The Indoor Air Quality
Building Education and Assessment Model (I-BEAM),
released in 2002, is
a guidance tool designed for use by building professionals
and others interested in indoor air quality in commercial
buildings. I-BEAM updates and expands EPA's Building
Air Quality guidance (the BAQ is still available via the web
at
www.epa.gov/iaq/largebldgs/baqtoc.html) and is designed
to be a comprehensive state-of-the-art guidance for managing
IAQ in commercial buildings. |

Building Air Quality: A Guide for Building Owners and
Facility Managers
The Building
Air Quality, developed by the EPA and the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health, provides practical
suggestions on preventing, identifying, and resolving indoor
air quality (IAQ) problems in public and commercial
buildings. This guidance provides information on factors
affecting indoor air quality; describes how to develop an
IAQ profile of building conditions and create an IAQ
management plan; describes investigative strategies to
identify causes of IAQ problems; and provides criteria for
assessing alternative mitigation strategies, determining
whether a problem has been resolved, and deciding whether to
consult outside technical specialists. |
