A Review on Old Building Environment and Indoor Microbials
Abstract: People naturally want to comprehend their surroundings. Today, developed nations spend over 90% of their populations indoors, mostly in structures and environments constructed, controlled, and planned by humans. Since individuals go from their homes to their employment, germs are continuous with and around them. Indoor microorganisms cohabit with outside soil and water bacteria. It is commonly found in animals, plants, rodents, and water tracked indoors on shoes and breathed in. …

Design Procedure and Criteria Used in Vertical Gardens and Green Roof Constructions
Abstract: A vertical garden also known as living wall or green wall is an independent vertical garden attached to exterior or interior walls of a building. In vertical gardens, various types of modular panels can be used along with geo-textile fabrics, growing media, irrigation systems, and plants. Living walls are mainly appropriate for cities, as they permit good use of obtainable vertical surface areas. The living wall could also function for …

Analysis of Heat Mitigation Potential of Coir Mat and Perlite Layers vs Green Roof Systems
Abstract: This study explores the heat mitigation potential of coir mats and green facades applied to roofs. Being situated near the equator, buildings are subjected to intense solar radiation due to the sun’s proximity and minimal declination angle. Consequently, roofs transfer a substantial amount of heat into indoor spaces, making effective thermal regulation strategies essential. Roof insulation emerges as a key method for managing indoor temperatures, with sustainable, locally sourced, climate-friendly, …

The Biomechanical Impact of Slipper Sole Compliance on Lumbar Spine Load: A Quantitative Analysis of Indoor Footwear Ergonomics
Abstract: Abstract The global shift toward remote work has significantly increased the duration of indoor footwear usage, yet the ergonomic standards for slippers remain critically under-researched compared to athletic or industrial footwear. While "high-compliance" or soft slippers are traditionally marketed for immediate comfort, excessive mechanical softness may lead to foot instability, altered gait kinetics, and subsequent compensatory stress on the lumbar spine. This study aims to quantify the correlation between varying …
