given the growing scarcity of land for housing and the increasing land prices. Many households have
chosen for incremental self-construction; herewith sustainability does not have the highest priority.
One of the main reasons they chose a metal roof and not a shingle roof is to extend the durability of
the buildings, since metal roofs have a longer lifespan. In the last decade we have witnessed the
inclusion of the kinetic envelope in many typologies of buildings. It is argued in this paper that
sustainable goals for low-cost housing and applications are achievable. To confront this challenge,
green building has been famed as an auspicious strategy to alleviate energy-related carbon emissions
alongside climate change mitigation. This research investigates the important factors that have
relevance to green buildings and introduces several criteria of sustainable housing. We are a
participant in the International Living Future Institute’s JUST program and have signed NOMA

performance of the conventional and sustainable building technologies used in low-income housing
construction towards proposing the most sustainable technological solution for low-income housing
development in South Africa. This paper presents a review of the principal features of floating

policies designed to address problems in one area (e.g. house prices) create unanticipated trade-offs
in another (e.g. sprawl). Current efforts are usually based on addressing multiple criteria in isolation
and tend to overlook the process of achieving sustainability, hence affecting the success of a housing
policy or a sustainable affordable housing project. By conducting literature reviews, the paper
discusses the complexity of sustainable affordable housing s while critically analyzing different
characteristics found in the bottom-up and top-down approaches adopted by the professional
community to achieve sustainability. To browse Academia.edu and the wider internet faster and more

construction, there is also a focus on social sustainability, meaning a strong involvement of local
communities in the production of sustainable building materials for walls, newly developed
construction technologies, and mutual house and facility construction. Demand for affordable
housing outpaces supply in most of these settlements, with 1 in 3 low-income renters in Organisation
for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries spending more than 40% of their
budget on rent alone. The South African regulatory environment provides for the implementation of
innovative building technologies (IBT). Under this context, the structure has been found to be a
useful work-piece particularly after conducting the wind flow analysis across the building and the
evaluation of the wind and heat flow together with the total surface heat flow and solar heat flow
where it became clear that the building provided some insights on how other subsequent structures
during the Seljuk era should be constructed in terms of comfort and energy conservation.

designs, including environmental issues, aesthetic appearance, occupant comfort, and view; these
aspects make the envelope a multifunctional component, thus the integration approach is the optimal
method to address envelope design. The study is based on the health problems highlighting factors
affecting the health of the population in slums for example due to general environmental condition,
