A New Angle On Acoustic Baffles

We’re back at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, after working on another project there in early 2020. The structure, built in 2017, is made of trapezoidal shapes and off angles, including expansive pillars/columns around building. Our crew is tasked with installing  acoustic isolation baffles, covering these interior pillars with acoustical material. Our first phase of installation work will begin  in February between football and World Cup games. After that successful run, we will install more columns over the next two years.
