Constructing a house does not seem an easy task and surely it is not. You have to consider many things even before planning to construct it. The basic question is that where it is being constructed, accordingly you would then know the climate of that place and therefore the construction materials to be used.

Generally stones, rocks and bricks should be used to build houses where the place is prone to floods, tsunamis and typhoons. The examples of old churches can be considered as they have been standing strong for decades now.  In tropical areas you should use a lot of hays, grass and natural leaves for the purpose of construction. This gives a coolness and beauty to your houses. They are supported by strong wood and concrete structures to provide the requisite strength.

But nowadays it is best to use concrete slabs, aluminium, steel and reinforcing bars. They are the strongest and cannot be broken or cut easily. They provide protection from all calamities and are suitable for mostly all weather conditions. So now before constructing you can at least be sanguine about what materials you should use.
