Protecting and conserving environmental resources is a global concern. Over the past decade, a number of certification processes have emerged to help designers and operators of buildings assess the potential impact of a building on the environment. Certifications such as the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) consider the environmental impact through the lifecycle of a building, but may not be considering the people that construct and utilize it. It is important to remember the human factor. Considering the human factor throughout the lifecycle is crucial to ensure individuals are protected during construction and in operation in the built environment. The paper highlights how ergonomics can be integrated into the life cycle of a building to promote sustainability goals for both the human factor and the environment. A case study approach will be used to illustrate how ergonomics was integrated into a LEED renovation and expanded into its daily operations on a large university campus..
保护和养护环境资源是一个全球关注的问题。在过去十年中,出现了一些认证程序,以帮助建筑设计师和运营商评估建筑物对环境的潜在影响。诸如能源与环境设计先锋(LEED)等认证通过建筑物的生命周期来考量环境影响,但可能没有考虑建造和使用它的人。记住人为因素很重要。在整个生命周期中考虑人为因素对于确保个体在建筑施工和建成环境运营期间得到保护至关重要。本文强调了如何将人机工程学融入建筑物的生命周期,以促进人为因素和环境两方面的可持续发展目标。将采用案例研究方法来说明人机工程学是如何被融入到LEED翻新项目中,并在一所大型大学校园的日常运营中得以扩展的。
