Abstract
Much has been written about the Undulating Ceiling at the lecture hall of the Vyborg Library. Alvar Aalto himself claimed the ceiling to be "ninety-nine per cent acoustically perfect" and the sketches showing the acoustical considerations behind the ceiling-design is often reproduced. But how did it actually function? Did the wave form have the claimed acoustical avantages or could the ceiling as well have been horisontal. Comprehensive acoustical investigations have been carried out including acoustical measurements in a 1:20 scale model and calculations in a 3D computer model of the lecture hall.
