The Effect of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Towards Occupants’ Psychological Performance in Office Buildings
Indoor air quality (IAQ) in a building is a very important element to ensure the health and comfort level of the building occupants. This is because work productivity may be interrupted due to the polluted environmental condition and bad indoor air quality. Both factors may lead to bad health and physical condition and consequently to bad work performance. The study presents the understanding a...
متن کاملEvaluation of Indoor Air Quality Screening Strategies: A Step-Wise Approach for IAQ Screening
Conducting a full indoor air quality (IAQ) assessment in air-conditioned offices requires large-scale material and manpower resources. However, an IAQ index can be adopted as a handy screening tool to identify any premises (with poor IAQ) that need more comprehensive IAQ assessments to prioritize IAQ improvements. This study proposes a step-wise IAQ screening protocol to facilitate its cost-eff...
متن کاملIndoor Air Quality of Office Buildings in the Helsinki Area
Indoor air quality (IAQ) was investigated in 19 open-plan offices and 30 office rooms in order to compare the differences in these two different types of office environments. No moisture or mold problems had been reported from the present buildings, but the employees had complained about the IAQ. The results revealed only slight differences in the IAQ of the two different types of office enviro...
متن کاملThe Effects of Indoor Air Quality (iaq) on Performance, Behaviour and Productivity
This paper describes a series of laboratory simulation experiments with exposures of up to 5 hours in which the performance of simulated office work was increased by removing common indoor sources of air pollution (floor-coverings and personal computers), or by increasing the rate at which clean outdoor air was supplied per person. Outdoor air supply rates from 3-30 L/s/p were studied. The resu...
متن کاملAir Quality and Thermal Comfort in Office Buildings: Results of a Large Indoor Environmental Quality Survey
This paper presents results of over 34,000 survey responses to air quality and thermal comfort questions in 215 buildings in US, Canada, and Finland. Results show that 80% or more of the occupants expressed satisfaction with their thermal comfort in only 11% of the buildings surveyed. Air quality scores were somewhat higher, with 26% of buildings having 80% or occupant satisfaction. With respec...
