Students and Faculty from the Mackintosh School of Architecture, Glasgow School of Art, join hands with KAPIT as Volunteers

Starting 9th January 2006, the Glasgow team is helping construct a demonstration house in Sachan, Mansehra district. The house will follow the KAPIT earthquake-resistant architectural design but will also incorporate modifications based on further research and observations about how local construction can be practical, locally-appropriate, and economical while having seismic-resistance. KAPIT and the visiting team hopes that through the demonstration house, residents of the town and surrounding areas will be able to easily understand and adopt these safer building methods and strategies.
