2. Research Network which deals with specific issues concerning

aspects of building design and construction?
Talking about the basic issue of a climate and how the people living
there for a specific area that we visited during our study tour (Thar) in
terms of construction and architecture of buildings, the climate was on its
extreme hotness when we visited that area. They do not have proper
houses or shelter to protect themselves form that harsh climate and by
facing that issue a vernacular solution came to its shape, they used their
local materials like mud as walls and thatch as roof covering.
3. Basic/ particularly pertinent to the development of a research
within historical changes or now.
 4. Detail design in architecture was established in thar with the aim
of bringing together knowledge & developing our understanding
architecture detailing with an environmentally sustainable.
 The detail planning was set up in thar which brought together the
information and created our understanding architecture detailing with an
environmentally sustainable. As we visited a Guest House (Aramgah) that
was designed by Architect Arif Hasan on the concept of Sustainable
design, they were the best example that I’ve seen in all the Thar. The were
producing their own energy by utilizing solar energy and they were given
proper cross ventilation that makes the houses more airy and cool from
outer weather and one more reason that houses were been cool because
they used the Lime Mortar on inner walls. Also these houses were
environmental friendly.
