In 1986, with the intended
purpose of "housing the
nations", moladi
embarked on an endeavour to develop a system to construct durable
structures of quality in the shortest possible time. This system
has developed into a construction technology that addresses seven 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

how walls are built
conventionally |
|
| |
- traditionally
bricks or blocks are
moulded
in a small
mould and then laboriously stacked by an artisan, sandwiched
with mortar to create a wall.
- then
grind and chop the wall to place water and electrical pipes.
- then the wall
is plastered to cover the pipes and services and to level the
wall.

- a unique alternate

-
combining
a re usable, patented, recyclable
lightweight plastic
injection moulded form work system, branded as
moladi
we
create a mould the size of the designed house and cast all the
services, electrical and plumbing, in situ using a
South African
Bureau of Standards approved lightweight aerated
mortar Agrément
Certificate 94/231 creating a cast in situ monolithic
reinforced walling system. Eliminating
chasing, beam filling, plastering and waste. The result, a
fast track cost effective, transferable construction technology.

Award
and aims at providing
millions of people around the world to obtain equity in their
country by providing them with homes that are of a high standard and
at a reduced cost.
-
is a unique patented plastic injection moulded form work
system, which produces cast-in-place mortar structures.
-
is a fast, simple, adaptable and a low construction cost technological
building system.
-
is suitable for all types of buildings, yet it is highly suited for
use in mass housing markets, without compromising
quality.
-
utilizes indigenous materials to produce
high standard permanent structures that are earthquake, cyclone and tsunami resistant.
-
is unique in that it forms all the walls in a building
simultaneously. At the same time, it brings to field
construction all the benefits of a factory assembly line - quality
work, by unskilled workers at a maximum rate of production.
-
is
versatile and allows for easy adaptation to varied design specifications,
whether they are schools, homes, clinics or factories whist
maintaining
design aesthetics for social acceptability.
-
promotes
a high standard in the construction industry.
-
is successful in alleviating many of the logistical problems facing
the construction of affordable repetitive housing projects.
-
creates a high production output capacity
-
facilitates
the
possibility for many in situ structures to be built in just one
day.
-
is amortized over many re-uses, reducing the cost of construction and
transportation significantly.
-
far outweighs poorly designed and costly concrete-block and masonry
structures, as they often fail to timeously meet the requirements of
mass housing schemes.
-
does not rely on traditional skilled labour and can employ
the
local indigenous unskilled community.
-
train local contractors and
entrepreneurs to use our technology and, in turn, empowering
communities to build quality structures. Jobs are created
within the community and members become participants in the
construction of their homes.
