This is not the perfect way of working. In Madras roofing we do not use cement at all. First layer is wooden rafter that is teak wood teak wood is having oil content so termite will not attack the wood or palm wood. If you use palm tree wood then you have to apply cashew nut oil on the palm wood and every six year you should apply the same oil to termite will not attack. 2nd layer is 3x1x6 brick which is bind with lime mortar and three inch height 35degree slope. lime mortar 1:2 ration also need to consider the calcium level in the lime above 70percent. and waterproofing material is kadukkai jaggery mixed water but kadukkai jaggery water should fermented for 10 days. 3rd layer is same 3x1x6 brick should be laying on top of the second layer. 4th lime sand brick jelli mixture 5th and 6th terracotta tile

Great to see, finally! Although this is a modified version of Madras Roofing, it still looks wonderful 👌 Thanks for experimenting with these traditional architectural concepts and reintroducing them to the world.

You are right. Lime mortar making is bit lengthy process. Earlier they used to have bullock moving as a merry go round and with a grinder moving along it used to crush lime and make homogeneous mixture alongwith mixing other elements sometimes jaggery.

Instead of wooden rafter they can also use precast or cast in situ rib concrete beams but it may need some shuttering work and reinforcement so that satisfies the serviceability condition.

Also traditional mixture used contains kal sunnambu ( rock lime), Karu Patti ( palm jaggery contains molasses and dark brown in colour), kadukkai berry. The last two are for better adhesion and water proofing. Don't buy kilinJal sunnambu (shell lime) for roof work. For wooden rafters use mundhiri ennai ( cashew nut skin is removed by roasting, it contains termite proof oil, it is darker in colour), similar to linseed oil, available around Pudukkottai regions.

Just to point out a few things. Since it is Madras type roof. And it is being made since ancient times. At that time cement was not available. So how did the roof survive? It may take a longer time if you use lime. How much time? If you are going to introduce cement then what is the purpose? even water proofing, in the good old days, how the water proofing was done? Mam, I am all your videos. I don't think that cement should be involved at all.

In many places there is no awareness regarding this sustainable house construction, so even if someone like me want to build a sustainable house, I can't. No.1 reason is there are no architect in my state/rigion who are practicing sustainable construction. The local labourers have no experience to work on a sustainable building. No.3 is row material for such construction like lime plaster, wooden frames, stones, brick tiles, are not easily available.
We face all 3 hurdles that you mentioned. But if you are willing to persevere, you will find ways to make it happen. 1. Our architect had never built a house like this before, but we researched together and supported each other. 2. Local masons had no experience in this construction method - we got masons from Auroville and Udaipur to train them on rammed earth & lime plasters respectively, and they learnt quickly and managed to make it. 3. If you ask around you will find all materials locally. It is not that difficult. Do try.

Hello Ma’am! I have been following the progress of Anandaa Permaculture since the time you started putting out the videos and what a brilliant job you and your family have done of documenting this for the rest for us! We have a small plot of land in Kerala on which we are planning to build our family home. I quite loved the idea of Rohtak Domes (and to a lesser extent Madras Roof). I have a question - will either of these options be suitable for a heavy rainfall region like Kerala? Would love to hear your thoughts.
Thank you Rajesh. Heavy rainfall should not be an issue, but you probably need overhangs to protect your walls and thats why traditional sloping roofs may be better for Kerala. But best to consult an architect and discuss the options

For better structure support
Very informative 😊
Glad you think so!
Hello. Will this stay stronger and longer as the one which was constructed using the lime mortar?
They should. Because its not the mortar that gives away, its the steel. And there is no steel in this roof

Can this madras roof take the load of another floor ? I doubt it's load bearing capacity.
We have not made another floor on it, but it is our understanding that it can take the load of another floor
How do you setup the electrical lines in a exposed roof like this?
You lay the pipes on top of the brick layer and beneath the waterproofing + tile layer

Instead of wooden rafter they can also use precast or cast in situ rib concrete beams but it may need some shuttering work and reinforcement so that satisfies the serviceability condition.
Madam please advice this structure is durable and what maintenance is required
It is quite durable and no maintenance is required so far.
@@farmaanandaa yearly any maintenance is required? How many year is completed since you have constructed I have also contacted Narayan ji he is good guy thanks for valuable reference

Hi, great work. How to get in touch with you regarding a residential project in Gurgaon
Pls visit www.aanandaa.com
There will be rain water leakage problems thru the gaps of the tiles later in future.will become difficult and impossible to attend to it and rectify.I have personally experienced it.
I a sorry, sould have mentioned there is a full water proofing layer on top of the brick tile layer. Before we did the slopes and final pavit tiles
very nice

