Experts in the house, let us know o o. I am interested as well. The cost of aluminum parapet is ridiculous at 20k per square metre yet the weight of casted parapet is a concern.

Aluminum Parapet is better, because of the weight of this Material. It cannot hold the roof. To make it work involves a lot of technicality that might not be worth it after all. Its only best for locations where weight doesn't apply on it much.

Does the aluminium parapet actually hold the weight of the roof? How? Please explain a little bit. Thanks.

Seconded.. Precast still stands on the winning side with me on the cost... I could not believe it when they told me price for aluminium parapet.

LIGHT WEIGHT?

Then the answer you seek lies in using POLYSTYRENE/STYROFOAM mould for your parapets. Light and also flexible.

That is what it's meant for. Falls under "DRY CONSTRUCTION"

You are not alone in this. I have been checking here about 4-6 times per day to see pictures and satisfy my curiosity in the last one week but oga Skimanski just keeps holding on to his pictures. I am going to keep checking this space. I want to see the customized bathroom shower, kitchen, POP finishing, walk-in closet and wardrobe.
