Viruses, Bacteria and Fungi in the Built Environment: Designing Healthy Indoor Environments opens with a brief introduction to viruses, bacteria and fungi in the built environment and discusses their impact on human health. Sections discuss the microbiology of building materials, the airborne transmission of viruses and bacteria in the built environment, and plumbing-associated microbiome. As the first book on this important area to be written in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, this work will be a valuable reference resource for researchers, civil engineers, architects, postgraduate students, contractors and other professionals working and interested in the field of the built environment.

Elements of building design, including choice of materials, ventilation and plumbing can have important implications for the microbiology of a building, and consequently, the health of the building's occupants. This important new reference work explains the microbiology of buildings and disease control in the built environment to those who design and implement new construction and renovate.



  • Provides an essential guide on the microbiology of buildings, covering bacteria, fungi and viruses on surfaces, in air and in water
  • Comprehensively examines how humidity influences fungal growth in several building materials
  • Includes important information about the airborne transmission of infectious agents
  • Addresses ventilation design to improve human health
  • Presents the first book on disease control in buildings since the COVID-19 pandemic
