Indoor environmental requirements for an animal research facility are driven by a complex of special objectives. In addition to the health and comfort of the workers, designers must address the living environment of the animals. This includes all thermal comfort variables, air contamination and daily lighting patterns. Improper animal environment can undermine research and destroy productivity. The seminar discusses basic objectives, current standards, traditional design approaches and new technical solutions.
