I did not read where he said he will shoot someone not to talk of his ex-Builder, he asked for where he can buy a gun, what he wants to use it for is another story, maybe to hunt bush meat grin ? Who knows.

Okay let's get started.

QC1 - what is the current status? I believe it rained in Lagos recently.

AbdulWastecx - you were going to travel to Lagos I thought, could you make a detour and make a site visit to appraise the situation?

Good-Man You!
(I even added Color!) shocked shocked

I will post my own "comprehensive suggestions" very soon.
Let others also chip-in.
Civil Engineers in the house can then see which one can work, which one wont, which one will cost less, e.t.c.

All hands need to be on deck.

This was exactly my point here.

Folks have jumped to conclusion that OP wants to use it to shoot someone when all he did was ask for a firearm. He may need it to protect his family and that's not a bad thing. Or is it?

Abdulwastec
The call to duty has been sounded, what help can you offer Sir QC ? I know you are far away, but i am sure during your visit to lagos, you can make a pit stop. Please ......

Adventures/Spyder/Segemoore, let us put away the sentiment of "who send you go brabus" and let us see how you can help a brother. I dont think he would expect you to use your money to fix it, but a plan of action is what is needed now.
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by mavverick: 8:26pm On Jun 24, 2016
I dont think its a bad thing, and in fact if QC1 is based in USA, according to the 2nd amendment, he has a right to carry arms.

I am sure Haji get guns of various sizes, have you noticed how haji never complains about any builder, i think they may know what is coming if they mess up with haji. Haji, I am only joking oo. Happy Friday

I was extremely lucky, I had done a lot of reading up and learnt a lot from NL.
Before Bosun starts to claim credit for the use and implementation of hardcore, see the discussion that led to it. It was my idea, even from thousands of miles away, I was telling my engineer how to do his job, engineer and engineer mistress as well !


And I insisted I pay for it...



Hardcore is not ALWAYS COMPULSORY as he said. That is CORRECT

I am sure Abdulwastecx and other Engineers/Builders in the house will CONFIRM to us that it is not a "structural integrity" additive to a Building.
HardCore is used to REDUCE the quantity of Cement Concrete used in a German Floor.

"If" you want it and it is not part of the agreement...YOU pay for it naah.



Let us stop "digging-up issues" just to elongate this conversation.

I think my message was directed at brabus, and noone else ! and no need to rehash whats already been stated to elongate the conversation.

Did i say it was compulsory (Standard)?
Did I not say i would pay for it

I think it was clear that the german floor was going to be raised a bit to compensate for the hardcore application.

I want it, I paid for it, I didnt complain, I directed post at brabus, it gets implemented so what is there to ask engineer again !!
Na wa oo

I was extremely lucky, I had done a lot of reading up and learnt a lot from NL. This is what happened during my german floor, me and Bosun had rows and rows, and a friend of mine (name whitheld) had to reconcile us. He didnt deliver the number of trips of sand that i paid for, in the end I had to start ordering it myself, and paying labourers myself. Whats the F******* point of an Engineer then or a QUACK !



I do not see any 12mm rods on QC foundation, QC please confirm as this is very important.

Before Bosun starts to claim credit for the use and implementation of hardcore, see the discussion that led to it. It was my idea, even from thousands of miles away, I was telling my engineer how to do his job, engineer and engineer mistress as well !



And I insisted I pay for it, he wanted to defraud me but he didnt know I have eyes at the back of my head, paid 300k for 2 trucks, he dropped only one and wanted to use it like that, but i insisted i needed to see the picture of the second drop.

Okay, enough is enough. Lets make progress!
Can we start making suggestions on how to save this building?
We never know where the brilliant idea/inspiration might come from.

Question: What will you do to SAVE this house (at the current state), if it were yours
Opportunity to contribute to this present Discuss!
As a pragmatic, common sense person, I would ask that a ditch like gutter be dug some safe distance around the building so that the ground water there can drain off the foundation and pool into the gutter, much like a well.
I may have the type of cast gutter that has U shape made and fitted invertedly so that the gutter still has fresh earth for easy and continuous pooling if the ground water there and the solid sides would prevent the ground from caving in from both sides and allow it to be walked over on top.
The water is then channeled out and made to slope downward.
To minimize sinking of the building, I will try to float it by spreading the weight over a larger surface area.
I would commission an innovative and ambitious engineer to bore holes at strategic points on the foundation wall, fix the iron reinforcement with the ones on the foundation walls and extend it to throughout the compound, and over the gutter too.
Then I would have concrete casted so that the compound is covered including a column connected to the foundation.
In that way, the whole compound is casted in concrete and the reinforced concrete is extended through the foundation walls.
I would want to assume the downward force exerted by the building downward would then be distributed over the whole compound. The whole casted compound has to go down with the building for ant sinking to occur.
I watch national geographic and other informative channels, the whites don't think any thing impossible, even if it's not conventional.
If I was the owner of this house, I don't have much to lose. I would try it.
Same way I've started pop emulsion paint in powder form to be mixed with water to give the regular pop paint in 4kg to by pass using plastic container even though my distributors expectedly tried to discourage me because we are too used to convention.
I hope engineers here can help interprete this professionally and most importantly, I hope it helps.

Hi Boss; you spoke of creating a sump and also creating aprons the way a raft slab can be extended at the bottom (like heel something like a humans feet in spreading body weight). I really don't know the scenario but what u have written can help reduce water from one place into the sump and can also reduce load from an area by spreading outwards. Kudos!!!
