Question 3. What is the main material making up the exterior walls of this household?

By observation, fill in the correct answer for the main material of the exterior walls of the household. If there are equal proportions of two or more materials, record the one with the best quality. The following situations illustrate some examples:

Example 1: When you arrive at the household and the walls are built mainly of concrete or concrete blocks and the rest of the walls are made out of wood planks, fill in code 1.

Example 2: If the walls of a house are made out of concrete or concrete blocks, but the same house contains equal parts of palm fronds or wood planks, then you should fill in the bubble with code 1 "Concrete or concrete block".
