Bamboo has strength and high elasticity so that it can be used as building material and wood substitutes and Utilization of Bamboo. Materials exploration Used In Building

Bamboo is the main material of this homes is explored. Why bamboo? Bamboo was chosen because the owner wanted to use materials that do not require a lot of energy in its implementation. In addition, both functions also as a means to socialize the possibility of other natural materials other than wood for building materials. Unlike the very tree clear-cutting, bamboo can be harvested once every 3 years and is constantly growing as long as no part root destroyed, so the bamboo can be quickly updated, renewable and suistenable material. Bamboo is very easy to obtain, there are almost in all parts of Indonesia. In terms of cost, while the bamboo is cheaper in terms of implementation, bamboo can also be easily processed into building materials.

Prior to use as building materials, furniture and aesthetic elements, bamboo first brought to the workshop to be processed first. Bamboo preserved by soaking with a mixture of 5% of chemicals and 95% water for 14 days, then dried. Most, bamboo is processed into building materials is done directly on the site. But there is also the first processed in the workshop is to manufacture panels and woven bamboo floor bamboo gedek.

Applications bamboo structures in this residential variety. East building mass and the mass of Western buildings using bamboo as the only major structure as well as a wall charger. Bamboo or bamboo petung gombong in diameter from 10 to 12 cm is inserted into the column structure, and then given TULANGAN casted iron and concrete. Bamboo can reduce the number of cast concrete to 50% of them. This technique is called bamboocrete. Shaped woven bamboo is used in part as a replacement brick wall or brick. Woven bamboo is coated on both sides by the ram-shaped wire “honey”, and then plastered with a finishing kamprot or regular acian.

Concept Building Mass

Planning and design of this house came from the concept of family and number of family members. Building mass is divided into three areas. The first area is the East building mass to area parents, is private. The second area is a bale-bale in the middle of the bamboo open land for common areas, are public. The third area is the western building mass to area children, are semiprivate. The concept of the physical form and layout of the mass of the building itself adapted to the presence of clove trees which 9 were in the land before the start of the construction process. This is what led to the emergence of the concept of lean construction. Namely, the mass of the building is made with a modular system with a column spacing of 3.5 to 4 meters are placed among the clove trees that flourished and is still productive.

East building mass and the mass of the West building their own stand. All sleeping rooms are on the top floor of each building mass to privacy more secure. The ground floor consists of guest rooms, dining room and pantry, large kitchen and musala. To the ground floor, two buildings connected by a mass-bale bale open bamboo which is the center of this house. Bale-bale is large enough that 50 m2 and designed without walls and doors that open freely to the front facing the house and into the back of the house. Bale-bale, bamboo and bamboo bridges using bamboo sticks as a floor intact.

For the top floor, two masses connected by a bridge structure is also designed bamboo open. The bridge is just above the bale-bale of bamboo that also functions as a roof for the bale-bale. The bridge is expected to be given a roof to cover the tent structure. This open space designed to be interwoven relationships and harmony between the inner and outer space.

Finally we can see the desire designer and owner of this house who tried to apply the concept of green architecture through the concept of recycling, respect for the existing presence of clove trees, use bamboo material in integrated innovation with the use of secondhand materials has produced a work of architecture and environmentally proper our appreciation together.
