Question 1

What is ध्वनि अवशोषक पैनल (Acoustic Panels)?

Accepted Answer

ध्वनिक पैनल (Dhvanik Painal), or sound-absorbing panels, are composite materials employed for acoustic control, historically and contemporarily [1]. Modern panels, often composed of mineral wool, fiberglass, or recycled materials, exhibit densities ranging from 20-150 kg/m³ and Noise Reduction Coefficients (NRC) of 0.7-1.0. In Indic heritage architecture, analogous structures, though not identical in composition, served similar functions. Traditional Sabha Mandir interiors utilized materials like densely woven textiles (वस्त्र – vastra) and intricately carved wooden screens (जाली – jaali) to diffuse sound. The Maurya and Gupta periods saw early applications of acoustic principles in assembly halls. Sourcing of raw materials, such as wool from Himalayan regions and timber from forests across the subcontinent, was crucial. Conservation necessitates careful material selection, considering compatibility with existing structures and minimizing impact on heritage fabric. Restoration efforts require analysis of original materials and techniques to ensure authentic replication. Durability depends on environmental factors and material degradation, necessitating regular inspection and maintenance.
