   â— construction process design requirements - mainly contains biology laboratory building design, interior decoration materials requirements.
Basic laboratory work of the regional scale (ELM) is to ensure the safety of biomedical research to run to set a regional scale. Laboratory ELM generally include console, laboratory equipment (including storage cabinets), table, chemical exhaust cover and the length requirement of biology safety cabinets.
The current trend in laboratory design planning has already begun moving in the direction of Planning regional spatial scale, but not limited to the length of the regional scale. This trend is originated in the form of modular laboratory use.
As the construction area  including circulation areas, building core area, wall area and public area, certainly in the whole it is greater than the use of specific functional area. Reference the AIA ,using the conversion method between the area and construction area, The basic conversion factor of laboratory (including the internal circulation and function of distribution area) area is from 1.7 to 2.2. The total area conversion out will also be required to adjust in actual planning.
Laboratory Construction materials should select the type of durable and easy to clean and they can help to create a comfortable and safe working environment. The key factor for the material is easily to clean, easily to maintain, easily to storage and to minimize the virus spreading. Selected material for the wall and the floor must also be taken into account to ensure the safety of laboratory personnel.
