The typologies, construction materials, construction system, envelopes of these buildings are quite different from each other. These buildings can be retrofitted with local construction materials using local workmanship at an affordable prices.This book talks about the safe construction practices in various vulnerable zones and construction techniques to retrofit various types of low strength masonry non engineered buildings with illustrations.
