Abstract
Building indoor environmental quality (IEQ) surveys such as that developed by the Center for the Built Environment (CBE) at the University of California at Berkeley are currently collecting data from many buildings around the country and the world. Other entities with a vested interest in the operation of the United States building stock are also collecting acoustical data. While these data sets are publically available, they have not been analyzed by the acoustical community. As the concept of sustainability grows, the importance of “proving” that IEQ in buildings including acoustics performs as designed will also grows. This paper will review some of the available acoustical survey data sets including the Environmental Protection Agency’s Building Assessment Survey and Evaluation Survey (BASE) and National Center for Education Statistics’ Public School Principals Report.
