Following as usual. I can’t believe how much I’ve learnt about building construction on NL. Me that didn’t even know what parapet is now I can boldly explain to others how to start a building from foundation to roofing including materials needed, cost of materials as at now etc...Am still learning, so following as usual. Feels really good to be following threads concerning buildings. I always look forward to updates. 5 Likes |

Takoro13: Yes pegging the foundation. We use pegs to determine the level of the blinding which the foundation will be on, then spread the pegs on all of the foundation and then get a uniform level on which the whole building can sit on. We do this before we start casting the foundation with concrete. 2 Likes |

spyder880: This is what happens when you have an educated , experienced problem solver in charge. Many less innovative people will wait for 1 month to get a tanker that will agree to come supply water to the site and frequently delay the project due to lack of water. 5 Likes |
