KEYNSHAM - ABSORPTION

50% of the ceiling area is exposed concrete to provide passive cooling.

The other 50% is perforated aw=0.7 (Class C)

Absorbent outer surfaces to balustrades. Slatted timber.

Absorbent desk dividers.

KEYNSHAM - SCREENING

Minimal screening – only desk dividers.

1100mm high (from floor).

Do not block direct sound.

KEYNSHAM – SUMMARY

Low masking noise.

Low absorption.

Low screening.

What is the significance for privacy?

POST-OCCUPANCY EVALUATON

Total Performance of Low Carbon Buildings

8 office buildings in the UK, 16 in China.

4 POE acoustic questions.

Acoustic control parameters will be recorded.
