Modern laboratories require regulated temperature, humidity,
relative static pressure, air motion, air cleanliness, sound, and exhaust. This
chapter addresses biological, chemical, animal, and physical laboratories.
Within these generic categories, some laboratories have unique requirements.
This chapter provides an overview of the HVAC characteristics and design criteria
for laboratories, including a brief overview of architectural and utility concerns.
This chapter does not cover pilot plants, which are essentially small
manufacturing units.
