Abstract

This study analyzed the airborne infection risk of various building types by simulation. The airborne infection risk reflected the occupancy pattern and occupants’ physical Characteristics. The comparative study explicitly shows the exposure time to airborne pathogen determined by occupancy pattern significantly impacts to the airborne infection risk. In kindergarten, children’s increased breathing rate and low infiltration rate of building can cause increased airborne infection risk. Elderly facilities show the highest airborne infection risks for the longest residency hours and low ventilation rates.
