  1. Bulldog Breathing By: Jake May & Austin Sherper

  2. Explanation • This was an air quality project measuring the amount of particulate matter in the air, otherwise known as PM. • EPA’s standard for indoor PM is 2.5 • Anything below is a hazard.

  3. Research Question • Research Question: What is the size of the matter in an indoor environment? • We are trying to test the size of the particular matter to see if it is a safe environment to work in.

  4. Location Bulldog Saloon Attic Bulldog Saloon Basement

  5. 2.5 PM • 2.5 PM is measured in microns • 2.5 microns is about 1/20 of the size of a human hair

  6. Hypothesis We thought that the PM level in the attic will be higher than the PM level in the basement. Explanation: We believed the basement was more damp and has a higher dust level than the attic, mainly because there is more room in the basement.

  7. Reason of Interest Jake’s family owns this business and we thought it would be interesting to see what the air quality is like and to see whether it needs improvement or not.

  8. Methods We used the Dust Trak to figure out the air quality of the Bulldog Saloon. We put the Dust Trak in the basement of the Saloon and the attic. We thought these two places would be best because of the dust in both places. Our data was very similar in both places and it was a successful Dust Trak test.

  9. Conclusion - After it was all said and done we found out that basement had a higher 2.5 level than the Attic did mainly because it was much more damp with a great amount of dust to.
