RDP Housing Units, Wolwerivier
A new low-cost housing project on Wolweriver Farm which will see the resettlement of approximately 2000 individuals (450 families) from two informal settlements.
We supplied lightweight assembled panels to the contractor as a solution for low-cost housing. These preassembled panels were manufactured in our factory.
LSF PROFILES:
90mm wall and roof panels
MATERIAL USED:
0.5mm Galvanised steel 90mm U-section
0.5mm mini-rib sheeting (cladding material)
Alu-bubble
DELIVERED TO SITE: Preassembled with Alu-bubble and mini-rib cladding for easier & faster on-site construction. Recently one of the units burnt out (image 8), but fortunately all occupants escaped unscaved.
Project Location: Wolwerivier, Cape Town
Date: 2014
