MATERIALS USED FOR WALLS IN AN AUDITORIUM
WALLS OF AN AUDITORIUM COVER A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF SURFACE AREA AND IT PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE
IN THE ACOUSTICS OF THE AUDITORIUM MAKING IT IMPORTANT TO TREAT IT WITH THE RIGHT KIND OF MATERIALS.
THERE ARE A VARIETY OF MATERIALS USED FOR THE TREATMENT OF WALLS WHICH HELP IN THE SAME.
TYPES OF MATERIALS:
CONCAVE WALL THAT ALLOWS EVEN CONCAVE AND CONVEX TRIANGULAR PANEL AT EQUAL
DISTRIBUTION OF SOUND DISTANCE TO ALLOW EVEN DISTRIBUTION OF SOUND
MATERIALS USED FOR CEILING IN AN AUDITORIUM
A suspended acoustic ceiling is a secondary ceiling, hung below the structural ceiling both to treat room acoustics and to look
attractive. Suspended ceilings have the added advantage of hiding the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations from view
while maintaining some level of access to these utilities. Coming slides will explain the wide range of suspended acoustical ceiling
types, with a focus on the acoustic characteristics rather than access, installation, or cost.
TYPES OF MATERIALS:
• Fiberglass
-Cementitious wood fiber
• Metal -Reinforced Gypsum tiles (GFRG)
-Polyethylene felts
• Wood
-PVC stretch
• Gypsum Plaster
-Acoustic foams
How do suspended acoustic ceilings affect sound performance?
Suspended acoustic ceilings, then, are installed for one
purpose, or a combination of acoustical purposes (here
slightly oversimplified).
METAL
Metals used in ceilings are typically aluminum, with a big effort put
into recycling.
Panned ceilings are made of tin and other alloys.
In addition to absorbing low frequencies, diaphragmatic movement
of metal materials might also cause rattles , so they too should be
laminated to a solid core material.
FIBERGLASS PANELS
GYPSUM PLASTER
The ceiling is an important factor for sound isolation. Gypsum plaster
ceiling panels are used as they have smooth surfaces that aid sound
reflection.
They also provide for acoustical intimacy, clarity, and strength of the
overall room's sound.
Suspended from the ceiling to provide short delayed, reflective sound
energy the reflector panels can provide the correct "ceiling shape 'for
early reflections that help avoid reverberation
SPECIALITY MATERIAL
Specialty ceiling materials can be used together, such as wood and fabric acoustical panels
•Cementitious wood fiber: Fine wood fibers cemented together into an aerated acoustic pad.
•Reinforced Gypsum tiles (GFRG): Like wood or metal, the density of Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum requires holes to make
them.
•Polyethylene felts: Made from recycled bottles, these plastic felts share the acoustics of fiberglass, and come in a variety
of colors.
•PVC stretch materials: These elastic films stretch across a bay or an entire ceiling. Fiberglass can be placed behind to improve
acoustics, or the PVC films can be micro-perforated.
•Acoustic foams: Made of urethane and melamine plastics, open and closed cell construction provides acousticians different
sound attenuation properties. Some can be painted.
AUDITORIUM FLOORING
Floors in Auditoriums of all sizes, whether built for a
small performance company or a large urban
symphony, get their share of high foot traffic.
Such spaces need to present a clean, safe and
comfortable environment for every audience to enjoy.
MAIN REQUIREMENTS-
When selecting a floor for auditoriums, make
sure you consider the following requirements
• Colors that stimulate concentration
• Sound reduction
• Contributes to indoor air quality
• Resistant to traffic
Easy to clean and maintain even can tolerate bleach wash. Keeping in mind the usability of
the flooring, the carpets are made with the solution that resists friction, to become an
ideal product for high traffic environment. Comes with a wide range of variety, selection
and design. These are made to be fire-resistant. No other acoustical material performs the
dual role of a floor covering and a versatile acoustical aid like carpets. Acoustic Carpet Rolls
makes a significant contribution to any room’s reverberation time.
HARDWOOD FLOORING
Hardwood flooring is usually the most common of stage flooring option. It’s an excellent
choice and people’s favorite for its finishing look. Hardwood can sometimes require more
investment to maintain on the long-run, but it is totally worth it.
Wood gives stages a beautiful finish that compliments lighting very well. A low-medium
gloss enables the lighting to pop off the staging floor, incorporating some depth and
saturation to the look but without adding the bad reflections on projection screens.
• Easy cleaning
• Strength
• Variety of choices
• Acoustic properties
• Better air quality
• Ecological alternative
• Damage resistant
• Warmth
VINYL FLOORING
Vinyl flooring is a new type of resilient flooring. Installation of Vinyl sheets is easy
because it simply glues to your existing floor or underlayment.
Vinyl flooring that is backed with foam and has a flexible surface, makes it a good
choice for sound reduction. Vinyl sheet floor covering is generally available in either 6'
or 12' widths.
• Lightweight
• Flexible
• Thermal insulation
• Acoustical insulation
• Environment friendly
• Water and fire resistant
