Overview of ergonomics built environment

Abstract

This article provides an overview of academic research in the scientific discipline of ergonomics in the context of the built environment, from data collected from journals, conferences and research groups whose focus is the theme of the Ergonomics of Built Environment. Starting from the context of the Ergonomics of Built Environment, it identifies the broadcast media who publish work in this area and its scientific production, seeking to recover from the first published papers to the production of the most recent scientific journals and conferences to be launched 2010. From this mapping, we identified the major outstanding and open issues in these studies, outlining the state of the art Ergonomics Built Environment, in order to inform those interested and intend to develop scientific research in this field.

A Framework for Integrating Ergonomics Into Architectural Design

“…1. Interaction between humans and buildings (e.g., Costa et al, 2012;Engström et al, 2001;Pheasant & Haslegrave, 2005). 2.…”

The Role of the Built Environment in Human Life. Selected Issues

“…Other important studies include ergonomics, the science dealing with the interaction between people and their material environment as well as the search for optimal solutions to provide them with the best operating conditions, both in the office, while travelling, at home, or in a place of recreation etc. (the review of the current issues raised in the context of this discipline was made by Costa et al ., 2012).…”

Design Studio Insights: Anthropometric Considerations for Ergonomic Design of Wet Services

“…Ergonomics is the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of the interactions among humans and other elements of a system, it also considers the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design for optimization of human wellbeing and system performance (International Ergonomics Association, 2000). In this vein, the importance and necessity of ergonomics in the built environment is widely acclaimed for building performance, users comfort and sustainable development (Attaianese, 2012(Attaianese, , 2017Attaianese & Duca, 2012;Biswas et al, 2021;Charytonowicz, n.d.;Costa et al, 2012;Eilouti, 2021;Garneau & Parkinson, 2016;Hendrick, 2008;Klamklay et al, 2008;Mokdad, 2002;Olguntürk & Demirkan, 2009;Pentikis et al, 2002;Pheasant & Haslegrave, 2018;Radjiyev et al, 2015;Sanders & McCormick, 1993).…”
