Guidelines for construction and repairs in Haiti_French

Hi Alexander,

The Haitian Ministry of Interior (MICT - Ministère de l’Intérieur et des Collectivités Territoriales) has recently presented a 124 page booklet about best practices for small buildings (RCC + masonry), entitled ‘Guide de bonnes pratiques pour la reconstruction de petits bâtiments en maçonnerie chainée en Haïti’, funded by the World Bank. You can download it at the following web address:

You can also find the Guideline for repairs entitled ‘Guide pratique de réparation de petits bâtiments en Haïti’ here:

I hope this helps! Federica
