I am in the planning phase of constructing a house in the Dominican Republic, for retirement and vacation purposes.
Here in Norway where I live there are available prefabricated concrete-like slabs, 60 cms wide and with a variety of lengths, ranging between 2,5 and 8 meters, that are used to make roofs - and floors for more than one-level houses with walls made of block - or LECA as they are called over here, that is Light Expanded Clay Aggregate.
Does anybody know if similar items are available in the DR? I imagine they would be a lot cheaper than using the normal process of constructing the ceiling and/or roof in one piece on the spot, like my wife and I did constructing our first Dominican one-level house.
If not, maybe I could start a business making them?
Regards,
