Ground breaking Revelations on Acoustics and Electro Acoustic Interplay in Large Venue Spaces

DUBAI, UAE, February 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- A demonstration with real sound, architectural acoustics and the impact on the design of public address and emergency evacuation systems in a glass enclosed transportation center is set to feature at an event designed to help architects in Saudi Arabia this April.

Fred T. Shen, President of Shen Milsom Wilke, LLC will be discussing acoustics and electro acoustic interplay in large venue spaces at IQPC's Acoustics in Construction from the 10 - 13 April 2011 at the Riyadh Marriott Hotel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia summit.

Thanks to the improvement in the quality of components used in modern systems and advancements in digital signal processing, the use of acoustic enhancement systems has been on the rise for years. Ongoing research has provided greater insight into what modern systems require to perform successfully.

Acoustics, noise, and vibrations have a tremendous impact on individuals' lives and businesses, especially in densely populated urban environments. In the construction sector, consideration of acoustics is important during all stages of a project. It is essential that new projects are not only fit-for-purpose in terms of end user noise tolerance and legislation, but they also provide cost-effective and high performance acoustic solutions to acoustic requirements.

Contractors are implementing acoustic enhancement systems in venues of all types, both indoors and outdoors. These systems are a new tool that offer architects, acoustic consultants, and sound designers greater ability in providing a more acoustically enjoyable experience. The applications are equally varied, from concert halls, opera houses, and performing arts venues to houses of worship, sports arenas, sound stages, recording facilities, and even private homes.

Mr Shen experts join a host of critically acclaimed international and regional acoustic engineers and architects including Prof. Samir N. Y. Gerges , President ICA and Vice President, I-INCE, Gerald Stewart, Acoustic Director, AECOM, Roger Kelly, Chairman Designate, Building Acoustic Group Committee, Institute of Acoustics UK, Daryl Prasad , Managing Director UK, Marshall Day Acoustics, Nizar Kamouna, Senior Project Manager, KEO International Consultants in speaking at Acoustics in Construction Saudi Arabia summit, a four day forum being held in Riyadh from 10 - 13 April 2011. The event will explore regulatory and contractual requirements as well as the latest innovations in materials and technologies and optimise planning and design. .
