| Summary, etc | India has a rich history of building temples, monuments, well-planned cities, palaces, buildings, dams, water tanks, reservoirs, bridges, you name it. While our current curriculum of civil engineering relies only the modern theories and practices largely imported from the West, if we dig deep enough we could find a large treasure of advanced civil engineering practices and architectural designs backed by deep knowledge and theories even in our hoary past. Termed as Vastushastra or Shilpashastra, this branch of vidya covered everything from building palaces and temples to dams and bridges. One such ancient Sanskrit text of Vastushastra is “Narada Shilpashastra” attributed to Sage Narada and in its current form is dated to around 6th century CE Prof. R.N. Iyengar himself a renowned Civil Engineer, helped by two reputed Sanskrit scholars, has for the first time brought out this unique Sanskrit text on the theory and practice of Architectural Civil Engineering in ancient India with Introduction, translation, notes and figures. <br/><br/>http://indiafacts.org/narada-silpasastra-sanskrit-text-on-architectural-civil-engineering/ |
