Mud Construction

Mud is the most widely used building material. Some believe that mud is outmoded, but the truth is that even today it is the most relevant material that gives shelter to millions of people on the globe..

 

Mud construction has its limitations and the limitations are its strength! It works best in self built, self occupied buildings… thus mud is the ideal material for participatory and community oriented construction which relies on mutual self help. Here the architect can also play a vital role in the form of R & D required to extract maximum efficiency out of the material and technology employed for construction.
