Pakistan needs to built flood resistant houses, the recent floods have hit the areas of Sindh and south Punjab so badly, with the increasing impacts of global warming we need to adopt innovation in our construction industry to save our people from catastrophes
depends on the components, the submersible sections (steel anchorage piles, negative subfloor and floating barrels) probably need to be changed/ serviced regularly (this area of the Mekong delta tends to have low pH water). the upper/ dry sections probably can last for a very long time (30 years if they dont get an extremely big typhoon).
You can embellish this idea: The docking at coastal marinas use a floating technique to accommodate high and low tides.
I'm living in the river bank area in Jakarta and I'm considering to apply this to my house.
The copyright for floating house is received by a 12 yr old girl Vishalini from TamilNadu,India. She received it 6 yrs back

Those drums will become rusty and might get damaged causing failure to float the House!
