| Abstract | ||
| The Corona global pandemic, which emerged in the last quarter of 2019, has affected the global economy, resulting in many sectors such as energy, buildings, and industries being seriously affected by the epidemic. Studies of COVID- 19 transmission have indicated a direct relationship between the number of occupants and the risk of infection. The aim of this study is to focus on the work density strategy as one of the main overlooked factors affecting energy consumption, the risk of transmission of viruses within buildings, and to determine optimal works density to reduce energy consumption in buildings, especially educational buildings. To this end, the application approach has been used by using the COVE-TOOL and COVID-OCCUPANCY projects to apply the proposed occupant density after new design considerations to one of the classrooms and to evaluate their stays to reduce the spread of epidemics and rationalize their energy. | ||
