Basic Principle of Acoustics and Architectural Suggestions for the Auditorium in Theater

Abstract:

Many new Grand Theaters are constructed around China in recent years, and it is very important for architect to be familiar with the basic principle and knowledge of acoustics when designing the theaters. RT (Reverberation Time), ITDG (Initial Time Delay Gap), Loudness, BR, Surrounded sense and spatial sense are the major factors that affect the sound quality of the hall. All of them determine the different subjective feeling and quality of sound. According to the causes and requirements of these factors, the basic recommendations are put forward for theater auditorium hall design to ensure good sound effect.
