@ Ogbefi, the bricklayer is very trusted and am always around as my office is very near to the site (less than 2 mins drive). I am just coming out of the site now and saw your post.The building is taking shape and getting more lovely. |

@ Spyder880, What are the pros and cons of not using a German floor for a bungalow building? Is it safe to build the foundation with 14 pillars holding the building together and when the building gets to roofing level, the German floor will be done. The reason for this is so that the sand on the foundation can better compress over time before the roofing stage. By this time, the sand would have compressed some more, then more sand filling done before the German floor is finally done. What's your take and expert advise on this? |

@ eros, sorry as am tied up with work since last week, but I believe this point about German floor in bungalows was treated more than twice on two occasions in this thead, please look back some pages and find the way we treated it, see ya later. @ALL look at these 2 steps and see the difference

^^^ my brother, I dont joke with bush meat at all, and pammy dont go down well with foreign products, it is best taken with local goodies like the bush meat. I am still tabulating the figures and am thinking I have since crossed the N2.9m mark, I only fear that I dont cross into N3m |

Oga Spyder, the beauty of your house is being revealed with every new block. Neatness of your upper floor is obvious, no wonder you chose to overhaul your team. You surely have some of the best hands. More oil of grace and cash to sustain this project till completion and even beyond. Amen. |

^^^^ Thank you Jussi and Fhemmmy, I have now chosen some members of my team and am getting to know their special capabilities as we move along. Some are good in places where you least expect, others turned out to be disappointments. |
| Re: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by Fhemmmy: 4:20pm On Nov 05, 2011 |
spyder880: That is always the case in choosing your team, that will even help u to trust each other more, and know those that are reliable and those that are doing the work only for money . . . .and this will give you the opportunity to know how to mobilize them on projects. But i really wish that all these project that we have been using to learn will keep going, cos the Property section is going back to the dogs little by little, the way it was before you and brabus took it over, i hope and pray that things will go back to when you and brabus was so much teaching us and we were having so much fun. For record purpose, you have been my reason for constant coming back to the property section . . . .kudos to you |

We are still doing this site, my workers are casting the topmost concrete levels before roofing (very tricky work) I have also finalized arrangements for the casting of the 3 outer pillars to commence first thing tomorrow morning. I chose 2 square pillars and one pentagon shape for the front. The pillar works will be showcased here, live! |
| Re: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by Fhemmmy: 8:58pm On Nov 07, 2011 |
spyder880: Learn better with pix . . . cos english no be my first language . . .  |
| Re: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by spyder880(m): 9:44pm On Nov 07, 2011 |
^^^^ all the pictures of how they make those designed pillars will be shown here. I am involved in making the cast design of my pillar designer. The guy drew all the designs he could remember on paper and I chose one simple design. This will take like 10 bags of cement for the 3 pillars measuring 9" square x 24 feet long. I am choosing to make this pillar simple, small in diameter because I can decide to change my mind in future. If by the next 5 years that I choose to hate the design and want to change it, I will simply ask the to make another pillar 'coat' and wear on this one, casting it with concrete and the whole thing will become new again. |

^^^ You are just too good . . . .keep doing your thing, Brother |
