Sustainable and Affordable Housing for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) Using Shipping Container

Abstract

Many communities require long-term, low-cost EWS housing. This study offers shipping container EWS dwellings. Container homes are eco-friendly as freight container are reused. Second, shipping containers are strong, weatherproof, and portable, ideal for fast building and transfer [1]. Finally, modular containers offer customization and design. This study examines shipping container EWS housing. Insulation, ventilation, and imaginative layout are researched container-friendly design and construction alternatives. Green spaces, rainwater collection, and alternative energy boost these homes' environmental performance and livability [9]. EWS container housing, examines if public-private partnerships and finance can make container construction affordable to the intended population. Container-based housing improves community engagement, capacity, and amenities. Better housing, ownership, and skills may aid EWS. This study suggests shipping containers might house low-income families securely and inexpensively. These findings may help politicians, urban planners, and housing organizations provide sustainable housing for economically disadvantaged people, making cities more inclusive and resilient.
