Calculation of RT60 Sabine equation

RT60 = 0.163 x V/A where V= volume of the room and A= effective absorbing area = Îą x S (surface area)

The fractional loss of sound waves due to absorption and transmittance is characterized by an absorption coefficient Îą, which can take values between 0 and 1, 1 being a perfect absorber.
