STUDY ON THE STATUS OF LOCAL TIMBER RESOURCES AND IT'S FUTURE POTENTIAL IN HASSAN DISTRICT
Present scenario and need for the study Timber is a very important natural resource which supported local/ regional building construction activities of man from early civilization. Growth and abundance of particular timber species is specifically connected to its geographical context, namely to its climatic and soil condition. A plant / timber species has an ecological niche and it is part of local biodiversity web. So its growth, utilization and decay within a geographical context play a critical role in maintaining a healthy environment. As a locally available material timber also influence the development of vernacular architectural form and character. It also has a strong contribution in nurturing local craft tradition.
Proposed
study project would attempt to identify local demand of
timber through estimating present pattern of consumption
in local building sector. Project will also investigate
the potential of local land and climate to regenerate
local timber species. Assessment of performance of local
timbers in traditional construction will be highlighted
through a scientific documentation.
