St. Mary’s Learning Center

Because of it’s extremely high barrel ceilings, 28′ high at the apex, the vct floors and hard gypsum surfaces throughout the space, the main study areas of the building had a terrible echo problem, one of the worst cases we have ever run across. The solution was to furr out the upper sections of the exterior and interior walls with 2 x 4 wood framing, unfaced fiberglass insulation and 1″ Tectum panels which were pre-painted in a soft teal green with some panels a darker green for accent. We succeeded in obtaining a Noise Reduction Coefficient rating of .85 which is very high. The NRC rating of a standard 5/8″ painted gypsum wall is .05. The City of San Antonio was extremely happy with the results.
