Journal Title: International Journal of Civil, Structural, Environmental and Infrastructure Engineering Research and Development (IJCSEIERD) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
The Scope of this Study revolves mainly around the importance and unique conceptual heritage of Tamil Nadu in the realm of Eco-friendly Architecture. Application of Environmental Engineering and Architectural aspects over the traditional Heritage of Tamil Nadu forms the core of this study. It extends to investigate the salient features of the Eco-friendly Architecture and Environmental Engineering Heritage of the Tamils from the classical to late medieval periods of Tamil Nadu. In this paper, an attempt has been made to focus attention on awareness of Environment as a major determining factor for evolution of the ancient Architectural Heritage in early Tamil Nadu. Materials and Methods The present work covers mostly the first three centuries of the Christian era, generally accepted as the age of the Sangam. The Sangam Literature furnishes us quite considerable information. This paper gives explanative way of interpretation. Hence the explorative method is adapted to analyze the data collected. The main sources of the data are taken from the Sangam classical works, Bakthi Literature and Epics, The modern technical concepts of Architecture and Environmental Engineering disciplines and field data also considered
