About Addition I
Taiwanese Squatter House

Due to the weather in Taiwan, there are lots of buildings that were built by concrete and steel, Thus, the humidity won’t cause damage to the buildings during the rainy season. Since Taiwan is a small island, people won’t tolerate wasted space, that’s also why you can see houses made of sheet metal.

There are many advantages to having sheet metal on your rooftop, it frequently rains in Taiwan, with a metal roof, you can still dry your clothes during the rainy season, and the low cost and light quality won’t add a heavy loading on you nor the rooftop. 

To sum up, that’s why there are hundreds of thousands of houses made of metal in Taiwan. On the contrary, it also ruins the appearance of our city.

由於台灣氣候因素,建築物以鋼筋水泥建構為常態,在雨季時較不會因潮濕現象對建築物有所損害。台灣地小人稠,屋頂的空間則是違章加蓋的首選,這也是鐵皮屋如此常見的原因。

鐵皮屋也擁有一些好處,鐵皮能提供經常下雨的台灣生活便利,雨季時衣服也較容易乾。以及成本低、重量輕、不會對屋頂增加負擔等。

綜合以上原因,台灣的鐵皮屋頂數量相當多。但相對的,台灣住宅面貌也隨著被破壞。
