AIA Fort Wayne April Program

Join members of AIA Fort Wayne for the April program.

Fundamentals of Architectural Acoustics - presented by Oscar Otero, Haverstick Designs.

In the world of architecture, acoustics is one of the most overlooked factors during the design process. This often results in visually appealing interiors with poor acoustics and unexpected complaints from patrons. Through this course, we will discuss the importance of acoustics in both a legal and general wellness sense, learn about occupational noise regulation, and discuss the fundamentals of architectural acoustics. We will also showcase a real world example of the applications of architectural acoustics.

This program has been approved for 1.0 AIA HSW LU. Lunch will be provided and served at 12/noon EST.

Thanks to Oscar Otero, Haverstick Designs and the Haverstick Designs Team for making this program possible. Haverstick Designs is a long standing AIA Indiana sponsor.

AIA Fort Wayne Executive Committee will meet at 11:00 am at the KAIZEN Center before the Section program.
