Table H-3A |
Distribution of census houses by predominant material of roof |
This table gives the distribution of census houses by the predominant material of roof. The materials of roof are grouped into 9 broad categories such as Grass, Thatch, Bamboo, Wood, Mud, etc.; Plastic, Polythene; Tiles; Slate; G.I., Metal, Asbestos sheets; Brick; Stone; Concrete and any other material. For determining the material of the roof, the predominant material used for the outer roof exposed to the weather and not the inside ceiling was considered. However, in the case of multi-storeyed buildings the intervening floor constituted the roof of the lower floor. This table shows the types of roof material used in census houses. The data in this table are presented for total, rural and urban areas separately.
