Editor's Notes
Logic, measurement points
*process map, choke points (possible pitfalls)
-after year 1, need to have X done
-after year
-what is the community left with?
-education
-trained workers
-ability to rebuild
-150,000 people in specific district (name?)

Our approach will be culturally acceptable to the people of Bangladesh because it uses naturally available, renewable materials and local labor skills in innovative ways to provide greater security in the case of natural disaster. After each step of our 3-step housing construction plan, we will assess not only the quantitative results (i.e., the number of structures built, amount of bamboo planted/harvested/processed, etc.), but also the qualitative impact on the target group (their satisfaction with the structures and any concerns they may have).
Notes:
We recognize that everyone needs help and that is why we are taking an objective approach (we don’t need to elaborate this bullet point because we will have already covered this in a previous slide)
Furthermore, this approach is humane because it will offer people aid in return for work. There isn’t a shortage of food or water so there won’t be an issue of adequately rewarding aid in return for work. More importantly many people don’t have very much to do and employing them would give them something to do.
Additionally this approach respects the culture because it isn’t removing any of their societal norms. We are using their existing social setup to effectively implement our plan because we will be consulting their village leaders for information.
Legal Issue
Can’t give the village leader money because we will be indicted.
Instead of money, we will offer consultation because then the village leader will have some sense of power and control.
Slide:
Respects the laws of the country
Objective
-Using statistical data to identify target population
Humane
-People will receive aid in return for work
Respects the culture
-Works with existing social setup
100,000 houses destroyed, allocating 50% of 20 million to rebuild 25k houses
Central buildingsGeographically hardest hit
Take into Account initial financial wealth
“helicopter flyovers” or satellite system
Maintain equality
Grading system
Bamboo
Flood damage minimization
Money generating
Agriculture irrigation
Give the people shovels make workers work
Aid is your incentive
You work, you get credit, you get aid (get workers to work)
Village education
Domino effect
Specific cohort teams community cohesion
-Reaches height in 1 year (4-39 inches in 24 hours), grows in width over 6-8 years
-renewable, ready for harvest in 3-7 years (at end of dry season to avoid damage)
-utilize Phyllostachys “timber bamboo” from china 30 m tall
-grows in numerous climates (including India – wetlands to drought): will die in freezing climates, but in this area, min temp is 55F, max 90F, perfect for bamboo
-treat with borax or boric acid, or boil to remove starches (insects)
-treat bamboo for use in reinforcement in concrete
-stripping bamboo
-tension strength: (vs. steel: )
-bending strength: (vs. steel: )
-compression strength: (vs. steel: )
*design: hollow tube, strongest material properties

Bamboo house website: http://www.bamboohouseindia.org/bamboo.asp
Steel: A36 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A36_steel)
Bamboo:
Concerete:
Overall Design – Geometric dome frame, roughly 5m in diameter.
Foundation – Bamboo reinforced concrete. Splinted bamboo will be tied together and will then be tied to each triangle tip shown at the bottom of the above dome. This splinted bamboo will be tied down and put into at least 2 feet deep holes that will then be filled with cement.
The bamboo will only be splinted after it has been cut and allowed to dry and season for 3-4 weeks prior to using
Splinting – Easy to do by separating base with a sharp knife and then pulling a dull blade through the center of the bamboo. The dull blade forces the steme to split open continuous fibers and straight section
Strength – 1.5m long pieces of foll-section bamboo culms connected in triangle trusses to make the entire structure rigid.
Joints – Connecting points are where the individual bamboo clums meet, the ends are bevelled/slanted and tied together as shown in color picture
Roof/Walls – will be made at the villager’s discretion, can be made of organic materials (leaves, grass, straw, etc) or out of donated clothing etc. The low weight coverings ensure that even if the walls/roof are blown away due to high winds, the entire structure will not be taken with them.
EWB
Aims to use smaller scale infrastructure projects within an overall community program framework
Rooted in practical engineering concepts without losing socio-cultural dimensions of international development work
EWB fully partners with local NGOs and local communities local community members are trained to monitor and maintain the projects, which ensures sustainability
Will deliver the technical skills via a team of volunteer engineers, while also showing the villagers that they are capable of rebuilding their homes in an even better way then they could have ever imagined
Partnership with Local NGOs
Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC) – Started in 1972, conducted one of the largest NGO responses to Cyclone Sidr which hit vast areas of the south-western coast in Bangladesh in mid-November 2007. BRAC distributed emergency relief materials, including food and clothing, to over 900,000 survivors, provided medical care to over 60,000 victims and secured safe supplies of drinking water. BRAC is now focusing on long-term rehabilitation, which will include agriculture support, infrastructure reconstruction and livelihood regeneration
Propagation Knowledge
EWB will work the district leaders and local NGOs to directly rebuild one community. The other district leaders will be present or have representatives present who can bring the knowledge from one community to their own community, and the skills will self-propogated accordingly
Additionally, the team of local leaders that are trained by EWB will be expected to help the other areas effected by Sidr
Local impact: ecotourism, rebuilding livelihoods
-working with foundations, updating policies on working with local government, government bribery (?problem – lesser of 2 evils),
-logistics: jobs, pay the people
-engineers: 50,000
-general workers (locals): 30/day *50,000 workers =
-consulting:
-architecture:
Immediate shelter, Phase 1
*algorithm of our pitch example of shelter
*focus on infrastructure
-free flow model: many back ups, assess frequently with a lot of flexibility (outcome measures)
Transfer Economic Responsibility
Promote Ownership
Checks and balances, what do you want? keep people happy, promote trust…
Bee keeping, tourism, etc.
Maintain Healthy Behaviors
Pass down through generations
