Ambient noise in open plan offices

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1989
This paper summarizes ambient noise data that were collected in open plan offices over the past 2 years. The approach centered on monitoring the noise level in empty workstations to establish some statistics of the noise that would be auditioned by a person sitting in that workstation during a normal work day.

Measurement of speech privacy in open plan offices

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1987
The proper design of an open plan office for speech privacy and for overall acoustical comfort considers many variables, all of which interact to produce the final acoustical environment. Using a loudspeaker to represent the talker, the sound spectrum that would be heard by a listener in an adjacent workstation is measured. From these measurements, the
