Effective Materials for Acoustic Insulation first . first Flooring Floating Wood Floors with Insulation Layer A layer of foam or rubber (soundproof underlay) Floating parquet or laminate board Thick Vinyl (Luxury Vinyl Tiles - LVT) Installed over an insulation layer (like EVA foam ( Cork Flooring A natural material highly effective at sound absorption Carpet with Underpad Combined with a thick underlay (rubber foam or dense fiber ) Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) Layer Above Ceiling Hidden soundproof layer above gypsum ceiling Second: Ceiling Finishes Suspended Gypsum Ceiling (False Ceiling) Installed with a layer of fiberglass or Rockwool above Acoustic Ceiling Tiles Common in offices and large rooms Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) Layer Above Ceiling Hidden soundproof layer above gypsum ceiling

5. Third: Wall Finishes Double-Layer Gypsum BoardWith insulation (like Rockwool or MLV) between the drywall and the structural wal Soundproof Paint Contains sound-absorbing particles Acoustic Foam Panels Lightweight foam with a wavy or pyramid-shaped surfaceEffect : Absorbs echo and reverberation (ideal for studios) Smart Materials Acoustic Shape-Memory Alloys : •Material: Nickel-Titanium ( NiTi ), Copper-Aluminum-Nickel. •Properties: Thermally induced shape recovery. •Applications: Dynamic acoustic environments Fiberglass Panels: •Material: Fiberglass reinforced plastic. •Thickness: Typically 0.075 to 0.090 inches. •Applications: Sound insulation in walls, ceilings, and large spaces like auditoriums Shape-Memory Alloys: •Material: Nickel-Titanium ( NiTi ), Copper-Aluminum-Nickel. •Properties: Thermally induced shape recovery. •Applications: Dynamic acoustic environments

6. Smart MATERIALS Adaptive Acoustic Panels : These panels can adjust their sound absorption properties dynamically based on the environment. They use sensors and actuators to optimize acoustics for different activities, such as meetings or concerts. Hybrid Acoustic Panels : Combining traditional sound-absorbing materials with active noise cancellation technology, these panels can significantly reduce unwanted noise in high-traffic areas Smart Acoustic Ceiling Tiles : These tiles not only absorb sound but also include sensors to monitor environmental conditions like temperature and humidity. They can actively adjust to optimize sound levels and even introduce white noise for a calming effect. MICROSOFT QUITEST ROOM Voice-Controlled Acoustic Panels : These panels integrate with voice assistants, allowing users to manage acoustic settings hands-free.

19. THAECOMPONENT OF THE THEATER Public \ Ardience Auditorium : is where the audience sits to watch the performance. It’s designed for good views and sound, and may include sections like the orchestra, balcony, or boxes Front of house(Lobby/Foyer) : in theatre refers to the public areas and staff that interact with the audience, such as the lobby, box office, seating area, and concessions. FOH staff include ushers, box office workers, and the house manager. It is separate from backstage or production areas (Back of House). Perfomers \ technician Stage : is where actors perform and the play takes place. It’s the main focus for the audience and comes in various types like proscenium, thrust, arena, and black box Back of house : includes all behind-the-scenes areas and staff that support the show, like backstage, dressing rooms, and technical crews. It’s essential for the production but not visible to the audience .

20. Ways to connect a group of theatres : By Lobby/Foyer Bylegs & borders A fly tower in theatre is a vertical space located above the stage that allows for the hanging and quick movement of scenery, props, or lighting. It is essential for managing large, heavy, or movable stage elements that need to be raised, lowered, or flown in and out of the performance area. Key Features: Height: The fly tower is typically several stories tall, providing ample space for flying objects (h:3h). Rigging System: It uses ropes, pulleys, and counterweights to safely raise and lower items useing two system : 1- Motorized Rise 2- Counterweight System Fly System : This is the rigging infrastructure that operates in the fly tower, allowing items like backdrops, set pieces, and lighting to be controlled from above the stage. A fire curtain : is a fire-resistant barrier that drops between the stage and audience during a fire. It blocks flames, smoke, and heat, helping to keep the audience safe and contain the fire to the stage area Legs and Borders (Backstage) in Theatre: Legs and borders are types of stage curtains used in theatre to shape the visible stage space and hide backstage areas. A cyclorama : Is a large, plain backdrop at the rear of the stage used for lighting effects or projections. It helps create the illusion of sky, space, or mood in a performance.

21. Acoustic Treatments Used in Theatre Sound Absorption Foam chair made of heavy fabrics Purpose : To reduce reflections and high frequencies, helping improve sound clarity. Used to absorb loud or unwanted sounds Sound Isolation : Soundproof walls double-glazed windows soundproof doors

22. Theatre Design Principles Main Components of a Theatre Stage House (Audience Area) Front of House (FOH): lobby, ticketing, restrooms, concessions Backstage: dressing rooms, storage, control room Front of Hous e (FOH) Occupies one-third of total theatre area Includes: lobby, concessions, restrooms, cloakroom, drop-off zone VIP drop-off for direct access Double-door vestibules to separate inside/outside air Box office separate from lobby, window opens outward Restrooms near foyer (2 if 1000 capacity; male and female) Viewing angles by seat position Seat position Horizontal viewing angle Vertical viewing angle Front row Max 110 30-60 Middle row 60 30-60 Back row 30 30-60 Facility Requirements by theatre capacity Facility Ratio per seat count Example for 1000 seats Restrooms 1 per 20-30 seats 34-50 units Accessible seats 6 per 300-500 seats 12 seats Cloakroom area 0.1m2 per seat 100m2 Safety and access standards Element requirement Evacuation time 2.5 minutes Elevator/escalator spacing 10-12 m Minimum aisle width As per local builiding code Door operation Double doors, open outwards
