Use housing construction to empower people, fix the economy and create sustainable smart villages.
Botes — whose company Moladi Construction has delivered formwork homes, schools and government buildings in 20 countries around the world — said the move to overcome poverty and unemployment needed to be leveraged around another key SA dilemma.

“Fourteen per cent of South Africans cannot afford to buy food, 10-million are unemployed and there is a backlog of three-million houses,” he said.

“We must use this backlog to stimulate the industrialisation of the housing production line.

“We can fight poverty, unemployment and associated social ills like crime through housing.

“It’s a matter of connecting the dots.

“And we need to begin by establishing community-based co-operatives and empower people to help themselves.”


The members of each co-operative would be trained in the multiple different skills, from welding and plumbing to electrical work and plumbing, required to build their own formwork homes, he said.


“They can then take these skills into the mainstream economy and establish sustainable businesses, producing a win-win scenario for SA and its people.”

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.
