Commercial
Pattison Media Radio Station
Building a high-performance radio station isn’t just about putting up walls and running cables, it’s about creating an environment where sound is clear, controlled, and optimized. For Pattison Media, we built a modern facility designed to optimize studio performance and audio quality. With advanced soundproofing, carefully engineered structures, and attention to every acoustic detail, we delivered a space that meets the specific demands of professional broadcasting.
Key Project Details
Why the Project was Needed:
Pattison Media needed a purpose-built space that would allow their radio station to operate at peak performance while meeting strict soundproofing and acoustic requirements. At Plan B, we knew standard commercial construction wouldn’t cut it; rooms within the workspace had to be designed to eliminate unwanted sound reverberation. To achieve this, every room was built at slightly off-angles (as opposed to the traditional 90° angles), preventing sound waves from leaking or distorting broadcasts. We also incorporated specialized framing components with rubber gaskets, which minimized vibrations. Since windows typically compromise sound containment, we installed double-glazed glass with an air gap to act as an acoustic barrier. Even the doors were designed for sound control, featuring automatic sweeps that drop down when closed to create a tight seal. Every detail was carefully considered for this commercial build project to deliver a space where sound quality comes first, because at Plan B, excellence comes first.
The Project Team:
Bringing this vision to life required the collaboration of Plan B’s expert construction team, skilled engineers, and the professionals at Pattison Media. From initial planning to execution, we worked closely to ensure that each element of the design met the stringent demands of a broadcasting environment. By integrating precision construction with innovative soundproofing techniques, we delivered a space that meets the highest industry standards.
Project Highlights:
- Rooms built at off-angles to prevent sound wave reverberation.
- Steel stud framing with rubber gaskets to absorb vibrations and minimize noise transfer.
- Double-glazed windows with an air gap to maintain acoustic integrity.
- Automatic door sweeps to create an airtight seal for optimal sound containment.
- Isolated ceiling connections to prevent noise transmission between spaces.
