Roofing in Developing Countries. Research for New Technologies
More than 80 developing countries suffer from an acute housing shortage, principally because of the ever-increasing need for new housing created by expanding populations and the periodic large-scale loss of housing from natural disasters. The report presents the committee's conclusions and recommendations concerning areas of research and kinds of materials indicating significant potential for the development of new roofing technologies that could provide early solution to the particular problems of developing countries. Ten appendices address various technical aspects of potential new roofing technologies.
