“…In today's world, more than was the case in the second half of the twentieth century, buildings must achieve more while using fewer resources. Clarke and Maver (1991) describe simulation tools as the epitome of 'amplifiers of the intellect' category. 1 We concur; building simulation tools are potent allies to the teacher and the learner to achieve better buildings and greater sustainability.…”

This article reflects on a series of past and ongoing teaching experiences by the authors involving building simulation tools in undergraduate architecture and engineering education. All of the teaching experiences attempt to replicate the powerful consultant/architect interaction as found in high-quality architecture practices. After an overview briefly retracing the evolution from teaching formats in which the instructor is a provider of simulations to various formats in which the students produce simulations, the article presents a newly created interdisciplinary course. The course is jointly taught by the authors (an architect and an engineer), and its enrolment is comprised of undergraduate architecture and engineering students. The purpose of the dual enrolment is to provide the students with the opportunity to practise working in a collaborative manner within a multidisciplinary group. Effective collaboration among these two groups in practice has been cited as a means of producing more environmentally sustainable buildings.

“…However, united risk management is a challenging task. The concept of risk comprises, besides the conventional criteria of possibility of incident and extent of damage, the criteria of uncertainty, ubiquity, continuity, reversibility, delay impacts and potential of mobilization (Clarke and Maver, 1991). Therefore, in order to make more firm decisions, it is essential to work closely with stakeholders and other involved groups such as experts in industry or academia, technology measurement specialists, company managers, politicians and investors.…”

Dhaka has experienced high economic growth escorted by rapid urbanization. Physical infrastructures of Dhaka city are growing day by day with the swiftness of rapid urbanization. It revealed that most of the physical infrastructures such as buildings of Dhaka city did not follow the characteristics of sustainability thereby resulting in significant threats to the well-being of the people. In this perspective, ensuring sustainability in buildings is a time-worthy issue in Bangladesh. In this article, we have tried to address the issues of sustainable building and propose a sustainable and smart design which will swathe the criteria of environment, social and economic sustainability of Dhaka city. If the majority of the objectives of proposed design are met, the building will be more probable to meet the changing requirements of the settlers and make it a more sustainable, protected, secure, efficient and environmentally friendly place to stay.
