" DEFINTION
OThe built environment touches all aspects of our lives,encompassing the buildings we live in, the
distribution systems that provide us with water and electricity, and the roads, bridges, and
transportation systems we use to get from place to place.
DThe term 'built environnment' refers to aspects of our surroundings that are built by humans, that is,
distinguished from the natural environment. It includes not only buildings, but the human
made spaces between buildings, such as parks, and the infrastructure that supports human activity
such as transportation networks, utilities networks, flood defaces, telecommunications, and so on.
