## Description

The World Housing Encyclopedia (WHE) is a collaborative initiative by the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) and the International Association for Earthquake Engineering (IAEE). Its primary mission is to compile and disseminate valuable resources related to housing construction practices in seismically active regions globally. The WHE features an extensive database of over 170 housing profiles, providing in-depth insights into various construction types from more than 45 countries, authored by professionals in architecture and engineering.

In addition to the housing reports, the site offers tutorials that guide users through building earthquake-resistant structures, promoting the use of advanced construction technologies. Key contributions include the Confined Masonry Design Guide and resources tailored for developing countries, highlighting methods like adobe, reinforced concrete, and timber construction. Collaborations with projects like WHE-PAGER and the Confined Masonry Network further enhance its offerings, making WHE a pivotal resource for professionals seeking knowledge on safe building practices in earthquake-prone areas.
