Study Of Medium And Small-scale Gymnasium Acoustical Design Approach

Acoustics is widely used and almost involved with all the aspects of our life. Architectural acoustics is a branch of the acoustics and considered as an edge subject. It has a close relationship with architecture, meanwhile it is highly involved with such subjects as physiology, psychology, music, language, electronics, mechanism, auto-control and computer science, on which the development of architectural acoustics is firmly based. With the development of the science and technology and the improvement of human lives, the requirement for better sound environment becomes increasingly more exigent. People now exert much more emphasis on the hearing or sound conditions of music halls, theatres, meeting rooms, cinemas and gymnasiums. And with the spread of acoustics technology, the more comfortable and peaceful living houses, hospitals, hotels and office buildings have been turned from possibility to utility.The paper, based on the theory of the room acoustics, sets as the mainly research objective the mini/medium-sized integrated gymnasium and mainly study the ar acoustical design of the integrated gymnasium. After summarizing all the basic related conceptions, the paper primarily explores into the timbre of the integrated gymnasium. Through the comparison of such characteristics as acoustic effect, aesthetic feeling and economic cost of a particular project, it aims to design the architectural acoustics effect for the mini/medium-sized integrated gymnasium supported with detailed factual cases.The basic task of the hall timbre design, by finding out the physical condition and acoustic disposing method of the indoor wave transmission, is to ensure a better indoor hearing condition. The gymnasium acoustical design includes the cubage calculation, the shape design, mixing design, and the choosing and laying of the architectural acoustics fitment materials and controlling gymnasium noise. Putting these measures in practice can obviously change the hearing effect got by the audience in the gymnasium. The common goal between acoustic designer and architect is to gain the high unification between better acoustic function and architecture art.
