Case study on the Improvement of Acoustic performance for Small Multipurpose Hall

소규모 다목적 홀의 음향성능 개선 사례

Recently, in accordance with the cultural progress and the improvement of citizen's consciousness level, it is the real situation that the construction of small-scaled Multi-Purpose Hall where various cultural events could be performed, is on increasing. However, because the most of Multi-Purpose Hall had been designed and built up without any consideration on Acoustic Factor, many problems are on occurring thereat. Because those small-scaled Multi-Purpose Hall have been mostly used with the finishing material which contains a high degree of Acoustic Absorption indiscreetly, both diffusion and reflection of sound are not establishing properly, and since the reverberation of sound is very low, in case of musical performance by musical instrument, its sound hears too arid and stiff, there occurs some acoustic defect such as it becomes difficult for music appreciation with sufficient timbre, so that the capability improvement on the matter is urgently requiring situation. On this viewpoint, this Research has caught the Authenticity of the forecasted value and actually measured value using Acoustic Simulation on the subject of the small-scaled Multi-Purpose Hall, and then intended to propose the optimum acoustic condition on the basis of the Authenticity. As the result, it could be designed a Multi-Purpose Hall equipped with the satisfactory acoustic performance compare with the time before improvement, so that it is considered that such research result could be practically used as the fundamental material when design for other similar small-scaled Multi-Purpose Hall in the future.
