Theory vs Skill - Theoretical vs Practical Theory vs Skill - Theoretical vs Practical How can we fix the South African economy and create jobs?  -  Prince Mashele Quote:  Prince Mashele, executive director of the Centre for Politics and Research, does not pull any punches about the state of unemployment in the country and who is responsible. He asks three questions: Who are these people who are unemployed? Why are they are unemployed? What must be done to employ them. “Less than 5% of the people who are unemployed are white. Why? Because they have the skills. We have an education crisis which keeps poor black people from getting the skills they need. We need to set up factories and produce things,” he said.  Unquote Perhaps people think that having a degree guarantees success.  Could this be the reason for  # FeesmustFall ? Free EDUCATION - Now WHAT? Very true... "skills" broaden your chances of being successful. It allows o...

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...

Brick and Mortar vs. Injection Moulded Construction System - moladi moladi   Construction Process - Video Link Disrupting the Mould DISRUPTING THE MOLD   The inefficiencies of moulding a brick or block in a mould then tasking an artisan to lay them. Then chase the walls for water and electrical services. Then relying on another artisan to plaster the walls. Depending on the skills and ability of artisans to produce a house vs. casting a house in a mould employing unskilled workers – eliminating the need to chase and plaster, in a day, at a known cost.

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...
