Effects of doubled glazed facade on energy consumption, thermal comfort and condensation for a typical office building in Singapore

Buildings in Singapore use fully glazed-façade systems because of their daylight advantages of low consumption of lighting energy and the aesthetic satisfaction of full external views. High energy consumption, thermal discomfort, and issues with noise control are some of the disadvantages associated with single-glazed façade systems. Double-glazed façade ventilation systems are believed to address these issues.

Noise in acute patient care areas

1985
Research in Nursing & Health
Journal Article
Issue 3
Volume 8
Pages 283-91
Author(s): Hilton, B.A.
The paper begins by defining noise (as sound higher than that recommended for hospitals and considered undesirable or intolerable by patients) and questioning noise levels in hospitals and how patients are affected by it. The author cites studies between 1961 and 1981 that showed that ill people had a lower tolerance for sound than healthier people, sounds in hospitals were higher than recommended levels and tended to be a stress factor for patients, and that when sound was considered to be noise, it led to stress, which in turn could delay healing.
