Acoustic Treatment for Shooting Ranges: Built to Withstand the Blast - Acoustic Control with Certified Safety

We provide an effective acoustic treatment for shooting ranges strategy for indoor shooting ranges, addressing high SPL impulse noise, prolonged reverberation, speech clarity, and regulatory compliance. The proposed design leverages Himalyan Acoustics proprietary material systems to ensure safety, comfort, and acoustic performance.

1. Acoustic Challenges: Shooting ranges are exposed to gunfire noise levels between 150–165 dB SPL, which create hazardous reverberant fields and impulse reflections within enclosed structures.

Key challenges include for acoustic treatment for shooting ranges:

High-energy impulse reflections from concrete, steel, and glass Excess reverberation time (RT60) impacting speech communication Structure-borne vibrations and noise leakage to adjacent zones Compliance with OSHA, NIOSH, and local building codes.

Design Goals

Reduce RT60 to 1.0 seconds in small to medium enclosed ranges Control first reflections near firing positions Improve speech clarity across instruction zones Contain and isolate sound energy to prevent noise pollution Utilize Class-A fire-rated, washable, and impact-resilient materials.

Performance Expectations

Impulse noise reduction: Peak pressure dampened by ~15–25 dB(A) Reverberation time: Target RT60 between 0.5–0.9 seconds (mid band) Speech clarity index (C50): Enhanced in command and control zones STC values: Partition assemblies rated up to STC 49.

All materials tested per ISO 354 (absorption) and ISO 717-1 (isolation)

Compliance & Safety

OSHA/NIOSH noise exposure compliant Fire-rated materials (Class A) throughout Custom configurations for military, police, or private shooting facilities Bulletproofing, ventilation silencers, and vibration damping available on request.

Summary

This acoustic treatment for shooting ranges package is designed for performance and safety in firearm training environments. Himalyan Acoustics' solutions offer: Modular & ruggedized installation Long-term durability in high SPL zones Health-conscious material choices (non-fiberglass, no dust emission) Measurable improvement in shooter comfort and acoustic clarity.
