Sound attenuation is paramount in academic environments, especially in a multifunctional space like the Learning Commons. NW Aluminum 640 is the first floor supported folding glass wall able to achieve sound control ratings up to STC 45. This system combines sleek acoustically separated aluminum framing and specialized gasketing with sound-enhanced glass to achieve optimal performance. When all three systems are closed, the dividing glass wall partition allows for two classes to happen at once with little to no sound being transferred into one another. Outside the seminar rooms, students can read or complete assignments in a quiet, distraction-free environment.
