The ceiling, in combination withthe high volume of open space, makesthe building high risk for echoes andreverberation. Thorburn Associates wascalled on to provide acoustical detailsfor this space, the last and only newconstruction component of thecampus’s multi‐phased renovation.In addition to the library space,ThorburnAssociatesprovidedacoustical details for the classroomwing of the new building.The Cesar Chavez Education Centerrepresents more than a new school inan overcrowded school district. Thedesign is a model CHPS (Collaborativefor High Performance Schools) school.By addressing the finish materials, textbook storage and student locations,acoustical challenges were avoided.The required amount of soundisolation for the rooms was providedbyspecificwallandceilingconstructions, along with window,door, and duct/conduit penetrationdetails. High levels of sound isolationwere included in the design to helpensure that noise from the classroomswill not affect the adjacent spaces.Acoustically, the facility faced steepchallenges, with Bay Area Rapid Transit(BART) tracks less than 400 feet fromthe nearest classroom on one side andthe very busy International Boulevardflanking the school on the other side.To reduce sound from outside sources,additional layers of gypsum board onthe walls and ceiling provided a higherlevel of noise attenuation.ADDITIONAL PROJECTS Andrews Elementary School – Andrews, SCApex Middle School Auditorium – Apex, NCArchbishop Mitty High School – San Jose, CAAtkins High School – Winston‐Salem, NCBertie High School Renovation – Windsor, NCCHPS Compliance Model Classroom – Richmond, CAChristopher High School – Gilroy, CACumberland County High School – Fayetteville, NCDaniels Middle School – Raleigh, NCDiamond High School – Anchorage, AKEast Forsyth High School – Forsyth, NCFranklin Academy – Wake Forest, NCSAN FRANCISCOHORBURNLOS ANGELESA SSOCIATESACOUSTICAL, TECHNOLOGY, AND LIGHTING DESIGN ORLANDOGlenn High School Auditorium – Kernersville, NCGuilford Northern High School – Greensboro, NCHarnett County High School – Fayetteville, NCHobbton Elementary School – Newton Grove, NCKern High School – Lake Isabella, CALeroy Martin Middle School – Raleigh, NCLynbrook High School – San Jose, CAMercy High School – San Francisco, CAMission San Jose High School – San Jose, CAMt.
