1.0: Glossary
Self-Build(er)

Self-Build can be described as the production of one or more homes intended to be lived in by the Self-Builder. The Self-Builders’ own input can vary. It can involve Self-Deign and/or construction; a Project Manager role; contracting a Principal Contractor– and can include both on and off-site fabrication. New schemes are emerging: the term can refer to Group-Builds implemented by public bodies that may include ‘sweat equity’. (See fig.8 page18).
Sweat Equity
“Sweat equity is a term used to describe when a person contributes their time, labour, and effort to a project. It’s a non-monetary exchange used to cut costs and increase value. You’re putting in your own “sweat” instead of hiring someone else to execute a job” (Merrill, 2022).
GIS
“A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer system for capturing, storing, checking, and displaying data related to positions on Earth’s surface” (Society, 2022).
Everyperson Archetype
“Sometimes referred to as the good neighbour, silent majority, good old boy, common man, or person next door, the Everyperson is a little bit of you, a little bit of me, and a little bit of everyone else, too” (Hudnall, 2021). The Everyperson stands on equal footing with all of ones peers wanting the same objective, good health, financial security and a sense of belonging”.
Local Development Order
“An Order made by a local planning authority (LPA) (under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990) that grants planning permission for a specific development proposal or classes of development” (Planning Advisory Service, 2019).
