ABD Engineering & Design is partnering with Opsis Architecture for the Oregon State University – Cascades Student Success Center. Many of the acoustical challenges come from the flexible use spaces for study and tutoring, advising and counseling, arts presentation, informal gathering and student involvement.
The wide-open spaces throughout required detailed analysis and recommendations for room acoustics, noise isolation, and mechanical noise control. ABD worked with Opsis to keep the beautiful mass timber structure exposed while also designing the spaces to be acoustically comfortable.
