Summary Article (Draft 1)

In the book "Guidelines for Good Indoor Air Quality in Office Premises", NEA (1996) believes that buildings "should be designed with regard to the pollution which may arise within the building." "The ACMV system (Air Conditioning and Mechanical Ventilation System)," should be arranged in a manner to reduce the spread of contaminants. NEA also mentions that the materials and surfaces of the building should not emit any harmful chemicals, while the placement of outdoor air intakes should not be situated near sources of pollution. Buildings should be constructed in ways that prevents contaminants from entering. To ensure contaminants do not enter, the air ducts should be fitted for easy maintenance and inspections as well as being built with materials that produces lesser friction.

  1. Hi Jarod,

    Overall, we think it was a good summary. Content is good. For organisation, Reference can be improved, we're not sure about the reference is the right one. Language Use just a bit of mistake, arranged is not really a exact word for design. We think this summary is close to a competent phrase.
