In a post Apartheid South Africa, where housing is still a big issue, Authors of this book present a Building by sand method as an alternative, of building most effective and low cost homes to house million of South Africans. The Building by bag System, is a modified Timber frame house structure, with sand bag placed in between to make walls.
