The occurrence of certain volatile organic compounds was to be investigated in a sample room of a new building to determine any health hazard arising from the employed materials. Approximately 60 volatile organic compounds, formaldehyde, polychlorinated biphenyls, inorganic fibrous particles and "natural" air-exchange were included in the investigation. The reasons for increased concentrations of formaldehyde and volatile organic compounds could be determined by material-emission-investigations. These investigations further revealed that medical-hygienic demands for sufficient "natural" air-exchange should possibly be given priority over warmth conservation regulations (Wärmeschutzverordnung) that require a high degree of insulation in windows and doors. If this is not taken into consideration then some of the staff may display a variety of symptoms known as "sick-building-syndrome".
在一栋新建筑的样品室中，对某些挥发性有机化合物的出现情况进行了调查，以确定所使用材料是否会产生任何健康危害。调查涵盖了约60种挥发性有机化合物、甲醛、多氯联苯、无机纤维颗粒以及“自然”空气交换情况。通过材料排放调查可以确定甲醛和挥发性有机化合物浓度升高的原因。这些调查还进一步表明，从医学卫生角度对充足“自然”空气交换的要求可能应优先于要求门窗高度隔热的保暖规定（《保暖条例》）。如果不考虑这一点，那么一些工作人员可能会出现各种被称为“病态建筑综合症”的症状。
