Dear Olly,

I am attaching a document and an a picture on bamboo housing that I have been working on. I think that the work done in Tripura would be more relevant to your project in Bhutan, the picture is from an ongoing work in North Bengal quite adjacent to Bhutan where seismic factors have been taken into consideration also.

I guess we met during the INBAR meet in Shanghai and Beijing during the recent world fair.

 New INBAR Work in Bhutan and a Request for inputs on Slum upgrading with bamboo

olly <olly...@gmail.com> Feb 02 12:41AM -0800  

Dear friends and colleagues,
 
I'd like to take the chance to introduce a recently completed
demonstration house built by INBAR in Bhutan with support from the
Ministry of Agriculture and Forests, Social Forestry Division. You can
find a small write up about the building on INBAR's website at:
 
http://www.inbar.int/show.asp?BoardID=98&NewsID=791
 
We will be supporting Bhutan to build a further three bamboo
structures in 2012 and hope to produce a publication on our
experiences by the end of the year.
 
Recently, I was also approached by UN Habitat for information on any
good case studies where bamboo has been used in urban slum upgrading.
If you have been involved in any such projects, or know of good
examples, please contact me (obf...@inbar.int)
 
Many thanks,
 
Olly

Dear Pulaha,

 

Thank you very much for sharing this project with us. We have also recently been reviewing construction techniques in the Northeast for an ICAR funded project and we definitely will bear these things in mind, while, at the same time, also respecting the architectural culture and local vernacular of Bhutan.

 

Thanks again for sharing,

Dear Pulaha,

 

The model bamboo house (model.b.jpeg) is awesome.  Can you give me an estimate of how much it might cost?  Has this been built?  If so, I would like a picture of the completed structure, and if possible, the building steps and pictures of its construction.

 

Thank you very much.
