Kenn Centre Multipurpose Hall, Devon The Kenn Centre Multipurpose Hall was built with the intention of using it not only as a sports hall but also for seminars, classes, receptions and other activities. However, because of the poor acoustics with the space the hall was not suitable for the desired use. Most of the surfaces within the hall were reflective making it difficult to cope with speech or music wthin the environment due to high levels of reverberation. Screens at Work carried out a Reverberation Time Study of the hall, and found out that the values far exceeded the ideal. A combination of suspended ceiling panels and acoustic wall panels were used in order to solve the reverberation time and speech intelligibility problems. The client wanted to maintain a clean, aesthetically pleasing look in the hall, and was happy that the final solution was perfectly in line with these requirements. “The aesthetic and acoustic results are great. It has changed the hall from a sports hall into a contemporary professional meeting area as well!” Ian Harris, Account Manager at Martin Luck Group. www.frem.co.uk/screens Completed Installation of Ceiling and Wall Panels.
