These notes cover both parts of the "Acoustic Building Solutions in Architecture" course by Marcelo Blasco. The first part delves into the basics of acoustics, while the second part explores practical applications of acoustics, discussing their advantages and disadvantages. This document includes all the notes written in detail on the course slides, exam questions, solved exercises, essential formulas and tables crucial for exam preparation. With this document I got a score of 16/20.

SOUND - Answer-Sensation stimulated in the organs of hearing by mechanical radiant energy transmitted as longitudinal pressure waves through the air or other medium. SOUND WAVES - Answer-A longitudinal pressure wave in air or an elastic medium ,esp. one producing an audible sensation. WAVE - Answer-a disturbance or oscillation that transfers energy progressively from point to point in a medium or space without advance by the points themselves , as in the transmission of sound or light. ...

Define Equal Loudness Levels and How do we determine them? - ANS - By definition, when one refers to the loudness level of a sound, one is comparing the loudness of that sound with the loudness of a 1000 Hz tone. Loudness level is measured in units called phons. By definition, the loudness level of a sound in phons is equal to the dB SPL of a 1000 Hz tone judged equally loud. 20 phons is the loudness of a 1000 Hz tone at 20 dB SPL and the loudness of any other frequency sound that is perc...
