Mason

Masons are necessary at every time and in every place on earth. In Benin, the demand for properly constructed private houses is growing due to the rapid growth in population. And for public buildings or production plants, well-trained masons are also indispensable. In many cases, the modest buildings in Benin are not safe and not stable.

Qualified masons help implementing an infrastructure, which enables people to live and work more comfortable and which supports the country to provide necessary buildings for the fortification of the industry, of public organization and of the healthcare system.

To this, it is essential to cope with all the available construction material, like cement, clay, earth and stones in order to provide attractive and sustainable buildings, which both shelter their occupants and provide perfect conditions for workers.

Among the main tasks of masons are

  • Construction of buildings and other structures
  • Fabrication of construction materials out different substances
  • Laying the foundation of a building
  • Production and application of frameworks
  • Plastering buildings
  • Road construction
