Participating Innovative Systems


SA Steel HomesLight Steel Frame


SA Steel Homes System Description

Wall panels, consisting of a high quality load bearing steel framework comprising of base rails, lipped channel, studs and noggings, bracing and top rails to which ceiling panels and roofstructures are fixedCeilings are formed either by fixing 12 mm gypsum plasterboard to the underside of the galvanized steel roof panels.


FinnBuilder Show House


FinnBUILDER System Description

• FinnBUILDER is an easy way to build very strong structures at low cost. It is a slip form of concrete shuttering, using non-slump 20MPa concrete.

• The formwork is filled with concrete, compacted and moved forward to extrude a continuous concrete wall.


Fezekile Holdings

• Walls are constructed using polycon cement blocks. It consists of aggregates comprising coarse sand, cement and expanded polystyrene beads. The expanded polystyrene material is a closedcell material is a closed cell material and cannot absorb water.


Profica / Vela


Profica / Vela System Description

• The lightweight steel frame comprises of a galvanized steel stud, channel and truss system which makes up the structural componentof the building. The steel frame is then clad externally with a brick façade or an alternative specified finish.


4Site Powerwall


4Site Powerwall System Description

• Brick is stackable, lightweight, fire resistant with a higher MPA than a normal stock brick and similar in appearance to face brick but can be plastered. The mortar laying process is eliminated with a bonding solution.

• Electrical wiring, piping and plumbing are hidden in the frame.


A&D Holdings (People’s Building System)


A & D Holdings – System Description

• Specially designed Locking Blocks are used jointed with the stitches of Fibre Reinforced Polymer having a tensible strenght of 3,8 MPa.

• The jointing between two consecutive blocks, in the same course is made with one stitch of adhesive.


Styrox


Styrox System Description

• Unique StyroPlast plaster system takes on colour of plaster sandused, applied by brush or spray, water resistant system with imprevious polystyrene blocks and plaster.


Ubomi


Ubomi System Description

• Light steel frame, with fill of polystyrene. • A layer of mortar plaster is applied to the interior and exterior of the

expanded polystyrene by wrapping a metal mesh around the wall assembly. This allows for any finish to be applied, for the desired architectural effect on either the interior or exterior walls.
