It has been anticipated that the component C (Improved Construction, Urban Planning and Development) of the Bangladesh Urban Resilience Project (URP) would be successful through institutional strengthening by the creation of a new organizational unit in RAJUK. It has been named as the Urban Resilience Unit (URU) to encompass the development of competencies related to urban resilience such as risk assessment, earthquake engineering, construction standards, in-situ and laboratory construction material testing, specialized construction training and risk-sensitive land use planning. It has been planned that URU would be equipped with a specialized training facility geared toward competency building of construction activities. A testing facility for in-situ and laboratory of construction materials and structural components has also been proposed for this unit. The URU will be accommodated into new premises to be built in RAJUK’s own land. The Building will be constructed at Mohakhali in the heart of Dhaka; by the side of Gulshan-Banani, which will be the administrative headquarters of URU, RAJUK.
