The contribution of building centres to low-cost housing in India

Keswani, K (1997) The contribution of building centres to low-cost housing in India. Building Research & Information, 25(1), pp. 50-64. ISSN 0961-3218

Abstract

The author argues that the government's role could change from being the provider to becoming a facilitator. Progress in the Building Centre Programme in India has been slow and a three pronged policy is advocated - examining archaic rules, disseminating technical information, and training in updated technologies whilst continuing with those technologies that are cost-effective.
