It will also be torn into strands by wind and rain, eventually causing the roof to leak.

Therefore, Han Xiaokang planned to use bamboo to build all the roofs, so more bamboo would have to be cut down.

Don't think that you can't use moso bamboo to make a roof. In fact, a roof made of bamboo is denser and more durable than thatch.

The specific construction method is: break the moso bamboo in half, and then remove all the bamboo knots inside.

Then according to the length of the roof, these moso bamboos are cut to the appropriate length.

Next, take the processed moso bamboo and fold it forward and backward, just like this.

Finally, use nails to fix it to the beam.

At this point, the roof is ready.

The moso bamboo roof made in this way looks a bit like the glazed tiles of later generations from a distance.

There is absolutely no water leakage.

However, the roof made of moso bamboo may crack after being exposed to wind and sun for a long time, resulting in water leakage.

Han Xiaokang estimates that such a roof can only last for 2 or 3 years at most.

At that time, the roof will have to be lifted off and rebuilt again.
