Abstract

Architects are used to designing visually. In order to expand their basic design tools, this book explores the interactions between sound, space, hearing, and architecture. To this end, the author uses contemporary and historic buildings and projects, but also fictional, philosophical, and theoretical approaches – the idea is not only to define sound as a source, but also as an instrument of architectural space. By introducing a metatheory of "critical hearing", designers are able to acoustically test their projects and contribute to their design with auditive input, already at the design stage. Architekten sind es gewohnt, visuell zu entwerfen. Um ihre Entwurfsgrundlagen zu erweitern, stellt dieses Buch die Zusammenhänge zwischen Klang, Raum, Hören und Architektur dar. Dafür nutzt der Autor zeitgenössische wie historische Bauten und Projekte, aber auch fiktionale, philosophische und theoretische Ansätze: schliesslich soll der Klang nicht nur als Quelle, sondern auch als Instrument des architektonischen Raums definiert werden. Durch die Einführung in eine Metatheorie des „kritischen Hörens" können die Entwerfenden ihre Projekte bereits in der Entwurfsphase akustisch prüfen und auditiv gestalten.

Abstract

Acoustics and protection against noise do not perhaps number among the primary parameters that normally influence the design of a building. Nevertheless, at the very latest when the lecturer in the seminar room cannot be heard, when the noise level in an open-plan office reaches unbearable levels, or when a neighbor's noise deprives you of sleep, it becomes clear just how essential acoustic can be to everyday well-being. it is not just concert halls or the amphitheaters of antiquity that call for acoustic quality; rather, every building, indeed every room, has an acoustic dimension that changes according to the nature of its particular requirements. This practice-oriented volume provides expert planners and architects but also interested developers with practical knowledge on the subject of acoustics in high-rise architecture, beginning with standards on methods of planning and prognosis and moving on to the areas of acoustics of rooms and architecture and noise protection in urban planning. Typologically organized chapters comment on proper approaches to the subject with examples of different types of building such as residential and office buildings, schools, kindergartens, lecture halls, event spaces, and so on, because appropriate acoustic conditions make an essential contribution to the success of a project. Schallschutz und Akustik gehören vielleicht nicht zu den primären Parametern, die den Entwurf eines Gebäudes normalerweise beeinflussen. Doch spätestens wenn man den Vortragenden im Seminarraum nicht versteht, der Geräuschpegel im Großraumbüro unerträgliche Ausmaße annimmt oder das Rumoren des Nachbars einem den Schlaf raubt, wird klar, wie wesentlich die Raumakustik zum alltäglichen Wohlbefinden beiträgt. Nicht nur Konzertsäle oder das antike Amphitheater erheben Anspruch auf akustische Qualität, sondern jedes Gebäude, sogar jeder Raum besitzt eine akustische Dimension, die je nach Funktion in ihren individuellen Anforderungen variiert. Der vorliegende Praxis-Band vermittelt allen Fachplanern, Architekten, aber auch interessierten Bauherren praxisnahe Kenntnisse zum Thema Akustik im Hochbau, angefangen von normativen Regelungen über Planungs- und Prognosemethoden bis hin zu den Bereichen Raumakustik, Bauakustik und Schallschutz im Städtebau. Typologische Kapitel erläutern beispielhaft den richtigen Umgang mit der Thematik an verschiedenen Gebäudearten wie beispielsweise Wohn- und Bürogebäuden, Schulen, Kindergärten, Hörsälen, Veranstaltungsräumen etc. , denn angemessene akustische Bedingungen tragen zum Erfolg eines Projektes massgeblich bei.

Abstract

As performance art forms have developed over the centuries, so too have the buildings to house them. Functionally and acoustically, properties of a particular room type can enhance the quality of a performance, raising artistic and production standards. Modern concert halls and opera houses are now very specialized buildings with specific acoustical characteristics. These characteristics are explored in this comprehensive and liberally illustrated book. "Auditorium acoustics and architectural design" builds on recent research and provides a thorough analysis of the state-of-the-art acoustic design of concert halls, drama theatres, opera houses and multi-purpose halls. Arguments are supported by forty detailed case studies and architectural drawings of seventy auditoria at a scale of 1:500. This book is an important resource for designers, architects, acousticians, engineers and students of design for the performing arts.
