Indonesia earthquake national disaster

moladi has been supplying its comprehensive national disaster construction system, of which the formwork is merely a constituent of this technology, for the past 23 years. As a result, we do not simply supply modular plastic formwork, but a holistic building technology, that has been specifically designed and is proven too benefit the end user with its simplicity and ease of use. has developed a cast house system to construct durable structures of quality in the shortest possible time and earthquake proof. This system has developed into a construction technology that addresses eight key challenges embodied in the low cost and affordable housing shortages facing developing countries namely:
lack of resources
insufficient funds
skills shortage
time constraint
work flow control
time constraints
waste
emergency re-construction

Traditional bricks or blocks are moulded in a small mould and then laboriously stacked by an artisan, sandwiched with mortar to create a wall. The electrical and water pipes are placed by grinding and chasing into the wall. The wall is then plastered to cover the pipes and services, as well as the brickwork, to create a level and smooth surface. A few disadvantages of brick or block construction are:

Labour intensive
Compressive capacity only
Skilled labour
Mortar shrinkage
Thermal expansion and contraction
Leveling
Erratic supplies = erratic delivery
Waste
Rework
Slow delivery
Inconsistent quality
Unpredictable cash flow
Increased cost
not earthquake proof

The patented technology is cost effective due to its repetitive application. It is affordable due to the fact that the formwork is used on a repetitive basis for up to 50 reuses per kit; this results in the cost of the formwork being amortized over the construction of 50 units. By combing the re-usable, patented, recyclable lightweight plastic injection moulded formwork system, with a South African Bureau of Standards approved lightweight aerated mortar, Agrément Certificate 94/231, a full scale mould of the designed house is configured with all the services, both plumbing and electrical, are cast in situ as a monolithic reinforced walling system. Chasing, beam filling, plastering and wastage are eliminated, producing a fast track, cost effective, transferable construction technology. In simple terms, has:
A constant supply of materials
Known costs
Unskilled operators
Next to no waste
Increased productivity
Reduced cost
Consistent quality
Predictable cash flow

What is the cost to 3D print a house?

What is the cost to 3D print a house? What is the cost to 3D print a house or rather the "walls" of a house? What is the cost to 3D print the walls of a house? Whenever there is a post regarding 3D printing of homes, we are tagged by friends and colleagues to respond to the advantages of moladi vs 3D Printing. We therefore want to make it quite clear that this post is published purely to summarise our take on the topic and to have the ability to reference these questions and statements without having to repeat what we see as inherent issues associated with the 3D printing process of houses. All of the numbers used for 3D printing cost purposes are assumed, as these cost are not readily available for the purpose of this cost example. We would invite any 3D printing entity to help with the actual numbers to take any guesswork out of the cost estimation. First 3D printing post in 2017:  3D Printing a house or is it in reality - 3D Printing Walls?    - Link The development of m

Emailing: allAfrica.com Angola President Dos Santos Confident About Sustainable Development (Page 1 of 1)

— The Angolan president, José Eduardo dos Santos, Monday here said that despite the consequences that Angola may suffer due to world economic crisis, it is intended to maintain the sustainable development model and the pace of strong economic growth.

It is noticed a strong fall of growth of economic activity, mainly in the United States of America and Europe, which is affecting the economies of African countries. The incomes of these countries have been reduced significantly, because the most developed economies are using less and less raw materials. The supply of these products has increased in the ma
