Help develop a guide for safer rural buildings
It's competition day at L+L... this one by Architecture for Humanity.
In an effort to improve the long term shelter needs of those displaced by the Kashmir earthquake, the competition seeks to assemble a manual for distributing knowledge of earthquake resistant housing construction to make sure that homes are rebuilt safely and potentially save lives in the future.
It is free to enter and teams have until January 20th 2006 to put together schemes that utilize local materials and technology.
