Spectacular Use of Wood at UMass Design Building

Acoustics is the key to success for many buildings and building spaces. Most of us have dined in a noisy restaurant unable to hear our friend sitting across the table or tried to study in a library full of distracting noises.

Workplaces today tend to be open and collaborative, but the noise level may inhibit productivity.

The Building & Construction Technology Program at UMass will host a free Acoustics and Vibration in Mass Timber program on February 28th at 4 pm both at the Olver Design Building Room 170 and online.

Rose Mary Su, the Principal Consultant at ACENTECH,  will discuss the role of acoustics in mass timber buildings, and how acoustically comfortable space is achieved in the face of multiple obstacles.
