RIBA Gulf and Geberit Seminar Series - Module 3 Embedding Acoustics into Design

Due to popular demand after Module 1 and Module 2, the RIBA introduces the RIBA Gulf & Geberit Seminar Series - Module 3 on Embedding Acoustics into Design ; which has now been made available digitally to the membership across the Gulf.

The one hour webinar series open to the entire Gulf (United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Sultanate of Oman) is delivered as one hour sessions monthly with intervening gaps; allowing you time to reflect, revise and review.

You can attend all modules in the series thus future proofing your domain knowledge, or you can attend relevant modules only, if you need a specific understanding of each topic.

This module will provide delegates with an expert level learning opportunity on the principles of acoustic design for acoustically-optimised buildings. The seminar will enable professionals to achieve better outcomes and cover the following topics:

· What causes noise and the importance of acoustics in design

· Acoustic regulations

· How to design with acoustics in mind

· Acoustic data

· Live Q&A session

This seminar is classified as ‘General Knowledge’ and will provide delegates with a higher level of expertise through sharing practical applied knowledge and will contribute to RIBA members' CPD points for the year.
