In order to help solve the problems of housing for the lower middle income families, two housing systems were designed based on a design criteria for low-cost houses which is modified to suit the lower middle income group. The housing systems utilize locally mass-produced material and the construction does not require sophisticated construction equipment. The housing systems are also designed to meet the requirements of the Thai National Standard Specification, Minimum Standard for Housing and Environment (1). The two houses are simple to build with the employment of semi-skilled labour and locally prefabricated materials. Load bearing concrete block wall with asbestos cement large panel roof is adopted for the first system while a hybrid system of concrete block wall and corrugated asbestos cement panel is selected for the other system. Each house covers 73.5 square meters of plinth area and the total cost being in the vicinity of 60,000 each.
