Description Decoustics compound curved panels provide architects and designers with domed ceilings that have an acoustical solution to the problems of sound focussing and reflection normally associated with traditional hard surface finishes such as gypsum board, plaster, glass reinforced gypsum (GRG), fiber reinforced polyester (FRP), or wood. Dome shaped panels consist of compound, three-dimensional factory precurved units using one radius in all directions throughout the curve. Domed ceilings are made up of multiple, precisely engineered panel sections. Any one of several mounting methods can be employed depending on plenum access requirements, available substrate, plenum clearance, and panel joint preference e.g. closed reveal or open reveal only. Panels All Decoustics panels are custom fabricated and offered in a variety of types, sizes, thicknesses and finishes. Limitations Minimum radius is 10'-0" (3050 mm). Panel sizes are limited depending on radius of dome. Design Considerations The panels alone can form the dome without the need for a domed substrate. If, however, a domed substrate already exists, panels can be directly mounted to it. Dome shaped panels are only available with a fabric finish. Decoustics recommends 2" (50 mm) thick panels to be used in all dome areas. Providing the minimum radius requirement is met, it is possible to manufacture Dome Shaped panels consisting of more than one radius, e.g. elliptical. Depending on panel radius and thickness, exposed darting along edges may result with some fabric finishes which may or may not be prominent. However, darting is minimized when using Decoustics standard fabrics.
