Cyclone Housing Design + Build Workshop, Bangladesh 2016 What will workshop participants learn? We are happy to announce that Building Trust will be working with a local community in Kuakata, Barishal, Bangladesh to design and build a cyclone resistance low cost house for a family in need. Bangladesh is a river-based country whose coastal areas are frequently affected by natural disasters such as cyclones.1000's of houses are destroyed annually; entire villages are eradicated during such disasters. It is due to this problem that our team has been requested to organise a workshop to find a new housing solution. This is a hands on course and will result in a new housing prototype working with others to learn on-site skills such as: Super adobe Soil testing Bamboo framing and roof construction Earth works to prevent wind damage and flooding Wattle and daub walls Natural plastering Wood flooring When: The fun bit with hands on lessons in the techniques mentioned above Sat 16th January - Sat 30th January 2016 http://www.buildingtrustinternational.org/getinvolved.html
