This book focuses on developing a holistic sustainability assessment-built environment model that can help in identifying sustainability issues and parameters for the built environment. It covers a wide range of sustainable built-form issues in the local and regional contexts.

The volume identifies significant built form sustainability indicators, criteria, and sub-criterion while highlighting the importance of incorporating sustainability principles and its assessment. It also discusses the data collection process for defining priorities of sustainability parameters using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique. The book presents information to obtain fuzzy weights to classify assessed built form. The chapters in this book explain the development of an integrated built environment assessment system for infrastructure projects.

This book will be of interest to students, teachers, and researchers of architecture, construction, urban studies, interior designing, urban planning, and civil engineering. It will also be useful for architects, planners, civil engineers, interior designers, builders, developers, green building assessors, and those interested in the sustainable assessment-built environment and urban development.
