PRECISION OF ROOM ACOUSTIC MODELLING IN OPEN-PLAN OFFICES
Inter-Noise 2022, 2023Room acoustic models are often used to predict parameters that describe acoustic conditions in various spaces, also in open-plan offices. An open-plan office of 81 m² was experimentally studied using 22 different room acoustic conditions. The conditions were built using typical absorption materials, office screens, and furniture.

The sound attenuation in an open-plan office
Applied Acoustics, 1973Abstract Attenuation curves have been measured in an open-plan office without furniture and with a number of different furniture arrangements. The furniture and screens were found to have little influence on the attenuation curves, which fluctuate in level out to distances of approximately 10 m from the source and tend to stay close to the 6 dB per ...

Ambient noise in open plan offices
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1989This 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.
