The Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC) in collaboration with the ASHRAE Singapore Chapter (ASC) is organising a 1 ½ -day workshop to be held on April 18-19, 2024 in Singapore. The workshop will be led by experts from the AIVC and the ASHRAE Singapore Chapter. It is intended for engineers, architects, and other professionals who want to learn more about ventilation, IEQ and sustainability.

The event will take place at the Surbana Jurong Campus.

The workshop main themes include:

  1. Optimising Indoor Air Quality for Climate Resilience: Ventilation Strategies in the Face of the Climate Crisis
  2. Reducing Carbon Footprints: The Role of Energy-efficient Ventilation Technologies
  3. Smart Building Automation for Climate-Adaptive Ventilation

The workshop will be followed by a technical site visit on April 19.
