What will REDUCE CRIME, POVERTY and UNEMPLOYMENT More Positively than JOB CREATION, TRANSFERRING SKILLS and HOUSING THE NATION?

CAPETOWN, WESTERN CAPE PROVINCE, SOUTH AFRICA, July 4, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- What will REDUCE CRIME, POVERTY and UNEMPLOYMENT More Positively than JOB CREATION, TRANSFERRING SKILLS and HOUSING THE NATION?

Dave Sassman, President of The DAVE SASSMAN FOUNDATION recently asked why housing experts across the world are looking for innovative ideas to house the nations rapidly and economically. The AFRICON BRICK MANUFACTURING & BUILDING SYSTEM can be made available in almost any geographical area and terrain by manufacturing it ‘by hand’, cost effectively, well before a construction project begins, saving 100% on transportation of 16+Mpa concrete bricks.

DAVE SASSMAN, author of “CREATE JOBS, TRANSFER SKILLS and HOUSE THE NATION”. enjoyed former membership of the South African Regional Housing Board (Cape of Good Hope Region (serving as Housing Advisor to the South African Provincial Government), The Cape Town Chamber of Commerce, The Institute of Housing for Southern Africa, Executive City Councillor (City of Cape Town, South Africa) and Commissioner of Oaths (Under Section 6 of the Justice of the Peace and the Commissioners of Oaths Act 16 of 1963) suggests that sustainable Low Income, Affordable and Up-Market Houses have been constructed rapidly, economically and………in the Republic of South Africa with the AFRICON BRICK Manufacturing & Building System.


Why is everyone looking for ‘new’ building concepts, innovative building ideas and green building concepts? The oldest building in South Africa, The Cape Town Castle, was built more than 335 years ago. The Pyramids of Egypt, also, is an undisputed hallmark of dry-stack, energy efficient construction. The Peruvians, when building the Machu Pitchu in Peru, were also masters of this technique – where blocks of stone were cut to fit together tightly without the use of mortar. These three undisputed examples epitomizes Energy Efficiency, Sustainability in construction, Waste Minimization and Environment Friendliness amongst others.

Plainly speaking, if dry-stack construction was good enough for the South Africans, the Egyptians and the Peruvians - who proved the term ‘sustainability in construction’, then the recent quotation of our CEO, Tanswell Sassman, brings this matter to conclusion, ”Oh, housing backlog, where is thy sting and Oh, Africon Brick, where is thy victory?”


This unique brick manufacturing & building system addresses the UN Millennium Development Goals adequately. Countries, like the Republic of South Africa with daily Power Cuts, 25% unemployment, imminent water shortages, an ever increasing housing backlog and a ‘snail pace’ housing delivery programme has yet to ‘apply its mind’ to this ‘all-inclusive’ solution to their housing dilemma. We have proved, beyond any reasonable doubt, that a 30M2 house can be built in 1 day by 5 unskilled workers. Perhaps we should asking, “Why are governments NOT using this proven system of building sustainable houses?” The answer could easily be, ‘There are none so blind as those who do not wish to see’.


The need for adequate housing is a world-wide phenomenon. This System can be employed in almost any geographical area and terrain where solid waste is available to be crushed and re-used in our brick manufacturing process.


The System adds major significance to the non-delivery of Housing Delivery Programmes world-wide – particularly in countries struck by natural disasters or war and those experiencing stupendous housing backlogs. The Republic of South Africa, Malawi, Mozambique and Kenya amongst others, are typical cases-in-point.


This concept was born as a result of Governments’ cries for “Job Creation, “Skills Transfer”, “Sustainable Housing”, “Energy Efficiency”, Waste Minimization” and “Entrepreneurial Opportunities” for the poorest-of-the-poor”.

Despite family contributions of hundreds of thousands of Rand, Certification by Agrement SA, Tests by The South African Bureau of Standards, Approval by a South African Government and Highly Commended by the US International Association of Housing Science, how can we be of service to you?
