Education Acoustics

Education Acoustic Solutions

Ace Acoustics supplies and installs specialist acoustic wall and ceiling treatments for education environments, including classrooms, lecture theatres, teaching studios, communal spaces and sports halls.

Solutions are developed around the room, acoustic requirements and architectural design of the individual project, with site-fabricated Whisper Walls® stretch-fabric systems providing the principal wall treatment where appropriate.

Education Environments

Acoustic Treatment for Teaching and Learning Spaces

Education interiors have different acoustic requirements depending on room use, volume, occupancy and teaching activity. Ace Acoustics develops wall and ceiling treatments for classrooms, lecture theatres, teaching studios, communal areas and sports halls, with each system selected around the requirements of the individual space.

Classrooms

Wall and ceiling treatments for reverberation control and improved speech conditions within teaching spaces.

Lecture Theatres

Acoustic treatments developed around room geometry, seating layouts, presentation areas and project-specific performance requirements.

Teaching Studios

Specialist wall and panel systems for teaching, rehearsal, media and other acoustically sensitive education spaces.

Communal Spaces

Acoustic treatment for shared learning areas, circulation-adjacent spaces and other busy education interiors.

Sports Halls

Robust acoustic wall treatments for large-volume spaces where sound absorption and resistance to demanding use may both be required.

Acoustic Approach

Reverberation Control Designed Around the Space

Ace Acoustics systems are internal room-acoustic treatments used to reduce reflected sound and reverberation. The required treatment area, system depth and location are determined by the acoustic requirements, room geometry and architectural constraints of the project.

Where an acoustic consultant has established performance criteria, Ace Acoustics can coordinate the proposed system and supporting technical information with the project team.

These are acoustic treatments for reverberation and sound absorption within a space — not soundproofing systems.

Acoustic Performance

Performance and Education Acoustic Requirements

Acoustic performance is selected on a project-specific basis using tested system data where applicable. Standard site-fabricated Whisper Walls® systems are available in a range of depths and absorber classifications, while specialist configurations such as pinboard and high-impact treatments are assessed according to their specific construction.

BB93 & Project Requirements

Where BB93 or other project acoustic criteria apply, the required reverberation and absorption targets should be established by the project acoustic design or acoustic consultant. Ace Acoustics can then provide appropriate system information and coordinate the proposed treatment against those requirements.

Design & Installation

Integrated with the Architectural Interior

Site-fabricated systems can be developed around wall dimensions, corners, openings, architectural details and building services. Fabric selection, joint positions and system depth can be coordinated with the design team to achieve the required visual finish alongside the acoustic treatment.

Installation can also be coordinated with the wider construction programme, with framework and acoustic components installed at an appropriate stage and final fabric finishes completed as part of the finishing works where required.

Technical Support

Support for Architects, Consultants and Contractors

Ace Acoustics works with architects, acoustic consultants, designers and contractors to review room requirements, proposed treatment areas, system depths, fabric finishes, detailing and relevant acoustic or fire-performance information.
