There are faster building methods we can use
2008-10-30
IT is so sad to hear that, despite the great housing need in Paarl, only 12 houses were handed over recently, especially when there are faster construction methods available. Government is at a point where they need to tell homeless folk that alternative building methodologies will be the way forward in order to house the nation faster. My company has a light steel frame building system that rivals traditional building methodologies - hundreds of houses in the Delft area and around South Africa are already starting to adopt light steel frame roofing into their projects, halving project time and ensuring quality throughout. If we don’t change our thinking we will never catch up on the housing backlog. This system allows structures to be erected faster than any conventional building system, and will rival any conventional building system with quality, strength and longevity of our product. It is suitable for backyard dwellers, informal settlements, affordable housing and gap housing, right through to executive homes. View www.amcld.co.za for more information. Trevor Abrahams
