Abstract : One of the major causes of non engineered structure failure is the lack of proper construction technique of mud wall in the rural areas of Tripura. A further barrier in this field is the socio-economic challenges in low income communities where non engineered housing is prevalent. This paper solely introduces the basic retrofitting technique and its advantages on preventing sudden collapse of traditional mud wall houses at Tripura

Keywords : Seismicity; Non-Engineered Structures; Bamboo Retrofitting; Shake Table Test.
