Benefits of using Plaswall Plaswall ™ is a unique fibrocement lost in place or permant concrete formwork • It replaces costly steel aluminum and plywood formworks • It produces a complete Load Bearing wall with a complete rendered finish • Increases site production by as much as 300% • Requires significantly lower skilled labor to build high quality concrete homes and buildings • Is not a precast system • Is not different engineering wise to regular RC walls and structures and meets ALL world building codes • Is Not a system but a building technique for RC construction ( one of the most common types of construction in the world today ) • Is not limiting in anyway architecturally • Is not a higher cost that conventional systems in fact is cheaper than even the lowest cost alternatives inmost cases and locations • Is not expensive to setup factory and facility's globally • It is not difficult for regular builders to adopt and be trained in its use. Different Types of Formworks Plywood formworks are expensive, time consuming requiring highly skilled carpenters and large amounts of materials to produce structure ,even after removal of forms there is full repair and rendering works to do, many of materials not reusable . Steel formworks very large capital outlay ,heavy to install , requires cranes , large amounts of scaffold and manpower to install , difficult to install rebars , even when removed ( by crane ) still rendering and finishing of concrete remains ,limiting in architectural design flexibility Plaswall ™ prefabricated fibrocement formwork ,light simple and easy to install ( manually ) wall braces only needed for for concreting , after concreting walls ready to accept ting and final paint , spacers hold rebars in correct position requiring no rebar tie wires , electrical and plumbing completed prior to pour concrete Plasmolite Plasmolite™, the next in the category, is made from mixing stable foam to slurry of cement, sand and water. This action incorporates small enclosed air bubbles within the mortar thereby making it lighter and possessing special properties such as low thermal conductivity and high fire resistance. Its density ranges from as low as 500kg/m3 to as high as 1600kg/m3 therefore allowing it to be used in a variety of applications such as high rise, commercial and industrial. Its erection takes just one-third time when compared to conventional systems which, eventually, results in quicker installation and lesser dependency on skilled labor.
Plasmolite™ also saves you from the hassles of brickwork, hollow-block and plastering. It can be very well integrated with conventional columns and beams. Usage of this product leads to substantial weight reduction (dead-load), improved fire rating and maximum sound absorption. It also offers huge saving in raw material (no gravel) and in steel reinforcement in high rise. One has to see to believe the uniformly finished and thermally insulated walls with more strength and durability. These walls act as non-load bearing and will find wide acceptance for various buildings projects. ----------------------------------------------------------------------end----------------------------------------------------------------------
