Abstract
Issues in meeting the ANSI 12.60 classroom acoustics standard fall into two categories: overcoming design team unwillingness to implement recommended criteria and finding practical methods of meeting issues of reverberation control and HVAC noise control. Solutions to HVAC noise control are emerging; an example is the use of fan coil units in new construction. Education of owners and designers is an ongoing process. It is hoped this paper contributes to a dialogue between the parties involved in school construction.
