This document discusses an affordable housing technology called Moladi plastic formwork construction system invented by Hennie Botes in 1986. The system aims to address South Africa's large housing backlog, unemployment, and demand for low-cost housing through innovative and efficient construction methods. Moladi uses reusable plastic molds and local materials and labor to construct houses faster and at lower cost compared to traditional brick construction. The system has been used to build houses, schools, and courthouses in South Africa, Tanzania, Botswana, and other countries.
