| description | This study focuses on indoor air quality and its influence to the healthy of the occupiers and in this case study identified the dissatisfaction level among the respondents in the education environments. Air velocity, temperature, and relation humidity were investigated using a device and then the analysis is correlate with the satisfaction level of the respondents.
