Interviewer instructions
Record observation.

Survey Coordinators: Adapt the response categories to include locally relevant floor materials.

Circle the correct code for the material of the dwelling floor based on your observation. You will be able to observe the correct answer in most cases, but if in doubt, ask. If there is more than one kind of material making up the floor at different parts of the household, record the main flooring material (the material that covers the largest amount of floor space).
