Bamboo House is a representative building of Dai people.

Dai bamboo building is a landmark building in Dai settlements. Because the south is rich in bamboo, the bamboo house has become the house of ordinary people. Generally square, divided into upper and lower floors, the upper floor is occupied by people, about two meters from the ground, and the bottom floor is overhead, which is used for raising livestock or stacking sundries. Bamboo roofs are double inclined, mostly woven "grass rafts".

Introduction of architectural characteristics of bamboo architecture

1, structural characteristics

The structure of bamboo architecture is divided into three parts: the main part: the main body of the building, including columns and beams; Support part: roof truss (commonly known as truss), which is composed of wooden columns or stone pillars, connected with wooden poles and hemp ropes to bear the roof load; Enclosure part: floor.

2. Material characteristics

Bamboo house is made of bamboo, which is durable, warm in winter and cool in summer. Because bamboo has the advantages of corrosion resistance, water absorption and low thermal conductivity, it can be built from local materials. In addition, the strength of bamboo is much higher than that of wood. Therefore, bamboo buildings generally use thicker plates to make wallboard and floor.

3, the construction characteristics

When building bamboo buildings, cement, lime and other adhesives are not used to bond bricks or clay, but bamboo can be used by baking on fire (called fire steaming). This construction method is simple and economical, and will not produce harmful gas to pollute the environment.
