2019 Novel coronavirus (CoviD-19) pandemic: Built environment considerations to reduce transmission
Leslie Dietz,Patrick F. Horve,David A. Coil,Mark Fretz,Jonathan A. Eisen,Kevin Van Den Wymelenberg +5 more
TL;DR: This paper synthesizes this microbiology of the BE research and the known information about SARS-CoV-2 to provide actionable and achievable guidance to BE decision makers, building operators, and all indoor occupants attempting to minimize infectious disease transmission through environmentally mediated pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revealing occupancy patterns in an office building through the use of occupancy sensor data
TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of occupancy sensor data for a large commercial, multi-tenant office building is presented, where occupancy diversity factors for private offices and summarizes the same for open offices, hallways, conference rooms, break rooms, and restrooms in order to better inform energy simulation parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of occupant interaction with window blinds: A literature review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the energy implications of blind use, blind occlusion and rate of change from field studies, specific quantitative measures influencing user blind control, investigations into user acceptance of automated blind control and finally conclusions and knowledge gaps are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Critical Investigation of Common Lighting Design Metrics for Predicting Human Visual Comfort in Offices with Daylight
TL;DR: The bounded borderline between comfort and discomfort is introduced, and preliminary visual comfort design criteria are proposed for several existing metrics.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Luminance Distribution Patterns on Occupant Preference in a Daylit Office Environment
TL;DR: The most consistent and effective metrics to explain variability in subjective responses were found to be the ‘mean luminance of the glare sources’, and DGP consistently performed better than DGI, confirming previous findings.
