| description |
The concern for the natural and built environment
has become crucial in relation to the concept of sustainable
development. Literatures show that the ecological design (ED)
concept has produced positive results in supporting the
achievement of sustainable development, though it faces many
challenges amongst public and other stakeholders of its
importance towards a green environment. This research
attempts to seek the level of the ED compliance in the Putra
University of Malaysia campus. The objectives are: (1) to
determine the present ED features that are being practised in
education building in the campus; and (2) to identify the level of
compliance of ED variables in the campus. An observation
survey of 23 selected buildings within the campus was
conducted, based on a set of pre-determined five variables and
its sub-variables in determining the level of compliance to ED.
The results demonstrated that the level was relatively moderate,
and many buildings failed to comply with some variables of ED.
It is concluded that the research has met its outlined objectives
in which the findings demonstrate that the level of ED
compliance in the campus can be considered as moderate. |
