Abstract

The global challenge of providing adequate hous- ing for burgeoning populations, especially in eco- nomically disadvantaged regions, necessitates in- novative approaches to construction. This study presents an experimental investigation into the feasibility and effectiveness of self-sustainable materials for low-cost housing solutions. By lev- eraging sustainable materials, this research aims to address the dual challenges of affordability and environmental impact in housing construction. The study employs a combination of quantitative analysis and qualitative assessment to evaluate the performance of various self-sustainable mate- rials in the context of low-cost housing. These ma- terials encompass a range of options including re- cycled materials, locally sourced natural re- sources, and innovative composites designed for affordability, durability, and eco-friendliness. Key parameters examined include structural in- tegrity, thermal insulation properties, moisture re- sistance, and overall environmental footprint.Experimental methodologies include laboratory testing, field trials, and computational modelling to comprehensively assess the suitability of the se- lected materials for low-cost housing applica- tions. Findings from this investigation contribute valuable insights into the viability of self-sustain- able materials for addressing housing challenges in resource-constrained communities. The results not only inform the development of cost-effective housing solutions but also underscore the im- portance of sustainable practices in mitigating en- vironmental impacts associated with construction activities. Ultimately, this research endeavours to bridge the gap between sustainable materials innovation and practical implementation, offering tangible path- ways towards the realization of affordable, eco- friendly housing solutions for communities worldwide.
