The Architects present in the deliberations were of the unanimous opinion that for addressing the issue of Sustainability of Built Environment it is worthwhile adding such a Chapter in the National Building Code.

But! at the same time it was also opined that the provisions incorporated and the detailed elaboration are likely to have serious repercussions on the practice of architecture by all of us.

Accordingly, it was decided that the subject needs to be evaluated in more detail after a study of the same by a wider circulation . Hence I am writing to you all once again to evaluate the above draft documents (copy attached) and send your comments in the form as you may so desire latest by Feb. 15th 2013 either on the website http://web.iianc.org or by mail to iianc...@hotmail.com  with the subject mentioned above as the mail subject.
