Affordable housing techniques in flood prone areas.

Constructing better homes in flood-prone areas by utilizing a hybrid architectural technique.

• Due to poor housing planning and construction, communities of people in flood-prone areas are compelled to relocate.
• Devastating floods struck Bangladesh and northeastern India starting in May 2022. Around 300 individuals have died and around 9 million people have been affected in both nations. Heavy rains in May 2020 caused the first floods, which affected 30,000 people and destroyed crops in five regions.
• As of October 2020, 5474 communities were impacted, over five million people were affected, 123 people lost their lives as a result of the floods, and another 26 people died.

This hybrid architectural technology will ameliorate in to combat this problem.

• The aim of the hybrid architectural technique is to build houses in flood-prone areas relatively accessible. Utilizing a wooden base apart from the house's construction will enable it to do this. To make up the entire architecture, the base will be situated at a certain height with the house. 
• Additionally, creating a technology that consists of a shield attached below the home in the shape of origami. When a flood is detected, the sensor opens the shield to cover the whole home.
• Sal wood is regarded as the most durable, cost-effective, and water-absorbing wood in India. This can readily elevate homes for years and serve as a base because of its long lifespan. The base would keep the house floating over the surface.

By providing adequate housing, the hybrid architectural technique would help the community avoid being uprooted.

We can work over the technical portion and along with this, working on base materials can help to provide low-cost housing with proper technology.

According to the flood scenario, communities of people are affected quite rapidly. This tragedy displaces and even kills members of these communities.

It would be beneficial to work with them in order to provide a reliable platform.

The pattern of flood-prone areas could alter as a result of integrating new technology with antiquated ways.
