The efficacy of the proposed method was demonstrated by a case study, in which building characteristics, occupancy schedules, pathogen parameters, as well as hygiene and cleaning practices are considered for outbreak risk assessment. This study contributes to the body of knowledge by computationally integrating building, occupant, and pathogen information modeling for infectious disease outbreak assessment, and communicating actionable information for built environment management. This study aims to develop a framework for room-level outbreak risk assessment based on 105 integrated building-occupancy-pathogen modeling to mitigate the spread of infectious disease in 106 ./cache/cord-266526-8csl9md0.txt ./txt/cord-266526-8csl9md0.txt
