graphic representation of the comparsion of the predicted reverberation with and without the acoustic products below:

Post Treatment

Paper based/Manual RT Calculation

TMF after treatment achieved .54

Results

This section summarised the results of the acoustic measurements made at the Conference Room of Cairn Homes, Mt. Errol, Ailesbury CI, Dublin 4.

RT60 Results

Table 2 below provides a summary of the measured RT60 in Octave Bands from 63Hz to 8kHz. from measurements taken in the Conference Room of Cairn Homes, Mt. Errol, Ailesbury CI, Dublin 4.

This table provides the mid frequency reverberation time (TMF) metric which is the arithmetic averaged reverberation time of the Octave bands of 500Hz, 1kHz and 2 Khz.
