Question post text
OTHER DWELLINGS
FLOOR AREA OF ROOMS
Interviewer instructions
This question attempts to establish the floor area available for the household, together with GO9, it will be used to derive the level of congestion when the persons per room are derived.

The room sizes of all the habitable room both in the main dwelling and other dwellings should be captured.

Remember to be objective and courteous when requesting the respondent to take measurement of the rooms. Avoid arguing with the respondent on this question.

For respondents who are aware of their room sizes, do not insist of them actually taking the measurements while you are there. If they request for time to take the measurement then cooperate and record the measurements in a subsequent visit.

You may try to confirm the accuracy of measurements given. E.g. sitting rooms are often (not always) larger than bedrooms for instance, compare the measurement to confirm accuracy.

Most people in the rural areas are conversant with measurements in feet. For this reason the measurements for room sizes will all be taken in feet for consistency. Therefore when given measurement in meters you will convert into sq feet for recording in the questionnaire to 2 decimal places.

Conversion 1 square feet = 0.092903 square metres

Some room shapes are not very regular remember to apply mathematical methodologies to derive the respective room sizes.

e.g. for a room of the following shape

Room Size(A) = (A+B) - (B)




You will be provided with the tape measure that you will give the respondent to use in taking measurements.
