Easy Bamboo

CEPT canteen teaches many things. Here you see artisans of all and any types, from all or any part of the world, with most of them being professionals dealing with built environment and its spaces. There are amazing number of theories and suppositions in the canteen air, which have only increased in the confined space with the increase of people in recent years; hurried rock bands riffs go in the background too. They call it blues and they give you blues.

Leave that, one such theory suggested by a real-estate-artisan to me is - “target the army, man!” He doesn’t means shooting with guns, but rather explaining how an organization can use the Bamboo as an emergency material which can be simply crafted by its soldiers during war as well as during relief.

Bureau of Indian Standard’s IS 7344 1974 Specification for bamboo tent poles needs mentioning to that artisan.
