Room Updates

Hey guys, this is the current design without acoustic treatment. I'll try not to irritate everyone to death by minimizing the questions.
Room dimensions are 34'x20'x15' (drop ceiling, true structure ceiling is metal roof at 30ft)


Main questings at this time - There will be a wall constructed that seperates this 40' long space into 2 rooms. The slant walls you see in the front hold soffit mounted speakers.

1) Is it more beneficial to construct a straight wall (of drywall) perpendicular from side to side, making the corner bass trap with 6" of 3pcf fiberglass and supporting wood for the soffit,
or
Is it better to build the angle with framed drywall, then cover the surface with the 6" of fiberglass?

2) Can you recommend an RT60 time to shoot for in my ongoing calculations? Or is this a crazy question?

Also, to those who will say this... yes an acoustic consultant will validate or make appropriate changes to my design before we build. Just trying to be as economic as I can.
