Snezana Stojkovic, directrice du département conception d’AECOM, est devenue la première et la seule spécialiste en Russie accréditée WELL Acredited Professional (WELL AP™).
Cette accréditation permet au bureau russe d’AECOM de poursuivre la mise en oeuvre de projets de constructions d’immeubles orientés vers la santé et le bien-être de la population et le développement de la société. Cette accréditation permettra notamment à AECOM de renforcer la position de ses nouveaux services de conseil en organisation des lieux de travail (Workplace consulting) sur le marché.
Lancé en 2014, le standard de construction WELL est devenu la première méthode de certification entièrement orientée vers les facteurs ayant une influence sur la santé et le bien-être humain et basée sur 7 ans de recherche scientifique, médicale et architecturale.
While some of the common risks to our health today include airborne pollutants, poor diet, stress and lack of sleep, which can weaken the immune system, WELL research has found that buildings also have a profound impact on our bodily functions, ranging from our endocrine (hormone production) system through to our nervous system.
The internal environment can cause us physiological stress by having to live with discomfort caused by glare, relentless grey, noise and cold draughts. The WELL standard encourages design features that give occupants more control over their environment, allowing them to adjust internal conditions to reduce the need to filter out distractions and put up with discomfort.
WELL has set itself apart from most other building assessment methods because certification is based on actual operational performance. After completion, the building operation is audited and everything that can be measured is measured.
The audit includes measuring water and air quality, lighting colour temperature, radiant temperature, decibel levels and sound reverberation.
