Abstract

A tool is constructed for Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) pre-assessment of pre-school buildings on the basis of a methodology that incorporates structured expert judgment and analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The tool calculates the level of indoor air pollutants such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Particulate Matter (PM10), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Volatile Organic compound (VOC) based guidelines. In particular, structured expert judgment criteria used to provide the most significant chemical contamination on health-related risks to children of pre-school. In addition, the AHP approach used for the classification of possible risk index of good, marginal or poor results from direct monitoring measurements. Three selected pre-school are used to demonstrate the use of the proposed tool as case studies.