If you want hardened lime for plaster, it is available in kazhughu malai regions of Tamil Nadu
Good to know that. Will reach out for any future projects
Also traditional mixture used contains kal sunnambu ( rock lime), Karu Patti ( palm jaggery contains molasses and dark brown in colour), kadukkai berry. The last two are for better adhesion and water proofing. Don't buy kilinJal sunnambu (shell lime) for roof work. For wooden rafters use mundhiri ennai ( cashew nut skin is removed by roasting, it contains termite proof oil, it is darker in colour), similar to linseed oil, available around Pudukkottai regions. There are lots of cheaters, stay safe, and all the best for your sustainable building projects. Bye

@@surajramakrishnan7141 very true, these structures always use compression and balance, steel rod used inside concrete improves tensile strength, so when heavy rain or flood or nearby construction etc occurs, there will be shift/disturbance in sub soil layers, wood rafters don't go through quality control in factory, now in this rain I have come across personally 2 houses which had CATASTROPHIC FAILURE.
Mam, please share mortor material

Hi Mam
I am planning to build my Tin shade home in one of the village in Dehradun, Dehradun receive a plenty of rainfall so how about of we make a doom roof or madras roof certainty of seepage
You can make either. You will need to put a waterproofing layer on top of the brick work and then finjsb it with bricktiles or pavit tiles. Your architect will be able to guide you more
@@farmaanandaa Thanks 😊
What you saw in this video is no where near to a madras terrace roofing except the woodden logs and the brick alignment....

The strength of the madras roof is based on the mortar, the lime mortar. I don’t know how effective it will be to use cement.
Should be similar in the short run. May not last 100s of years like line though

Just to point out a few things. Since it is Madras type roof. And it is being made since ancient times. At that time cement was not available. So how did the roof survive? It may take a longer time if you use lime. How much time? If you are going to introduce cement then what is the purpose? even water proofing, in the good old days, how the water proofing was done? Mam, I am all your videos. I don't think that cement should be involved at all.
All good points. Do share with us how you built your house without any cement. Would be happy to learn. This is the best we could do :-(
It's very nice of you to give information about Madras roof. Can you please tell who (Mason) is there to construct a small roof for our farm house in Chandigarh?

In many places there is no awareness regarding this sustainable house construction, so even if someone like me want to build a sustainable house, I can't. No.1 reason is there are no architect in my state/rigion who are practicing sustainable construction. The local labourers have no experience to work on a sustainable building.
No.3 is row material for such construction like lime plaster, wooden frames, stones, brick tiles, are not easily available.
We face all 3 hurdles that you mentioned. But if you are willing to persevere, you will find ways to make it happen. 1. Our architect had never built a house like this before, but we researched together and supported each other. 2. Local masons had no experience in this construction method - we got masons from Auroville and Udaipur to train them on rammed earth & lime plasters respectively, and they learnt quickly and managed to make it. 3. If you ask around you will find all materials locally. It is not that difficult. Do try.

Hello Ma’am! I have been following the progress of Anandaa Permaculture since the time you started putting out the videos and what a brilliant job you and your family have done of documenting this for the rest for us!
We have a small plot of land in Kerala on which we are planning to build our family home. I quite loved the idea of Rohtak Domes (and to a lesser extent Madras Roof). I have a question - will either of these options be suitable for a heavy rainfall region like Kerala? Would love to hear your thoughts.
Thank you Rajesh.
Heavy rainfall should not be an issue, but you probably need overhangs to protect your walls and thats why traditional sloping roofs may be better for Kerala. But best to consult an architect and discuss the options

Atleast use jaali or mesh to protect
Protect what?
This wont work. Meaning, using cement instead of lime. Unless you did some waterproofing before the tiles layer
Oh yes we did do water proofing. Should have mentioned it.
How was water proofing done ?
Madras terrace roofing has been there for centuries... those architects trying to replicate the approach arent aware of the intricacies involved... so blindly dont say tht it wont work...

Thank you for the warning. It looks like this house had no maintenance and upkeep at all!
My house 52 year old near the ocean are and has this type roof
But yes it is two times costly then the concrete
One can replace the wooden rafters with steel if one is worried about wood failing . People only think of problems and not good ideas
@666madhusudhan double work. After installing these types of ceiling.
DID YOU INSTALLED ANOTHER TWO MAJOR LAYER ON IT. THERE SHOULD ONE HORIZONTAL BRICK LAYER THAN LIME CREATE AND FINALLY WATER PROOFING LAYER. ONLY FIRST LAYER OF BRICK IS TRUE MADRAS ROOF.
We have plastered on top of the Madras roof and use reflective tiles to finish it
