University of Ottawa SITE and Desmarais Buildings

Located in the heart of Ottawa, the University of Ottawa Campus is an important contributor to the architectural diversity of the city. The S.I.T.E. building, designed by Ron Keenburg is a signature building at the entrance to the University precinct. We provided acoustic design for the innovative core slab design and acoustic performance design for large lecture halls and classrooms.

The Desmarais Building, designed by Moriyama Teshima Architects, is located on a very busy traffic route. The building posed particular challenges for our acoustic design of multiple lecture halls with high intelligibility requirements and requirements for low mechanical noise.
