Description

This book explores the integration of Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) with modern civil engineering to develop sustainable and climate-resilient infrastructure. It examines traditional practices such as vernacular architecture, water management systems, indigenous materials, and disaster-resilient construction through case studies from different regions of India. The chapters highlight how time-tested indigenous techniques can address contemporary challenges related to climate change, urbanization, and resource efficiency. By bridging traditional wisdom with modern technology, the book provides valuable insights for engineers, researchers, planners, and policymakers working towards sustainable infrastructure development.
