Summary
Identifying remediable causes of occupant symptoms in building-related illness is frequently difficult. This is particularly true when the building-wide prevalence of symptoms is comparable to that reported in non-problem buildings. This analysis applied an epidemiological approach to an assessment of a problem building, allowing investigators to visually identify an area of apparent increased symptom density. A cluster analysis approach permitted biostatistical confirmation for the visual cluster.
