House Constuction [Merged]

Thanks Sir Travs, I was scanning the net and saw some composite walls made with mortar and EPS, it has T&G for easy joining and does not require plastering anymore, seems a lot easier, can this be supported by the slab alone? I think I read 65kg/sqm.

BTW, the floor is 12mm thick at 3k psi.

Check wall load assumptions w/ your designer, sir. Slab thickness & design mix alone are not enough data.
Also, plan out how you're gonna approach electrical & plumbing prep. Those T&G joints are best left shown. Filled, they will likely crack after a while.
Pair rigid w/ pliant materials, if you plan to have seamless walls remain so, longterm. Therefore, cement boards like Hardiflex go better w/ wood, & Gypsum w/ metal.
