This DRP encourages to explore the vernacular
practices in conjunction with use of engineered materials with
more efficiency. To explore this, the case of Majuli was chosen
wherein the growth and use of Bamboo as a construction
material is extensive yet rudimentary. This study intends
to explore the utility of vernacular bamboo construction
techniques in walling systems along with industrially
manufactured products to respond to the dire flooding
situation that results in annual relocation of the people of
Majuli - such that it improves and simplifies their existing lives
borrowing from the practices of their own culture.
