An Introduction to Acoustic Ceilings for Architects and Interior Designers

An Introduction to Acoustic Ceilings for Architects and Interior Designers

Rockfon

This CPD will explore acoustic principles in the built environment whilst discussing topics including compliance and regulations in various sectors, acoustic challenges, functional suspended ceiling design, fire safety, product durability and sustainability. It essentially aims to underscore the advantages of stone wool over other materials. By the end of the presentation you should have a greater understanding of: - The key performance characteristics of stone wool - Fire, Acoustics, Hygiene, Sustainability, Humidity - How to control acoustics in Health, Education, Leisure, Office - The importance and effect of good acoustics and the challenges faced in the built environment - Common acoustic design mistakes and the solutions - How to demonstrate compliance with Approved Document E, Requirement E4, BB93 Acoustics Designs of Schools, BATOD and the Equality Act - How to demonstrate compliance with Approved Document B, Requirement B2 and the essential use of non-combustible materials - The benefits of stone wool ceilings and walls

Interior Acoustic Surfaces for Monolithic Architecture

Interior Acoustic Surfaces for Monolithic Architecture

Rockfon

Modern monolithic surfaces can not only achieve a seamless aesthetic finish but also contribute to excellent acoustics within the room. This seminar focuses on seamless, highly noise absorbing acoustic solutions for ceilings and walls. It will help you to understand the following topics: - What is meant by monolithic architecture - Designing for both the eyes and the ears - Traditional ways of achieving monolithic acoustic finishes followed by a comparison with today’s modern solutions - The benefits of stone wool monolithic acoustic ceiling and wall finishes

Seamless acoustic ceilings for modern interior design

Seamless acoustic ceilings for modern interior design

Rockfon

A seamless acoustic ceiling is a much different proposition to a traditional modular acoustic ceiling. It is smooth. It is discreet. It can be shaped into something unbelievably creative or used in an historic building and no-one will notice. But it provides Class A sound absorption. We will show you how it works and how to deal with the practicalities of dealing with things like in-ceiling AV equipment, how to access services and how it transitions into a plasterboard ceiling. Through the use of case studies across Europe, we will show you when and when it is not appropriate to specify and whether a seamless acoustic ceiling contributes to a circular business model and building rating schemes. By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of: - How to confidently specify an acoustic seamless ceiling - Appropriate projects where it can be used - How in-ceiling services should be detailed, including accessing BIM objects - How to assess its contribution to building rating schemes and the circular economy - Where to find more information
