| Module Aim(s): | In
modern society, people spend most of their time
in indoors. Since 1990s indoor air quality
(IAQ) engineering has become a multidisciplinary
practice, and IAQ has become one of the key
objectives of a healthy building design.
The module provides an overview of the indoor
air quality (IAQ) and its multi-disciplinary
nature in a built environment. Strategies
for controlling and maintaining good IAQ are
also presented for the planning and operation in
facility management. |
| Learning Outcomes: | On
completion of this Module, students are expected
to be able to: 1. relate the major factors affecting IAQ and the associated health impact and health risks of indoor air pollution; 2. identify parameters governing good IAQ for building environment design; 3. examine the design, operation and maintenance practices in relation with IAQ objectives; 4. investigate problematic buildings syndromes and recommend mitigation measures from an IAQ practitioner’s perspective; 5. incorporate IAQ management in an overall facility management scheme; and 6. cooperate with teammates in a multidisciplinary team to resolve emerging IAQ problems. |
