建筑內(nèi)環(huán)境質(zhì)量是公共衛(wèi)生的一個重要課題。該雜志的目的是在非工業(yè)建筑室內(nèi)環(huán)境所界定的廣闊區(qū)域內(nèi)，為報告原始研究成果提供一個場所。該雜志將以多學(xué)科內(nèi)容為國際重點。這些論文將反映該領(lǐng)域的廣泛興趣:健康影響、熱舒適監(jiān)測和建模、源特性、通風(fēng)和其他環(huán)境控制技術(shù)。研究結(jié)果將提供基本資料，讓設(shè)計師、大廈業(yè)主及營辦商為大廈住戶提供健康舒適的環(huán)境，以及為醫(yī)生提供如何處理與室內(nèi)環(huán)境有關(guān)的疾病的資料。

The quality of the environment within buildings is a topic of major importance for public health. The aim of the journal is to provide a location for reporting original research results in the broad area defined by the indoor environment of non-industrial buildings. The journal will have an international focus with multidisciplinary content. The papers will reflect the broad categories of interest in this field: health effects thermal comfort monitoring and modeling source characterization ventilation and other environmental control techniques. The research results will provide the basic information to allow designers building owners and operators to provide a healthy and comfortable environment for building occupants as well as providing medical practitioners information on how to deal with illnesses related to the indoor environment.
