The Influence of Favorable Microclimatic Conditions on the Life Expectancy of People and Buildings

Abstract

The research examines how beneficial local climate factors impact lifespan for humans while affecting building preservation periods. The growing worldwide focus on sustainable energy usage and productivity requires architects to establish comfortable interior environmental conditions as their primary design priority. This study analyzes critical environmental factors including temperature, humidity, air flow and carbon dioxide measurements because these elements impact human health and structure lifespan with equal importance. Modern energy-efficient technologies have not solved the dilemma between maintaining air-tight construction methods and sufficient ventilation requirements for preventing building-related health problems and moisture-induced structural damage.

The research identifies a critical understanding deficiency about combining energy efficiency methods with ideal microclimatic management in areas which experience wide climatic fluctuations. The researchers used qualitative methods which included literature reviews in combination with case studies and energy-efficient building field observations. Modern energy-aligning windows and insulating technique promote thermal efficiency but creating indoor air quality issues unless they include effective ventilation mechanisms.

Optimal microclimate conditions lead to enhanced human fitness and job performance together with building resistance which shows why a proper balance between energy-saving and comfortable indoor spaces is essential. Research results support the need for introducing ventilating systems as mandatory components in sealed building designs for extended sustainability purposes. A comprehensive understanding from this study directs the development of architectural guidelines as well as construction laws and urban design standards that create buildings which maintain energy standards while focusing on human comfort.
