Taking the Pulse of a Building

As the setting for experimentation, testing or analysis, a laboratory is a specialised environment. Whether the laboratory is at a university, manufacturing plant, hospital or private research facility, its operation must be reliable.

In every case proper ventilation and air quality is vital to safeguard people from potential exposure to chemicals and gases, biological contamination, airborne disease including viruses and bacteria, or years of valuable research could be at risk.

Designers and engineers of laboratories need to provide an indoor environment that safeguards researchers, visitors and other workers. At the same time the facility must operate to maintain efficient operation since considerable resources are often required to construct the facility.
