Interviewer instructions
Question 137 - the number of floors in the building:
This question concerns the number of floors in the building. This includes the basement as it is considered a one of the floors of the building. The room used for residence on the roof is considered a floor as well. It is not expected that the number of floors in a villa exceeds four floors. For the house it is two floors. With regard to the cave, hut, hair tent, caravan, tent, they all consist of one floor. The number of the floors is recorded as one floor.
For all cases, the enumerator records the number of floors in the corresponding field. It is preferable that the recording stage occurs after the enumerator finishes inputting data on all the housing units of the building. This makes it easy for him to determine the number of floors.
