How to Specify Seamless Acoustical Ceilings
An established approach to creating acoustical ceilings involves acoustical plaster systems (renowned for their exceptional acoustics and visual appeal but demanding a significant investment of time and money during installation). A more novel alternative in acoustical drywall is available, offering a solution that not only meets acoustic standards but also delivers a drywall aesthetic at a reduced cost. This session delves into the journey of seamless acoustic and drywall ceiling solutions which will show the advantages of this technology in enhancing occupants’ well-being.
Understanding IBC 2021 Updates for Classroom Acoustics
WJHW is an authority on understanding the International Building Code (IBC) 2021 regulations pertaining to classroom acoustics. Michael will provide a comprehensive overview of the updated IBC codes, offering clarity on the requirements and standards for achieving optimal acoustical environments in educational settings. Attendees will gain valuable insights into the importance of compliance with these regulations and learn practical strategies for ensuring superior classroom acoustics that enhance learning outcomes and student well-being.
Whether you’re an architect, engineer, or other industry professional, this session promises to be an enriching experience that will broaden your understanding of acoustics and its transformative potential.
