Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between indoor air quality (IAQ) parameters with sick building syndrome (SBS) symptoms. The selected buildings are Shah Alam Gallery and Sultan Alam Shah Museum in Shah Alam, Selangor which had been operated for more than 30 years. This research underscores the significance of IAQ in ensuring a healthy and productive indoor environment, particularly in older buildings where structural aging and outdated HVAC systems can exacerbate IAQ issues. By understanding the relationship between IAQ and SBS, building owners can implement appropriate interventions to improve occupant health and productivity, ultimately contributing to a safer and more comfortable indoor space.
