Considering these data, indoor residential environments have a direct influence on human health, especially considering that, in developing countries, significant levels of indoor pollution make housing unsafe, having an impact on the health of inhabitants. Therefore, housing is a key health factor for people all over the world, and various parameters, such as air quality, ventilation, hygrothermal comfort, lighting, physical environment, and building efficiency, can contribute to healthy architecture, as well as to the conditions that can result from the poor application of these parameters. The articles in this Special Issue thus address issues concerning indoor environmental quality (IEQ), which is described, more simply, as the conditions inside a building. This includes air quality, but also access to daylight and views, pleasant acoustic conditions, and occupant control over lighting and thermal comfort. IEQ also includes the functional aspects of the space, such as whether the layout provides easy access to tools and people when needed and whether there is sufficient space for the occupants. Building managers and operators can increase building occupant satisfaction by considering all aspects of IEQ rather than focusing on temperature or air quality alone. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aair temperature measurements 610 $aairtightness 610 $aarchitecture 610 $abasalt fiber 610 $abasalt waste aggregate 610 $abuilding evaluation 610 $aclimate change 610 $aCOVID-19 610 $adata analysis 610 $aeducational buildings 610 $aefficient buildings 610 $aenergy efficiency 610 $aepidemiology 610 $afeed-forward neural networks 610 $afique 610 $afly ash 610 $afunctional adequacy 610 $ageopolymer 610 $agreen architecture 610 $ahuman-centered 610 $aIEQ 610 $ain-situ measurements 610 $aindoor air quality 610 $alean construction 610 $alean manufacturing 610 $alearning space 610 $amechanical properties 610 $aMgO-based cement 610 $amicroclimate 610 $amodular construction 610 $anatural ventilation 610 $anursing homes 610 $aplace attachment 610 $aquality air 610 $asocial interaction 610 $asocial participation 610 $astatistics 610 $asustainability 610 $asustainability architecture 610 $asustainable building 610 $asustainable materials 610 $athermal comfort 610 $athermal conductivity 610 $athermal insulation 610 $athermogravimetry 610 $aurban environment 610 $aurban heat island 610 $aurban models 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aGonzález Lezcano$b Roberto Alonso$4edt$01319356 702 $aGonzález Lezcano$b Roberto Alonso$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910566457903321 996 $aIndoor Environment Quality and Health in Energy-Efficient Buildings$93037201 997 $aUNINA
