LoginThe purpose of this study is to clarify the respiratory characteristics and productivity with wearing a mask, and to propose the indoor control strategy to maintain the thermal comfort.
Bibliographic database Airbase
AIRBASE is the Bibliographic Database of the AIVC. It contains publications and abstracts of articles related to energy efficient ventilation. Where possible, sufficient detail is supplied in the bibliographic details for users to trace and order the material via their own libraries. Topics include: ventilation strategies, design and retrofit methods, calculation techniques, standards and regulations, measurement methods, indoor air quality and energy implications etc. Entries are based on articles and reports published in journals, internal publications and research reports, produced both by university departments and by building research institutions throughout the world. AIRBASE has grown and evolved over many years (1979 to present day, over 22000 references and 16000 documents available online). For most of the references, the full document is also available online.
Access to the publications is free of charge.
The sudden global outbreak of coronavirus diseases 2019 (COVID-19) has infected over seventy million people and resulted in over one million deaths by the end of 2020, posing a significant threat to human health.
When designed and operated adequately, natural ventilation (NV) can improve the buildings’ energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality.
This study aims to use the WELL Building Standard (v2), an internationally recognised rating system for health & wellbeing in buildings, to perform a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the effect of wellbeing measures
Ventilation and source control (e.g. using low volatile organic compound (VOC) emitting materials) are two recommended approaches to control indoor air pollution and VOC’s in particular.
The present study investigates acoustic comfort in naturally ventilated residential buildings through an indoor soundscape approach.
Urbanization has led to systemic environmental factors that degrade air quality and microbial diversity, negatively impacting human health and wellbeing.
ASHRAE ’s Residential IAQ Guide, published in 2018, contains practical and actionable strategies directed at multiple audiences, including builders, designers, occupants, whether they rent or own, and managers of multifamily bui
Due to age-related physiological changes, older people are more vulnerable than young people to heat or cold conditions.
Humidity-based DCV systems have been widely used in France for 35 years and are considered as a reference system, including for low-energy residential buildings.
France is committed to minimizing its greenhouse gas emissions by focusing on the most energy-consuming sector, the residential and tertiary building sector.
The book of proceedings of the 13th International BUILDAIR Symposium "Airtight Buildings, Thermography and Ventilation Systems in Practice", held on June 2-3 2023 in Hannover, Germany. Contains 36 abstracts.
Purpose of the work
I would like to report on lessons learned in the field regarding two measurements at a special, particularly airtight and unusual building: A "concrete shell for CO2 storage in recycled concrete aggregates".
Purpose of the work
Ziel der Arbeit/Fragestellung
Wie groß ist der energetische Beitrag für energieeffiziente Gebäude aufgrund der Undicht-heit von Abluftklappen für Dunstabzugssysteme?
Ziel der Arbeit/Fragestellung
In Denmark, a manufacturer and dealer of vapor barrier membranes has observed unusual behavior. The membranes were installed in a small house and show that the system can be set up and be tight.
Weltweit steigt die Nachfrage nach Luftdichtheitsprüfungen von hohen Gebäuden mit einer Höhe ab ca. 100 m.
Worldwide, the demand for airtightness tests of tall buildings with a height of approximately 100 m is increasing.
