Whilst this is a controversial statement, architects are exposed to a lot of possibilities today in the integration of engineering and architectural design to create buildings and built environment that fulfil the following areas of effectiveness:
(1) Energy efficiency
(2) Constructability
(3) Cost Control
(4) Building maintenance and life span
(5) Integrated Engineering of the Buidling Envelope: Selective-Permeable Vs Insulated Skin
(6) Integrated Engineering of the Internal Environment
(7) Integrated Engineering of the Landscaped/External built Environment
(8) Conclusion
