Acoustical and ventilation performance of school building near airport area in relation to Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ)

Buildings that prioritize natural ventilation have problems dealing with airborne noise. The Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) disturbance will be considered in the school design located around the airport. As a result, the disorder can cause Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). Thus, the aspect of natural ventilation and noise (acoustics) is a problem that must be compromised. This paper will report the results of measuring the IEQ parameters of ventilation and acoustic, indicated by changes in the ratio of window openings in an elementary school located closest to the airplane runway. The results show that the top-hung type opening with a ratio of the half from the maximum opening produces airflow and noise that still does not meet the IEQ requirements. Hence the aspect of temperature and humidity and CO₂ levels still meets the IEQ requirements.
