Acoustic Design for Urban Educational Buildings by Using Noise Tools, IBANA Calc and Ecotect

Abstract Classroom is an integral part of learning activities in educational buildings. Learning the classroom can be effective and focused if it has a good acoustic design. Unfortunately, most buildings are spread out urban areas, which have high noise level. This research aims to find best design for areas. By using Noise Tools, IBANA Calc Ecotect as simulation method, discusses handling areas through 3 (three) things. (1) Providing barrier with height 2.5 m reduce outdoor area building from 47.5 60.9 dB; (2) The use block concreates materials, glass laminated metal panels on facade building, reducing level 27dB; (3) framed plaster board suspended ceiling providing response estimated decay at all frequencies under seconds.
