Abstract:This paper brings to discussion the sound insulation of a special type of glazing by studying a S(inusoidal)shaped curved glass. This has been used in a concert hall (under construction) in Portugal with a forwardthinking Rem Koolhaas's architecture requiring non-standard solutions: glazing with very large dimensions (22 m by 15 m) and each "S-glass panel" with a wavelength of about 1.0 m and an amplitude of about 0.35 m will be applied as a double facade. The restrictions in ISO 104-3 laboratory measurements … Show more
