Fundamentals of IEQ and Occupant Needs

In this webinar Prof Marcel Schweiker introduces the link between occupant needs and elements of the indoor built environment, between sensory inputs and perception, and between perception and behaviour. He reviews common practices in standards and guidelines and closes with a discussion of open questions that require ongoing work.

This webinar is based on Chapter 2 of Occupant-Centric Simulation-Aided Building Design which can be downloaded for free: https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/o....
