PARTS AND ITS FUNCTIONS

HISTORY

Classical Period (precolonial Era)

Nipa huts were the native houses of the indigenous people of the Philippines before the Spaniards arrived. They are still used today, especially in rural areas. Different architectural designs are present among the different ethno linguistic groups in the country, although all of them conform to being stilt houses, similar to those found in neighboring countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, and other countries of Southeast Asia.

The Bahay Kubo is the native house of the Philippines, and considered as a national shelter, a cultural heritage, and one of the most illustrative icons. Its name is actually based on Spanish word "Cubo" meaning cube because of its rectangular and cubic shape, and "Bahay" a filipino word for house. This Pre-Hispanic Architecture was constructed to perfectly adapt on Tropical Climate, and made of indigenous and organic materials like Bamboo and Nipa.

Colonial Era

The advent of the Spanish Colonial era introduced the idea of building more permanent communities with the Church and Government Center as a focal point. This new community setup made construction using heavier, more permanent materials desirable. Finding European construction styles impractical given local conditions, both Spanish and Filipino builders quickly adapted the characteristics of the Bahay Kubo and applied it to Antillean houses locally known as Bahay na Bato (Literally "stone house" in Tagalog).

HOW IS IT CONSTRUCTED?

CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS

PARTS AND ITS FUNCTIONS

Bahay Kubo is constructed out of organic materials, a showcase of extreme simplicity and sustainability that has been around for a very long time. Because the house is constructed with natural materials which are very inexpensive or most freely available in the near surroundings, it can quickly be rebuilt or repaired, using simple tools, if it is damaged or destroyed by fire or natural disasters like a typhoon or an earthquake.

Main Structure: Fabricated with the ever dependable Bamboo and banded together by tree strings with Dried Coconut Leaves or Cogon Grass.

PARTS AND ITS FUNCTIONS

Roofs: Made of Nipa or Anahaw

Walls: made of Nipa Leaves or Bamboo slats

Floor: made of finely split resilient Bamboo

There are awning type windows on all sides that can be sealed off from the elements by a series of sliding panels.

Its steeply sloping high-pitched roof shed rain and provides sufficient room for warm air to escape as a cooling air flow will enter through the porous bamboo walls and floor. 

PARTS AND ITS FUNCTIONS

SAGANG (railing)

A waist- level railing, made using bamboo used as an enclosed and protected porch area.

SIBI (eaves):
