ACOUSTICS IN ARCHITECTURE Architectural acoustics is the science and engineering of achieving a good sound within a building and is a branch of acoustical engineering. Architectural acoustics can be about achieving good speech intelligibility in a theatre, restaurant or railway station, enhancing the quality of music in a concert hall or recording studio, or suppressing noise to make offices and homes more productive and pleasant places to work and live in. Architectural acoustic design is usually done by acoustic consultants. Symphony Hall, Birmingham, an example of the application of architectural acoustics.  IN THIS PRESENTATION Reverberation Absorption coefficient Wavelength Frequency Sound power Decibels Threshold of pain Attenuation Echoes Reflected sound Flutter Focusing Creep Diffusion and diffraction Sound masking Airborne and structure borne sounds Specular reflection, Reverberant field Design and materials for acoustic treatment Reverberation Absorption coefficient Wavelength Frequency Sound power Decibels Threshold of pain Attenuation Echoes Reflected sound Flutter Focusing Creep Diffusion and diffraction Sound masking Airborne and structure borne sounds Specular reflection, Reverberant field Design and materials for acoustic treatment  Thank you Please revise
