Indoor air quality (IAQ) at educational facilities in Faculty of Mechanical Engineering's building / Amar Ashraff Kamal Amiramzah

Good indoor air quality is desired for a healthy indoor environment. If the indoor air quality is poor, it can cause a variety health problem in short and long term. The purpose of this study was to determine the indoor air quality at the educational places such as lecture rooms, lecture hall room,...
