Abstract

The Saguaros Corazones de Alameda school in Santiago, Chile had a problem—bad acoustics. Both the background noise levels and reverberation time were much too high. The children had a difficult time understanding the teacher such that their attention was less than exemplary. Teachers had a significant absentee rate due to vocal strain issues. A sound reinforcement system was being considered—but architectural acoustic treatments were substituted with very good results. See the video and hear the results that good architectural design can make.
