Thanks for this Eric. I've not heard of Cameron Sinclair before but a quick Google found this. His work is fantastic.

He called it free CAD software.

Eric,
Thanks for the link. I have been doing some pro-bono work for an organization called "Every Child Ministries" headquartered in Hebron, Indiana, that has a regular program of building shelters, schools, clinics etc. in Africa - recently in Congo. I have forwarded the interview with Sinclair to the director. They typically load up one or two ship containers of materials and equipment and take it to wherever they are working and build pretty much conventional structures -- maybe this will give them something to think about, it certainly has given me some thoughts.
Thanks again
Jim
