Characterizing the Speech Privacy in Open Plan Office Based of ISO 3382-3:2012, % ALCONS, and Privacy Index

An open-plan Offices is a type of office with no wall or full partition that separates between the workstations or work desks.

Acoustical problems that are often found are related with the ability to communicate among co-workers without any noise interference and noise disturbances as well as lack of speech privacy. Therefore, further research is required to find the optimal speech privacy distance. The Research methods that are used refers to ISO 3382-3 (2012), Besides that, it also used privacy index method and % ALcons is also used to analyze the speech privacy in every workstation.

Identification Diffuse Level in Open-Plan Office with Green Building Concept Study Case at Government Office

Audibility characterization of diffusion field is to identify geometric formations and room elements which influence the diffusion properties of the sound field is significantly based on the relationship between objective and subjective parameters.

In this study, the differences in the characteristics of auditory perception from several workstations with different diffuse nature, which resulted in the conclusion that the geometry and layout of the elements of the room will determine the nature of the distribution of sound in space. In an open office space footprint, conversation needed to be spreaded evenly to all parts of the room, so that information that is important for all employees can be conveyed properly.
