Ground Floor - (built on conventional foundation)
The peripheral load bearing precast walls are brought to site and hosited into position with a crane and thus fixed on conventional concrete foundation slab.
First story decks
Once all the vertical walls have been erected a pre-assembled composite flooring deck is lowered into place.
First story walls- (fitted on top off ground floor pannels)
The erection process proceeds with installation of the first story walls panels
Roofing Compisite Slabs
The raw structure contruction job is concluded with the laying of the pre-assembled roof system
Simplicity – Speed – Quality
- All wall floor and roof panels are precasted and pre-assembled off-site
- No wet joining on-site , only special screws are used for fixing
- The system fully operable and interfacable with conventional building materials and construction techniques
EnviroCrete ® DRY JOINTED BUILDING SYSTEM make life much easier for builders

Ventilated-Composite Roofing System
EnviroCrete® 14 cm shuttered slab
excellent thermal & acustic insualtion at very affordable cost
Achievements:
- Developed for the first time in South Africa according to local requirements and at very low cost impact
- Thermal Inversion of 14 hours assures that the heat NEVER transfers inside the house
- No need for extra cooling fan or HVAC-> Living in full comfort
- Great acoustic insulation + 50% improvement.-> No hearing hail battering or external noises
A Thermal Invertion (displacement) of 14 hours means that it takes that time for heat from outside to penetrate inside
