Acoustics
where V is the volume of the building or Hall under consideration, ai and Si are the absorption coefficient
and the surface areas of the surface enclosing the volume V
3. Absorption of sound
Absorption of the sound is very important from the surfaces to reduce the reverberation time. It depends on
the material of the surface. Highly absorbing materials are required to be used on the surfaces for a good
acoustic halls so as to reduce the reflection and hence reverberation time.
