hard (reflective), and fragmented. They knew that this type wall would reflect and reinforce the sound energy in a random and diffuse manner, increasing the reverberation, blending sounds, and adding brightness to music.
So, Architects Larson, Playter, Smith, Ltd., designed the walls in a series of vertical panels, sub-divided into bands of broken planes. In the larger concert hall, these panels are separated by pilasters containing pockets for acoustical draperies and lighting equipment. Draperies may be drawn into the pockets to increase reverberation, or may be drawn out to cover the walls and reduce reverberation, depending upon the effect desired. Robert Brennan and Fred Buerki, Mequon, Wis., served as theater equipment consultants.
Carefully drawn and dimension details and elevations are imperative if the architect is to transfer his ideas accurately to the men who must build such a wall, IMI points out. In this case, the general foreman fabricated full-size plywood profile templates from the drawings. Minor adjustments were made in these templates to eliminate the small pieces of brick and shelf angles or lintels.
Today, the building stands as a showcase for the arts in Wisconsin. It is also a fine example of the ability of mason contractors and masonry craftsmen to use an age-old product in a flexible, modern way to create a structure of outstanding contemporary design and function.
THE PAY BOARD IS CLAMPING DOWN ON THE PAYMENT of deferred wage hikes. It has found widespread employer noncompliance on advance-notice standards. For previously negotiated labor contracts covering 1,000 or more employees, the Board required 60 days notice before a 7% or more wage boost was paid. Records show that many firms didn't give notice, or were late in complying.
Now the Board has extended the advance-notice requirement to 90 days. An employer providing late notice must wait this long before paying the increase. What is more, fines will be levied against employers not meeting the rules.
