Indoor air quality in the sustainability assessment through en16309

indoor air quality health & comfort aspect in the social performance assessment of buildings EN16309 (standardisation by CEN TC350 WG5)

description

INDOOR AIR QUALITY can be described and measured in indicators in specifying the buildings social performance contributing to the aspect HEALTH and COMFORT. The presentation positions the INDOOR AIR QUALITY in the USE STAGE of the building: the indoor air quality for the building USER is of importance during during "regular" use but also during maintenance, repair and replacement activities, etc. A check list approach allows a comprehensive assessment per information module on the basis of a building specific and use specific scenario.

EN16309 SUSTAINABILITY OF CONSTRUCTION WORKS — ASSESSMENT OF SOCIAL

PERFORMANCE OF BUILDINGS — METHODOLOGY

Indoor Air Quality – a social performance aspect

How and where is this taken into account

in the sustainability assessment of buildings ?

Page 3: Indoor air quality in the sustainability assessment through en16309

Sustainability assessment

• Prerequisite:

compliance to meet present and future needs on functional and

technical demands

• Based on 3 dimensions:

• Based on the building LIFE CYCLE: 3 life cycle stages

– `Before use stage`, `Use stage` and `After use stage`

Sustainability

A prerequisite for sustainability are the 6 Basic Requirements for Construction Works

• Without meeting the functional needs there is no sustainability

INDOOR AIR QUALITY

Page 39: Indoor air quality in the sustainability assessment through en16309

7.4.3.1. Building fabric-related characteristics of indoor air quality

The building fabric-aspect of indoor air quality depends on a wide range of factors: e.g. .............. The indoor air quality can also depend on the presence of other products (furniture, fixtures and fittings, floor coverings etc.) that are not building-related.

For the assessment of indoor air quality the following indicators shall be assessed:

• Substances and particles which are regulated and/or stated in the clients brief. Additional substances and particles can be assessed where appropriate.

• Concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) above the external ambient CO2 concentration [ppm] according to EN 15251;

• Ventilation rate in accordance to EN 15251 [e.g. l/s/person or l/s/m3];

• Risk of mould growth based on internal surface temperature and relative humidity according to EN-ISO 13788;

7.4.3.2 User and control system-related aspects of indoor air quality

The level of controllability of the indoor air quality per room and of the building shall be

assessed according to the following measures:

• Is there control of ventilation at a building level? [yes/no];

• Is there control of ventilation by users with automatic control and/or with manual

override by users? [yes/no].

• Is there measurement and display of CO2-level in individual rooms ? [yes/no];

• Is there measurement and display of humidity in the building

and/or individual rooms ? [yes/no];

For each of the above indicators the selected basis of design shall be briefly stated

together with reference to supporting documents.
