dc.description.abstract | This study took place at Dalhousie University on Studley Campus; the purpose of
this feasibility analysis was to determine if Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and aesthetics issues
are present in the Life Science Centre (LSC) and to determine the usefulness and benefit
of a greenwall in addressing these issues. The study used the triangulation technique of
research, which included interviews, case studies and a survey. Based on research and
information gathered we determined that there were IAQ and aesthetics issues
negatively affecting the LSC, and that benefits derived from the implementation of a
greenwall would help to mitigate these issues. However, due to lack of information
concerning possible economic costs or benefits derived from a greenwall, we were forced
to conclude that further study is necessary. | en_US |
