Concrete is universally used as a pretty standard construction material.

But one thing that amazes me about how people build stuff in the Third World is how construction workers apply their own take on Concreting Techniques.  That’s because there’s no money to create or enforce any safety standards, so they come up with often inventive and mind blowing ways to construct new buildings.

So todays post is about Conrete: 5 Ways It’s Done In The Third World

Case Study Two: Cementing In Africa Part 2

Case Study Three: Throwing the Cement – WITH the shovel!

Case Study Four: Brick Transport in Bangladesh
