The Covid-19 pandemic has brought major changes in education delivery in general. Architectural education, which aims to produce competent practitioners, needs to adapt to this condition. Architecture is not just about designing a building but also about the interaction between humans and their spatial and environmental settings. It is appropriate to develop architectural concepts following post-pandemic conditions. Understanding the concept of post-pandemic architecture can be done with digital tools so that learning is expected to be more effective. This work studies references that show the importance of post-pandemic architectural concepts and the use of digital tools in today's architectural education. The results of this work are expected to help academics develop post-pandemic architectural curricula.
The number of buildings that use air conditioner (AC), causing a lack of air change rate from the outside into the room or vice versa that can reduce indoor air quality. A bad indoor air quality is often give rise to complaints on its occupants called the "Sick Building Syndrome" (SBS). The presence of ventilation is expected to improve air quality and increase user comfort and wellness rooms. Therefore, the research on the influence of natural ventilation against sick building syndrome (SBS) is needed. This research was conducted with quantitative-descriptive methods with direct measurements of temperature, humidity and vloumetric air flow rate on samples of objects namely RSND clinic waiting room on the 2nd floor. As for analysis is carried out descriptively based on recommended standards. The purpose of doing this research is to know the influence of natural ventilation to the indoor air quality towards sick buiding syndrome. The result of this research show that the temperature, humidity and the clean air needs of the room doesn't meet the standarts, meanwhile the air change per hour meet the standarts on some spots. So, there is some influence of the use of natural ventilation that can improve the indoor air quality which is relating to sick building syndrome.
Particulate Matter (PM) is an air pollutant that harms human health. Therefore, there is a particular concern about reducing indoor air pollutants. Natural ventilation supplies clean air into the room to reduce indoor pollutants and create good air quality. This research aims to determine the influence of natural ventilation on the particulate matter’s concentration in the room. First, the physical indoor air quality, including particulate matter, was measured using research instruments to obtain the primary data in healthcare facility buildings. Quantitative analysis is then carried out following the applicable recommended standards. The results indicate that natural ventilation can affect particulate matter concentration in the room and play an essential role in reducing it. Therefore, a building must consider good ventilation design to create better indoor air quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
