Indoor air quality (IAQ) is increasingly making front-page headlines, and the magnitude of the problem is just beginning to surface. Designed for engineers and architects, this reference on IAQ includes coverage of the control and assessment of asbestos, radon, carbon monoxide and other contaminants; investigative procedures; measurement and monitoring techniques; inspection and testing; and bacteriological and biological issues. Complete with information on Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) and Building Related Illness (BRI), plus troubleshooting techniques for new and existing construction, the book features an interdisciplinary perspective that provides a full treatment of IAQ.
