19 Objective of the Course: Acoustic design in architecture is the design process aimed at providing acoustic comfort conditions suitable for functions. Health and efficient buildings can be provided by means of providing he acoustic comfort conditions. Residences, offices, hotels, hospitals, sports halls, schools, theaters, opera-concert halls, transportation structures, religious buildings, shopping malls, entertainment centers, etc. All structures built for human use and covered by architecture are within the scope of architectural acoustics. The aim of the Architectural Acoustics II course is to enable students to learn the criteria that should be considered in order to provide acoustic comfort conditions and to produce appropriate solutions within the framework of building acoustics. The noise sources in the built environment, the effects of noise on people, criteria and standards, measurement techniques., detail design for noise control in volumes with different functions and between volumes are covered within this course. This couse will be conducted via face-to face. In the transfer of theoretical knowledge, computer presentations will we used. Occasionally studio work will be carried out with students and they will be asked to make presentations. At the end of the semester, each student will submit a graduation project which they will develop throut the semester with critiques.
20 Contribution of the Course to Professional Development The lecture will give students the ability to analyze the theoretical knowledge gained within the course and offers solutions to problems encountered in practice. It will give students the awareness of professional and ethical responsibility.
