Which type of houses are there in heavy rain places?
Answers
They built steep roof houses so that the ice and rain water come down to the ground soon and it will not make any leakage on the roof .
In some areas the people also built huge tanks for collecting water below these steep roof houses, this is an example of rain water harvesting and then they use that water in different household works .
Hey there!!
In the places of high rainfall, the houses are generally built being leveled, it is built on a high raised platform, the reason for this is, where there is a lot of rainfall, there is a high chance for floods, and this magnitude could increase the blockage of sewers and results in the increase of the water level, if houses are not built high, there are high number of chances that water might enter the houses. Houses are generally built above a meter high from the ground.
The other types of houses are the houses with slanting roofs, this is only built where there is an exceptional sewage system, this helps in the water going down on to the ground and into the sewage, if there is a flat roof, it would be a hard time clearing it.
CONCLUSION - Places where there is a high rainfall, houses are built with the height and slanting roofs
