T60 is the unit used to measure reverberation time, which is the time it takes for sound to decay by 60 decibels in a space. This metric is critical for achieving the Acoustic Performance credit under LEED, as it ensures that spaces are designed to provide optimal acoustic environments that enhance occupant comfort and productivity.

T60 is the one for reverberation time!

I’m really unsure about this one. I feel like I’ve seen similar questions, but I can’t recall the specifics.

Hz is about frequency, and dBA is for sound levels, so they can't be right. I’m leaning towards T60.

I remember practicing a question about STC and how it relates to sound transmission, but I don't think it measures reverberation time.

I think T60 is the right one for measuring reverberation time, but I’m not completely sure.
