Parametric Understanding on Integration of Architectural Design and Sound-Related Issues in Small-Scale Churches
Publication: Architectural Engineering 2003: Building Integration Solutions
Abstract
A small sample among many church sanctuaries in a southern Virginia town were selected and subjected to a study of acoustical performance. This study was made as an initial investigation to understand what makes a desirable sound environment, with local and regional context in small and medium sized worship spaces. Analytical parameters of acoustic performance, simulation and auralization of the effect of various types of sound sources such as speech, music and noise, are investigated and compared among the selected samples. This paper presents the initial results of this study as well as suggestions for further studies.
