ABOUT
HOW IT WORKS
The
process
involves
a
number
of
smaller
components
which
are
assembled
into
larger,
lightweight
panels
that
are
configured
into
a
mould
which
forms
a
house
of
any
desired
size
and
design.
The
engineer
specified
steel
reinforcing
bars,
window
and
door
block-outs,
conduits,
service
pipes
and
other
fittings
are
positioned
within
the
150mm
or
100mm
wall
cavity,
which
is
then
filled
with
a
specially
formulated
and
project
specific
lightweight
mortar
consisting
of
the
local
river
sand,
cement,
water,
and
a
harmless
cement
admixture
to
form
all
the
walls
of
the
house
simultaneously.
The
moladi
plastic
formwork
panels
are
then
removed
the
following
morning
and
immediately
re-erected
onto
an
adjoining
site.
The
result
is
a
wall
with
a
smooth
off-shutter
finish
that
does
not
require
any
plastering,
beam
filling
or
chasing
and
generates
no
waste.
The
walls
are
then
painted,
the
roof
erected
and
windows
and
doors
are installed to complete the house.
The
moladi
construction
method
provides
structures
which
are
permanent,
durable,
waterproof,
and
possess
excellent
thermal
and
sound
insulation
properties.
The
moladi
walls
possess
an
average
compressive
strength
of
15MPa
or
15N/mm²,
which
is
far
stronger
than
the
average
standard
for
cement
blocks
which
vary
from
3.6
N/mm²
and
7N/mm²
or
common
clay
building
bricks,
which
have
a
compressive strength of 5.2N/mm².
moladi
’s
principle
methodology
is
aimed
at
eliminating
all
of
the
typical
problems
one
encounters
with
construction
projects,
such
as
time
constraints,
shortage
of
skilled
labour
and
materials
as
well
as
waste.
It
is
the
simplicity,
performance,
functionality
and
practicality
of
the
moladi
technology
which
contributes
to
the
affordability
of
moladi
homes
which
are
roughly
30%
less
than
similar
structures
built using the traditional brick and mortar method.
Each set of moladi
formwork panels can be re-used
50 times making the technology
cost effective due to its repetitive
application scheme, reducing the
cost of construction and
transportation significantly.
