dc.description.abstractThe future is in the hands of the young the young are molded in universities around the world to take charge of the future. As such, it is relevant to know the level of readiness the young have to deal with New World Problems. In the area of the built environment it is public knowledge that the use of cement and steel in construction is harmful to the environment due to their methods of fabrication. Thus, it is necessary to gauge the level of knowledge new and emerging architects, designers and other paraprofessionals in the construction industry have on the alternative sustainable materials which can be used in construction and hence, secure a better future. This paper, is based on a survey of students of Bachelor of architecture of the Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia testing their awareness and knowledge on the use of bamboo as a construction material, focusing on the main elements of the building, namely; the floor, wall, roof and columns. Architects and designers need to have a basic knowledge of these aspects in order to use the materials as they are conventionally or traditionally used, or begin to innovate new ways to create realistic, sustainable pieces of architecture, using this alternative material. The issue of sustainability is a concern for all and sundry and permeates all aspects of life. With buildings taking up to 30% of energy globally, hence in terms of architecture, awareness is necessary for all, not just those enrolled in specialized sustainable architecture programs. this is highly relevant because without knowledge or even basic awareness of the existence of such alternatives they will just follow the status quo of using reinforced concrete and steel, which has been proven through research to be highly harmful to the environment.en_US
