Abstract:
1. A method to erect an arrangement of build-in acoustical panels and bridger structures over a range of wall spans of existing structural walls comprising: a. juxtaposing a desired number of said acoustical panels along a first desired wall span of a first existing structural wall, said wall having a total width, wherein one or more gaps), each providing a varying gap span, are set between edges of said adjacent acoustical panels; and b. positioning one of said bridger structures, comprising a column bracket positioned within a column over each of said one or more gaps to cover each of said one or more gaps; wherein a total width of said one or more gaps is based on the difference between said first desired wall span and the combined widths of the acoustical panels that extend across said first desired wall span, and whereby a particular arrangement of build-in acoustical panels and bridger structures is capable of extending across said range of wall spans without a need to cut one or more said acoustical panels to adjust said panels' width(s).
