Housing Research at the National Bureau of Standards
The Central Building Research Institute is to be commended for the achievement of relevance between the requirements of the people of India and their building research efforts. This has been accomplished by a steadfast adherence to the principle that sophisticated science can be turned to practical applications by research which recognizes the need to gear these applications into the patterns of everyday life in India. The thrust of this paper is to establish the realization that 'Housing is a Social Process,' since it involves a continuously changing interrelationship between national cultural goals, the designers, builders, and users. This realization is achieved to a varying degree from one culture to another. Some of the work described herein will show courses of action which can enhance the social significance of the building process.
