| Summary: | Sustainable development is key to the strategic sustainability within a society.
Sustainable neighbourhood development (SND) is a fundamental element of a
sustainable community. However, SND on it own will certainly not permit all
stakeholders, particularly the end-users, to efficiently address current or
projected future issues that positioned beyond the extent of physical
development scope. Thus, this research aims to explore whether pre-occupancy
assessment criteria addresses the adaptive measures of sustainable dimension
pillars (SDP) upon post-occupancy holistically. The research objective is to
identify the post-occupancy sustainable criteria gap of SND. To achieve this, the
research applied Stakeholders-Inclusion Approach using Post-Occupancy
Evaluation Model (POEM) Handbook as measurement tool. This research seeks
to measure and identify SDP gap on economic, social and environmental balance
and responsive approach towards incremental improvements in SND at
community and individual levels. The findings indicated that there are SDP
adaptation gaps in post-occupied SND. |
