Two significant design strategies for mitigating building energy consumption are daylight redirection and solar energy harvesting. Effective daylighting implementation enhances the amount of useful natural light within a space and offsets the need fo

This article presents results from an experimental study to ascertain the transmissibility of the SARS-CoV-2 virus between rooms in a building that are connected by a central ventilation system. Respiratory droplet surrogates made of mucus and virus

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems are responsible for a significant share of the energy consumed in commercial buildings. While energy system retrofits have been found to reduce buildings' carbon footprint substantially, these

Measuring and tracking building energy use and other data is essential for cities, utilities, and service providers. Currently, buildings are conceived as "places/locations" and therefore are identified with a street address or with a single geograph

Increasing amounts of data are available from lighting and other building systems. In commercial buildings, these data can be used to improve system and energy performance, detect and diagnose faults, and facilitate maintenance. Building data are not

Here we evaluate the transport of respiratory droplets that carry SARS-CoV-2 through central air handling systems in multiroom buildings. Respiratory droplet size modes arise from the bronchioles representing the lungs and lower respiratory tract, th

A growing number of cities are adopting energy use benchmarking ordinances, which require building owners report their buildings' total energy usage annually. It also requires that utilities supply aggregated building-level monthly energy consumption

A dynamic liquid filled prismatic louver (LFPL) facade is evaluated both as a daylight redirecting and an energy harvesting system. The LFPL performs daylight redirection due to its transparent daylight redirecting geometry, whereas it performs therm

The COVID-19 pandemic has raised concern of viral spread within buildings. Although the near-field transmission and the infectious spread within individual rooms are well studied, the impact of aerosolized spread of SARS-CoV-2 via air handling system
