What are the benefits of people adopting high-rise residential buildings on the Chao Phraya River plain in East Asian countries?

* * * The similarity is that the roof has a large inclination. In order to facilitate rapid drainage (precipitation), there is more precipitation in both places. South China has a subtropical monsoon climate, while Mekong River has a tropical monsoon climate.

The difference is: (1) The roof of Mekong River has a large inclination, and the annual precipitation in tropical monsoon climate can reach about 1500MM.

② Most houses on the Mekong River are tall buildings made of bamboo. The lower floor of a high-rise building is used as a barn, and the upper floor is occupied by people. Cool and ventilated, not only makes the room dry, but also avoids the invasion of snakes and beasts.

I am engaged in architectural design and worked in Southeast Asia a long time ago. Personal feeling (non-expert opinion) The formation of high-rise residential buildings has the following factors:

1. raw materials. In forest areas, wood is the only available building material.

2. Technical level. The construction technology is simple, only long wooden strips are used to support each other, to make a platform, to add a sloping roof on it, and to enclose an outer wall with straw mats, which is not very skillful.

3. Heavy rain. Most areas are only divided into rainy season, and the rainfall in rainy season is amazing, and the land is too late to flood.

4. The soil is wet. The living room is raised off the ground, which helps to ventilate and dry.

5. Poor sanitary conditions. Generally, in rural areas where there are many people living together, there is no toilet facilities, and it is convenient to be close to HOS houses, which can raise the position of houses and reduce the spread of diseases.

6. Anti-theft. Putting away the ladder at night can play a safe role.
