Like
most school gymnasiums Moody Middle School in Richmond,
VA had a noise (reverberation) problem. When the gymnasium
was full of students, it was next to impossible to distinguish
one conversation from another or hear the public address
system.
The school contacted Acoustical Solutions, Inc. to
find away to solve this problem. Acoustical Solutions,
Inc. installed a series of 2’x4’x2”
thick AlphaEnviro
hanging baffles in between the ceiling trusses to
overcome this problem.
“The
difference is astronomical! The PE folks report that
announcements can now be heard, 100 sixth graders are
loud but not resonant and the teachers in the two classrooms
behind the gym have to go out in the hall to see if
the other classes are even in the gym. It's amazing
what a thin piece of [fiberglass] covered in plastic
can do. Thanks to all who had a part in procuring the
sound panels.”
