LEGEND :
ARMANITOLA FIELD
GOL TALAB WAS CREATED DURING
1886 BY NAWAB ABDUL BARI.
THATS WHY SOME PEOPLE USE TO
CALL THIS AS NAWAB ABDUL BARI
PUKUR. . NOW A DAYS THE POND IS
MONITORED AND MANAGED BY
THE MOULOVI KHAWAJA ABDULLAH
WELFARE TRUST. PEOPLE USE TO
TAKE BATH AT THIS POND, BUT THEY
HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS.

BUILDING BLOCKS 77%

PERCENTANGE CYCLE OF FORM AND SAPCE
SIRAJ- UD-DOLA PARK HERE THE PERCENTANGE GIVE US THE IMAGE
OF HOW AIR AND ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITION OF OLD DHAKA .BECAUSE OF TOO
MUCH DENSITY AND UNPLANNED
CONSTRUCTION ROADS ARE NARROW AND
LANSCAPE GREEN ARE MISSING .
ANALYSIS :
OLD DHAKA, THE HISTORIC CORE OF DHAKA
CITY IS AN EXTREME EXAMPLE OF SUCH A
JAHANGIRNAGAR UNIVERSITY DENSE AND UNPLANNED DEVELOPMENT,
DEVELOPED WITHIN A PROCESS OF
SPONTANEOUS GROWTH. IT REPRESENTS
PHYSICAL EARTHQUAKE VULNERABILITIES LIKE
HIGH POPULATION DENSITY, INFORMAL OR
UNPLANNED SETTLEMENTS, NON
ENGINEERED BUILDINGS AND SHELTERS,
LARGE NUMBER OF POORLY BUILT
BUILDINGS, CONTIGUOUS BUILDING PATTERN
AND LACK OF OPEN SPACES ADD UP TO THE
PROBLEM. ALL THESE HAVE CREATED
INACCESSIBILITY OF MOVEMENT AT THE
BUILDING BLOCK AND STREET LEVEL, WHICH
WILL MAKE ANY POST DISASTER
MANAGEMENT EVEN WORSE.
FROM THIS VIEW POINT, AN EFFECTIVE
BAHADURSAH PARK
EVACUATION PLANNING TO MITIGATE
EARTHQUAKE VULNERABILITY IN OLD DHAKA IS
URGENT TO REDUCE THE LOSSES. TO
UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION, A RESEARCH
HAS BEEN DONE IN THE RECENT PAST AT
BUET, TITLED 'EARTHQUAKE VULNERABILITY
REDUCTION STRATEGIES FOR UNPLANNED
URBAN AREAS'.

SOCIO CULTURE EVLAUTION
Activity & vitality

This phase is assessing peoples activity while living as street neighbour.

There is a large number of people who arent the official residents or trader
of this area but they play an important role for the entire behavioural study.
From this site we get an approximate data by observing this classes
people we learn that the worker class percentage is huge in number as the
area is trade based. There also present a number of street children who are
involve in some kind of small business. We didnt notice the extreme drug
addicted there except some street children.
