Not totally impossible but too difficult, all the ones we removed from previous works were almost all damaged by the time the were pulled out. Besides if the aim is to reuse them, it will be almost impossible as workers will find it difficult hoisting them on the next project, plus there might be differences in the house structural arrangements.

Simple answer is yes its been done but there is no guarantee that you would be able to use it as it can get broken.

gud but be careful d materials are real gud for your projects to b solid

good job.. ride on sir.. @spyder

benimeogu: Can one install PVC Ceiling before electrical wiring, Please, your input is much appreciated.

I asked the same question in the past and I was told Yes. My Electrician and Carpenter also confirmed it.
Actually that is what I am doing right now.. the PVC ceiling is being installed from yesterday, and the wiring will be installed later.. but remember the PVC for wiring has already been installed, just only wiring is needed.

Thanks and remain blessed

Lets talk about parapets later this evening, I am looking at some pictures and methods of precast, in situ, etc.

spyder880: Lets talk about parapets later this evening, I am looking at some pictures and methods of precast, in situ, etc.

Waiting patiently on this.. I have seen some of your parapets and the constructions, it will be nice to also see the installations of pre-cast.. I have seen some of the precasts as explained by Segcy.Moor and Aventures in one of their threads.

Hajji Mufutau

10 questions.......

1. is the parapet worth the hype?
2. Is pre cast better than the full cast?
3. Is the costs worth the aestethic value it can place on the building?
4. Can I add this to my private home or to a block of flats for rents?
5. What are the positives?
6. Shebi everything that has an advantage also has a disadvantage?
7. Can it prevent burglaries?
8. Can it prevent rodents and bats from hiding in my ceiling?
9. Does it limit indoor ventilation?
10. Can I do this parapet if my roof has been roofed before?

I wish I had seen this anuohia earlier. I would have provided the needed palm-wine to go with it.

What a thread. What a section. I have been following. In just five days i have learnt what i could not in my five years of studying engineering in the university. I never knew nairaland had a construction school in property section. My wife is already complaining of my sudden addiction to my tablet pc, which has been gulping megabytes, while trying to view pictures from spyder, brabus, muyesky...In five days i have been inspired to design my own house plan, using AutoCad(which i abandoned for 8 years after learning). I am making plans to commence my house with more confidence now. I may open a thread of progress as well. I am almost in tears for the hours i wasted in other nairaland sections, gisting about air-headed celebrities and getting into time wasting banters on Tonto Dike and co.

May the good Lord bless spyder, brabus, muyesky, not to forget regular co classmates...hajj mufutau, fhemmmmy and co. I dey watch una for 3D...
