Elephant--------Natural Material 1 Not to scare elephants in their garden. The Artifical Industrial material will be monster in the city jungle. Choose the material more natural friendly 2 Re-used material, which means when the constructure material is broken or old, it can be used for another function, such as FOOD, PLAYING TOYS.etc.

25% Urban

3 It is better that combined the building material with the elephant daily life. Choose from the wide arange of natural, Using the material which elephant is quite familiar with----BAMBOO

38% Forest

37% Agriculture

The Large green area and plenty forest resource indicated that thailand has rich bamboo resource. Using bamboo as main material not only has the great sustainable development but also the building material is low cost.

ADVANTAGE

DISADVANTAGE

Natural Friendly, the material is close to animals (nature)

Structure challenge--The traditional bamboo structure is hard to supporting

Strength--Bamboo is an extremely strong natural fiber, on par with standard hardwoods, when cultivated,harvested, prepared and stored properly.

Maintenance--Compare with the concrete and steel, the bamboo should be maintainced more frequently

Flexibility--Bamboo is highly flexible.During its growth, it may be trained to grow in unconventional shapes, After harvest,it may be bent and utilized in archways and other curved areas.

Animal--Very careful about the elephant. easier be destoried by them than other material.

Earthquake-resistance-- It has a great capacity for shock absorption, which makes it particularly useful in earthquakeprone areas.

Pest-- Think about pest problem as well.

Lightweight--Bamboo is extremely lightweight. Consequently, building with bamboo can be accomplished faster with simple tools than building with other materials. Cranes and other heavy machinery are rarely required

Construction--More challenge for construction process.

Cost-effective--Economical, especially in areas where it is cultivated and is readily available. Transporting cost is also much lesser. Durability-- As long-lasting as its wooden correlates, when properly harvested and maintained.

Conclusion: Compare about the advantage and disadvantage points, consider about the key natural issue and sustainable feature. Using bamboo as main material

According to the design concept issue and the structure problem to choose the material. Compared about the natural material and artifical material. Explain different reasons why choose bamboo finally. From the main reason which relatived with elephant to the material characteristics, from the advantage to disadvantage points. Compared all the reasons that I considered about, using bamboo as main material at last, and try to figure out the new structure system match the building design.

Bamboo for Wastewater Treatment As sewage treatment, bamboos are presented as an alternative water pollution solution through the Root Zone Method (RZM). There are different methods to treat water pollution and each is applied depending on the nature and extent of contamination. Traditionally, the plants used for this purpose are reeds, tules, cattails and sedges. Studies have been initiated with some bamboo species that can withstand moisture for most of the year. The initial problem to overcome with Guadua bamboo would be the adaptation of the small plants to the wet conditions, which are in the early stages of development very susceptible to excess moisture.

Bamoo life cycle ---quick, reuse Giant Bamboo 2.4m

Another use which is being investigated is the use of bamboo stem rings, which are nothing more than Guadua bamboo internodes of about 5 cm in length. Especially in rural areas, traditional wastewater treatment materials such as stone and gravel are being used. These could be replaced with the tips of the Guadua bamboo as a material in anaerobic filters. The removal efficiency was similar for both materials, but with the advantage that bamboo is cheaper and such rings are virtually scrap when exploiting bamboo

Guadua bamboo forests and plantations also have a purifying effect, and can be seen on various slopes and undulating reliefs through Central and South America. Commercial Guadua Bamboo plantations are now admired by environmentalists and nature lovers who see in these forests, a landscape framed by its beauty and generation of diverse environmental advantages.

3.1 Building Environmental Impact and lifecycle

Bamboo is a member of the botanical tribe of Gramineae with over 70 genera of reputedly 1500 species whose woody stems called culms can have a mature size ranging from 100 mm to 36 metres with individual culms growing up to 30 cm in diameter. Bamboo as the natural material has the great sustainable benefits for city. It can absorb CO2 and give out oxgen more effciently than other plants. The diagram introduce the normal forest transfer CO2 process. Bamboo removes CO2 from the atmosphere through photosynthesis by using carbon as an energy source and converting it into plant tissue which releases oxygen (O2) as a byproduct. Bamboo absorbs carbon dioxide and releases 35% more oxygen into the atmosphere than an equivalent stand of hardwood trees.1 hectar of bamboo sequesters 62 tons of CO2/year (source: J.Janssen, Technical University Eindhoven, 2000) 1 hectar of young forest sequesters 15 tons of CO2/year

Bangkok, Thailand,2050

Bamboo forests have many environmental benefits because they function as carbon sinks, produce oxygen, control soil erosion, provide organic matter, regulate water levels in watersheds, conserve biodiversity, beautify the landscape, and essentially contribute to the purification and regulation of the environment.

All woody bamboos have their environmental importance, however giant timber bamboo species such as Guadua angustifolia are particularly astounding... Bamboo captures huge amounts of carbon dioxide which they generate and convert into oxygen. Scientific studies in commercial bamboo plantations in Mexico show that Guadua angustifolia has the capacity to capture 149.9 tons of CO2 per hectare in the first 7 years after planting (average of 21.41 tons / ha / year). Information which is fundamental and necessary to enter the international system of carbon trading, and which can bring additional benefit for investors and farmers who grow and cultivate Guadua bamboo. Bamboo does not release the trapped CO2 as it stays captures inside the plant, even after the harvested timber is used in value added products for construction, flooring, panels, etc. it still functions as a carbon sink. One hectare of adult Guadua bamboo can also produce 5.8 times more biomass compared to most other forest species. Furthermore, bamboo is a sustainable and renewable resource because it continuously spreads vegetatively. This allows the formation of forests much faster compared to most other tree species. Unlike other types of commercial forestry crops where trees must be clear-cut and replanted, in bamboo plantations only mature stems are harvested while younger stems are left untouched to mature and develop. All these characteristics have called the attention of industrialized countries, and reveals the environmental impact and potential of Guadua Bamboo as a high yielding forestry crop. These countries who according to the Kyoto Protocol must reduce the effects of greenhouse gas emissions, see Guadua bamboo as an alternative that could help solve a global problem, perhaps, even at less costs compared to other expensive technological processes, which are much more complicated as well.

p. 84

The “Future Climate Projection for Thailand and Mainland Southeast Asia Using PRECIS Climate Models”, indicates thefollowing developments until 2049: · The average temperature for Thailand will increase steadily over time · The number of days with high heat (over 35 C°) will increase steadily in each region · The number of days with cool weather (under 15 C°) will decrease In conclusion, rainfall in Thailand will become heavier which increases risk of flash flooding. At the same time, the duration of the summer season will lengthen with higher mean temperatures. This could increase incidence and duration of drought in all regions of the country. The direction and velocity of winds in the South region, which has geographic features of a peninsula, will certainly cause distinctive climate changes.
