Ten questions concerning Architectural Acoustics

open access: yesBuilding and Environment
Building and room acoustics are relatively modern architectural and engineering disciplines. Nevertheless, acoustics was also a concern for buildings in the past, e.g., in theatres in ancient Greece and in Roman times. Nowadays, we spend 80–90 % of our time indoors, and sound impacts our communication and actions in an environment to a great extent ...
