Manual on Design for Low-Cost and Aided Self-Help Housing
Since World War II, the desires--and real needs--for better homes have intensified. For economic, social, and political reasons great interest has developed in improving shelter for the ill-housed majority of the people of the world. In many countries, families, except those in the higher income group, build the houses they occupy. Self-help is the accepted way to build a house using local, readily available materials and the labor of each family. The basic principles of good design for aided self-help are really no different than those of good design anywhere. Effective arrangement; simple construction techniques; and efficient use of labor and materials, all considered in proper relation to local conditions, customs, desires, and taboos, can go far toward providing durable, livable houses within available money resources.
