RT60

Building Acoustics Simulation

Ecotone Acoustic Limited offers advanced Building Acoustics Simulation services to accurately predict and optimize the acoustic performance of spaces before they’re built or renovated. Using state-of-the-art 3D modeling software and physics-based algorithms, we simulate how sound behaves in enclosed environments evaluating parameters such as RT60, Speech Intelligibility (STI), Sound Pressure Levels, and Flutter Echoes.

This service helps architects, consultants, and project managers make informed decisions about material selection, interior layouts, and acoustic treatments to meet desired performance standards. Ideal for auditoriums, schools, hotels, offices, and any space where acoustic quality is critical.

Our Services & Expertise

  • RT60 measurement across standardized octave bands (125 Hz – 4,000 Hz)
  • Listening point sound pressure level (SPL) estimation to identify zones of echo, dead spots, or sound
    buildup
  • Acoustic impedance estimation for floor treatments and soft furnishings such as carpets and chairs
  • Furniture alignment suggestions to optimize absorption, reflection, and diffusion
  • 3D simulation & auralization for accurate prediction of post-treatment outcomes
  • Experimental verification using both field data and modeled outputs for validation

We ensure the perfect alignment between measured data and predictive simulation enabling targeted design recommendations that save cost, time, and deliver high-performance acoustic environments.
