Classification of potential risk factors through HIRARC method in assessing indoor environment of museums
Museums were established in Malaysia more than a hundred years ago. Since the year 2005, Malaysian government has discouraged constructing new purposely built museums in favour of refurbishing historic and old buildings to function as adaptive reused museums. Commonly due to insufficient ventilation...

Museums were established in Malaysia more than a hundred years ago. Since the year 2005, Malaysian government has discouraged constructing new purposely built museums in favour of refurbishing historic and old buildings to function as adaptive reused museums. Commonly due to insufficient ventilation, fully mechanically ventilated museums can pose critical indoor environmental issues that may lead to health hazards and risks among employees and visitors. Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine the potential risk factors within the museums based on indoor environmental criteria. This potential risk factors are resulted from the ‘Potential Risk Categories’, which have been developed by adopting the established Hazard Identification, Risks Assessment and Risk Control (HIRARC) Method.
