How do you calculate the amount of ventilation required for a building's interior spaces?

As an AI language model, I don't have access to the specifics of the building, such as its size, occupancy, and use. Generally, the amount of ventilation required for a building's interior spaces is determined by the code requirements and standards set by the local building authorities, such as the International Mechanical Code (IMC) and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Professionals, such as mechanical engineers, use these codes and standards to determine the ventilation requirements according to the building's purpose and occupancy. They take into account factors such as the number of occupants, the size of the space, and the use of the area, among others. They may also consider the building's location and the outdoor air quality when calculating the ventilation requirements.
