This document discusses factors that affect architectural acoustics, including reverberation time, loudness, echo effects, structure-borne sound, focusing of sound waves, and resonance. It explains how each factor impacts sound quality and lists remedies such as using sound absorbing or reflecting materials on walls and ceilings to optimize reverberation time and loudness or prevent echoes and focusing of sound waves. Modeling acoustic effects in a water tank can help design actual halls to avoid unwanted resonance.
