Floating Architecture in Flood Prone-Area

Abstract: The floating architecture allows for dealing with the damage that has been promoted to the environment and herbal resources by providing extra space and electricity assets for humans. A futuristic perspective starts evolvingby reviewing the want for floating systems and their scope for the improvement & increase of towns. As known India is extremely prone to floods. More than 40 million hectares (MHA) are flood-prone. Floods are a common occurrence that kills many people and destroys livelihoods, property, infrastructure, and public services. Flood-related damage is on the rise, which is the reason for concern. This can be ascribed to a variety of factors, including rapid growth in population, rapid urbanization, increased development and commercial activity in flood plains, and global warming. (National Disaster Management Athority, India, n.d.) In the northern regions where people are forced to relocate during the season as a preventive measure floating structures can be of great relief. Either by replacement in a few construction techniques or by incorporating certain techniques from the initial stage. Principles of Floating Architecture can be used to develop residential units for people who do not need to relocate annually, and floods cause less damage to the infrastructure.
