Building Systems for Designers – Indoor Air Quality
As buildings become more tightly controlled environments, indoor air quality (IAQ) and its effects on our health become an increasingly critical issue. Today, there are more than 80,000 synthetic chemicals in use, most of which have not been tested individually or in combination for their effects on human health. Also, the materials used in building, furnishing, and maintaining a building potentially can contain toxins that will effect air quality. In this course, we will take a look at the issue, materials, and contaminants that can cause poor indoor air quality. We will look at the was to counter act these issues and create a good indoor air quality through ventilation and air cleaners.
