Architectural Acoustics is a book written by Clifford Melville Swan and first published in 1921. The book is a comprehensive study of the science of acoustics as it relates to architecture, and is considered a seminal work in the field of architectural acoustics. The book is divided into three main parts. The first part provides an overview of the principles of acoustics, including the physics of sound, the properties of sound waves, and the measurement of sound. The second part focuses on the design of spaces for optimal acoustics, including the design of concert halls, theaters, churches, and other public spaces. The third part covers the practical application of acoustics in building construction, including the selection of materials and the placement of acoustic treatments.Throughout the book, Swan emphasizes the importance of acoustics in the design of buildings, and provides practical advice for architects and engineers on how to achieve optimal acoustics in their designs. The book is illustrated with numerous diagrams and photographs, and includes a glossary of technical terms.Architectural Acoustics remains an important reference work for architects, acousticians, and engineers, and is considered a classic in the field of architectural acoustics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
