New building technology moladi introduced to Nigeria  - new building technology Promoters of a new building technology, moladi , introduced into Nigerian housing market recently have said that the new technology will produce houses that will resist fire or burglary incidents in home. According to them, the new technology might be the means through which homeownership dream of an average Nigerian home seeker would be realised as it is going to deliver a modest three-bedroom flat at an 'affordable' cost of N3.7 million. Hennie Botes, chief executive officer, Moladi Worldwide, the building technology firm that brought the new technology into Nigeria, at a media briefing in Lagos described it as just simple, explaining that it involves a very simple operation. To Botes, all that is needed to produce a wall is to "fill the framework (the mode) with a mixture of sand and cement; the next day, remove the mode and the structure that stays behind is the wall which is much st...

Housing construction costs in Yemen: Affordability & Purchasing Power - Middle East News

Housing construction costs in Yemen: Affordability & Purchasing Power - Middle East News : The substantial problem of a housing shortage is becoming an enduring feature in Yemen. All the same, the response to housing needs was hasty. Construction projects were executed using inappropriate and costly construction and design practices resulting in low-quality housing, causing further escalation in construction and housing costs to prices beyond the financial reach of the majority of the population in Yemen. A report by Dr. Basel Sultan.Improving the construction and housing sector is essential for several reasons. First for economic reasons, the performance of the construction & housing sector has a considerable influence on the overall economy where it contributes seven to 15 percent of the Gross National Product (GNP). Secondly, for social reasons, because housing is a basic human need. Third, for environmental reasons in order to reduce the consumption of resources, especially...

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 de...

Currently, sub-Saharan Africa alone has an estimated housing deficit of 30 million units and every year, the backlog of houses across Africa’s 54 countries collectively increases by 4 million houses. With the population of the African continent expected to reach a staggering 2 billion people by 2050, almost twice the population number estimated in 2010, it is a stark reality that every year, there will be more and more people needing homes, over and above the current demand.  reduce cost of housing construction Although the extensive and many complex difficulties, relating to the delivery of a...
