My acoustic tile consists of a curved surface with punctures
that is then replicated to create a chamber in between them which then bounces
back the sound to the theater. Upon doing some research, I decided to make the
tile out of wood. Wood provides much less in the way of sound isolation than
masonry because it is much less dense. Plywood comes in varying densities and
can contribute something to the equation in a multi-layer wall such as mine.
The main reason why I chose wood was because of its ability to reflect sound in
a very pleasing way. It is a useful material for sound treatment. Since wood
resonates easily, it has a way of absorbing some of the sound energy as it
vibrates, letting some of the sound back from whence it came.
These renders and exploded perspective diagram show how I plan to attach the tile to the surface behind it. this bent wood would be attached with bolts at each end (2 for each tile, this contains three tiles vertically). Lastly, these are some precedents that I looked to during my research and design process:
