Air Tightness of New Australian Residential Buildings

Modeling Housing Demand for New Residential Buildings in Urban Areas

T his study investigates the factors affecting the demand for new residential buildings in urban areas of Iran during 1976-2010. The demand function for new residential buildings in urban areas was estimated and then the existence of a long-run relationship among variables of this function was studied using the Bounds testing of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag Co-integration procedure. The t...

The Form of Residential Buildings on Local Winds: Air Pollution Reduction

 This article addresses the analysis of the mechanism of natural air flow around the residential buildings  and the effect of the form of residential buildings on air flow among four building forms in Tehran. The aim of this research is to study the effect of the form of residential buildings on the mechanism of natural air flow with the purpose of optimally utilizing clean air. The research me...

A Study of Air-tightness in Australian High-level Bio-containment Facilities

To assess the air-tightness of physical containment level 3 (PC3) bio-containment facilities in Australia, the seal integrity of 18 PC3 facilities was quantified by means of an equilibrium pressure air-tightness test conducted at positive pressure. The results of the test, which measured the leakage of air from the facility, indicate a variation in the air-tightness of the tested facilities whi...
