Abstract

Urban India suffers from a massive shortage of adequate housing. The demand for adequate and affordable housing is expected to grow further in the decades to come as India urbanises rapidly. Mass housing projects will gain importance to supply housing to the lower- and middleincome segments in Indian cities. This paper discusses the scope for alternate construction technologies to build mass housing.
