The foundation is a pad footing and very coolwith soil with a good bearing capacity.. The beam is a plinth beam it helps to reduce the effective length of the column.. In lay terms..

That beam helps to chain those column together and support loads coming from the top it helps prevent the floor from cracking and helps the foundation against collapse from back fill.

My brother, the north is far o. A round trip to supervise one site in the north will take me a minimum of 3 days, I can supervise sites 12 times here in 3 days. It might not make economic sense for me to work in the north now, owing to the number of jobs I have around here.

Those are imported doors that could be assembled, it has thick frames, good quality finish and architraves. Each room door costs around N70,000, toilet doors will be about N45,000.

Also, are the tiles Nigerian or foreign?

Oga Spyder.

Well done on your projects! The only thing i see lacking in most of these homes is electricity. The issue of water supply in Naija homes have been solved via boreholes now a routine feature, so should power supply be solved via solar panels as a routine feature.

You Engineers and builders should work with solar panel agents and companies to work towards installing more homes with solar panels. It will always be better to do so during roofing. Nigeria with ample amount of sunshine and almost non-existent public power supply is a goldmine for solar companies if they are determined to resist the urge to install fake products and genuinely help customers to totally meet their electricity needs through properly installed solar panels.

Once some houses with 100% solar powered electricity begin to pop up here and there, more people will have the confidence to invest in solar panels through the witnesses of those who invested and benefited from uninterrupted power supply.

The things we see in Nigeria.

You want to market your solar services and the first video is what you use? grin grin grin Couldn't even understand the words you mumbled.

Tomorrow you will blame village people for your failure in business. This is utterly ridiculous.

learned some cheap and standard alternatives from u


Do you also know that beam cud be adding loads to the already designed loads which might not be computed for.

Oga Spyder, no internal roof beams.
Never under estimate the weight of roof carcasses.

Over time, those blocks will break/crack

There were internal roof beams, I will find the pictures later. I chain all my lintels anyway.
