Easy - Fast - Visual

Can you solve all the acoustic insulation levels in a building? Can you tell whether the acoustic insulation levels are OK in every room?  Could you optimize the acoustic insulation? How long would it take?Assessing large buildings is not an acoustic problem anymore - we have created the tool allowing you to concentrate on pure acoustic performance.

The working philosophy is simple: SONarchitect has 6 working modes. Complete these six simple stages and get your results.

Specify the geometry

Just sketch the plan of every different floor in the building, optionally using a template from a DXF file.
You do not have to tell SONarchitect which are rooms and how, it will automatically detect every room as you draw. Every line becomes a wall, every cross a junction, and every closed shape a new room.

Aid tools allow you to draw normals, specific angles and lengths, ortho lines, and the sticky cursor will help you with clean shapes and correct junctions, also between different floors.

3D Model

A 3D model of your building is created, where you can verify the geometry of your building, and also virtualize some of the slabs to get complex volumic geometries. The 3D model can be inspected at any moment during the drawing of the floor plans to asses the progress of the project. Floors having the same plan and building solutions are specified just by a repetition number that creates repeated floors in the 3D model.

Assign materials

At any time you can assign building solutions from the customizable database to any element in any floor. The building solutions can be changed at any time, before or after the computation of the acoustic insulation.

Room Specs

You can identify at any time the enclosures of any floor, and tell SONarchitect the use of each room in the building. This determines the aplicable legislation limits to verify the building compliance. Room identification and use can be changed at any time, before or after the computation, without any additional hassle.
