As a registered architect in California I have designed and completed projects using RASTRA as the primary construction material. The product has excellent properties but also some drawbacks that should be made clear to any potential user. The RASTRA product is produced in limited quantities and shipping to the construction site is costly. The need for a large area for storage can also be a problem. Sealing the joints between the modular sections is very important because of the potential of water penetration. The need for experienced laborers and sub-contractors is important for the proper completion of the project. Fire rating and structural properties of the product are excellent and especially important in areas where high seismic or wind is an issue.

I think this is a good start for an introduction to rastra, it's sounds really neat. But it seems like you've only scratched to surface. Are there any examples of how it's used? QueenMonarch 07:16, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
