Sharjah24: The Sharjah Directorate of Public Works (SDPW) organised last week a remote engineering event on the principles of sustainability, with the aim of shedding light on ways to integrate the modern urban designs with the principles of sustainability.
The event included a number of dialogue sessions with the participation of influential figures from the architecture and design sectors, including 3 various sessions that underscored the significance of green or sustainable architecture and its role in preserving environmental resources; with reviewing the current and future challenges on how to respond to the challenging climatic conditions in a sustainable manner; in addition to discussing several topics related to the environment. The Department of Public Works has great interest in promoting the sustainable architecture with its work in the construction of government buildings. The sustainable design approach contributes in reducing carbon emissions, working with minimal water, and promoting energy use.
