That means is Bricklayer that will do it but can bricklayer use block with pure cement for it?

I have turned a plot of land into a materials management yard. I'm stockpiling gravel, granite and sharp sand. With the new increase in price of fuel these guys will charge more.

Still impressive! The only real estate is real estate. You are doing well sir.

I have pinged @Maverick and @brag3 to come back to our hangout spot but Just like the saying "10 boys can not play together for 10yrs". Ladies and gentlemen, I come in peace.

Building is presently facing challenges, Rent & Taxes to Building is not in correlation anymore.

60m or more get you 4units 3bedroom duplex with BQ in terrace form on a plot of land rent is 1.5m to 2m each per annum.

Recouping will take 10yrs. But selling each is range of 30m each. Developer these days maximise profits using substandard materials that call for repairs and maintenance in short time.

Our government is really fustrating every sector, CBN is the instrument used. Devaluation of currency at will, i think the best way to be save is selling value in dolllars is best option for business to grow...

Construction is such a broad topic, so what you have said should be be limited to building construction.

I am sure an Architect has no leadership place in a bridge construction, power substation, road construction etc

Who is team lead in a bridge construction, a civil Engineer. Who is team lead in a power substation construction, an Electrical Engineer. Who is team lead in a petroleum refinery construction, a petroleum Engr.

Yes, construction project management is relatively new but the practice has been there. People who are qualified for this position are usually people who have proven experience in project management. Another relatively new discipline is cost engineering.

EgunMogaji2:


It is absolutely a profession.

KolaShangOne:


Like you said, a MANAGER can be in charge and oversee a construction project.

In the case being discussed, his father is already the MANAGER of the site. The position left is the Technical Head of the site which the QS is trying to usurp.

Professionally, (correct me if I'm wrong), I don't think a QS has business with quality of materials, just quantity. Also, compliance with design is the work of the Architect. Integrity of structures is the work of the structural Engineer.

But then, the Engineer has been trained to know at least a little out of ALL the other professions and that's why I think he's more ideally suited to lead a site.

For example, When I was doing my Masters in Engineering Management, the curriculum delved into so many aspects. Construction project management; Project planning and control, Optimization techniques, Logisitics and supply, Strength of materials, combinations, Calculation of Man-hrs, etc

Plastering the house.

Follow the list below, note that some of the jobs can go on concurrently with the previous or next jobs.

In Nigeria, yes the contractor must not be a professional engineer or Registered Engineer (RE in our case), but his construction must be supervised by an RE who signs an undertaking for the construction. You may never see the RE on site but he is responsible especially for QC/QA.

The government inspectors like you are hold the RE responsible for the QC/QA issues.

Secondly, every company registered with the government for construction activities must have an Engineer in the board of directors. So an Architect cannot register his own company as a construction company without having an Engr as one of the directors. I have given my credentials to some architects for this purpose.

actually - FIXING WINDOWS AND PLASTERING SHOULD GO TOGETHER

OR

FIXING OF WINDOW SUBFRAME (as in sliding window) and PLASTERING SHOULD GO TOGETHER

Goodluck

KolaShangOne:


No matter how much we stockpile, it can't a absorb the shock in the long term. I find it very difficult to present variations on private jobs to clients because getting the money isn't easy.

boay:


The bolded is no longer a requirement. I just registered my own construction company Luminoux International Ltd, RC 1694769.

emmyN:


Sure you can. What part of Delta State do you intend to make the purchase?

I agree with the bolded. Cost Engineering is what some countries call Quantity Surveying

Hahahaha...I see @BrabusNG is back on this thread...well, we have all moved on from the 2015 saga.

The question is ...Will I ever give him another project? No! And I can speak boldly for brag and Maverick as well.

But like I said, I'm here to learn and to look at fancy pictures.

I have noticed that interlocking flooring has become so popular in Nigeria and was wondering how come it is so affordable . . Can someone tell me the estimate cost per square foot or per square mater?
