Traditional but Wasteful structure

This is a church being built in Kepong, this is the typical traditional building techniques but wasteful in both materials, equipments and skills. Basically its a carry over from western architecture that is NOT suitable locally.

I am looking for materials like this that can support high roof with just one piece of poll.

any other materials are fine too ...

even bricks like this. I am just interested to learn what are the pro and cons of each building materials, its strength, characteristics etc.

Metal beam like this should be the most straight forward materials but not necessary suitable for residential

Roof top as less clutter as possible ...

What is 21st century home about ?


One of the most important topics in 21st century is "GREEN"

Save energy, recycle waste, save the earth !

When we build a home ( not just house ), we are 'borrowing' from our mother earth. Earth stays forever. Dinasour comes and go. Human comes and go. If we are selfish enough to destroy what we use, its evident that Earth will chase us out of our estinction sooner.

So what is the right way to build our home ? What materials should we use ? Can we still enjoy lifestyle with GREEN ? Is there such thing as having both the GREEN and the FEEL within BUDGET ?

Well, those are the quetions this blog want to solve ... all comments welcome !

List of Helps




iRenovate
11-3, Jalan Solaris 1, Mont Kiara, 50480 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Tel: +6 03 6203 6060
Fax: +6 03 6203 7070

Self claim to be innovative but their common practice is to pay $1,000 up front for assessment and drawing. Only if you continue to use them to preform the renovation this $1,000 is knock off, else the consultation is considered as charged. I vaguely remembere there are a total of 5 drawings within that price.
