Comparative Analysis on Built Environment between Ground and Underground Shopping Malls in Chongqing in P.R. China
An investigation study on built environment was carried out for ground shopping malls and underground shopping malls, in search of similarities and differences between them. Four representative shopping malls were investigated from 2012 to 2014 by means of testing and questionnaires. It analyzed the current situation of indoor thermal environment, light environment, acoustic environment as well as indoor air quality. The study found that no significant differences in indoor environmental parameters (including air temperature, relative humidity and air velocity) and people’s sensation vote to them, apart from draft sensation vote for the two types of shopping malls. Besides, both the average indoor illumination was far below the national standard especially for underground shopping malls. Moreover, Noise levels were basically the same and the satisfaction rate of acoustic environment of underground shopping malls was apparently inferior to that of ground shopping malls. Eventually, indoor air quality was not as undesirable as it was expected even measured in the two types. On the basis of studying, some practicable improvement measures were proposed.
