May i know the size of your building? If it is a duplex the quantity of copper tape is much and 20mmx3mm should be okay for a residential building. The cost of earth rod is much. Arrestor is also costly.

For more information on the earthing and bonding, You can visit our thread.

the size of the House is 70/25

If you’ll be coming to uae for job hunting, Pls try to run some basic laboratory tests before you start investing into that journey(hiv, HBV, cxr). And if you’ve been treated for tuberculosis in the past, you might just need to think twice before coming to search for job.
And generally guys, We all know that most of those ladies doing runs are either on visit or don’t even have any valid visa. Some of them are reservoir of diseases oo so guys let’s be careful.
The event that called for this advice was a very sad one.

Please let's try an avoid abuse of titles. It demeans professionalism.
I'm sure this quotation wasn't prepared by an 'Engineer'. That that he builds for you doesn't justify him earning the title Engineer, you addressing him as such, he is impersonating.
��. That’s what he calls himself, what do you suggest concerning the quotation sir?

Honestly if you ask me. I think you should just talk to your engineer that you have a family friend that want to do parapet for you. Then go ahead and engage someone preferably from this platform to do parapet for you. If not, your engineer will frustrate your work if you cut it this low. Obviously he is set out to make money from you. If you reduc his money which will be like 80%,
I am trying to work with him base on who brought him, I don’t want to disappoint the person because he is highly respected. That’s why I am trying my best to avoid fight and if I can A more accurate quotation from here to work with for him, I will really appreciate. He is only exploring my novice in the area of construction

RedMapleConsult:


Truly construction of "Parapets" are quite expensive, but the quantity and price of materials are a bit inflated, labour as well though it's dependent on the site conditions.
But I think you can do purchase of materials yourself and pay them to do the job. Tell him to cut the quantity to moderate or you buy 75% of what he wrote.

For example; from 72/24 you wrote as the building dimension, the approximate perimeter of your house is 58m, this might vary if there are wall projections and depressions.

The 1*12*12, if you have 3 boards per section of profile that will make it 54 boards, at worst 4 boards per section of profile that's 70 boards
Then boards a re sold at 1,200, you will get 1,000 or even 900 depending on your location.
70* 1200 is 84,000. @1k is 70,000
54* 1200 is 64,800. @ 1k is 54,000
Then add sawing and transportation.

Cement 50bags should cast it, but even at 65bags
Cement is about 2,400/2500*65is 156,000/162,000
Then you add transport
Just cross check.



I really appreciate this a lot sir, and for the iron, do you think that quotation is accurate enough? Because I am thinking of halfing everything he quoted. Thank you sir

Sir I need your help on this small issue of mine. I’m actually packaging a small 4 duplex for the family and we have gotten to the parapet level, however the engineer is about killing me with the quotation of the parapet. The land is 30/120 in size and the building is 72/24 in feet. Below is the quotation he gave me, pls help me vet the quotation because funds are tight and if possible a help on the necessary materials he will use to save cost. Thank you sir

Rubbiish:

I guess your 72 by 24 measurement is in feet?
If yes, i fear the quote is on d high side
Why not do precast parapet?
This thing shouldn't cost u above 300 to 400k for precast for DAT size of building. Just ensure it is done by an expert instead of wasting money on woods
I really appreciate your response sir, yes my thoughts is that it shouldn’t be more than 350k since we have recently bought 40 pieces of 1x12 for the lintel and we still have some sharp sand which was bought for the lintel as well. Is there anyway you can help me with breakdown please? This guy is a crook. That’s how he quoted 2.4m for decking and we ended up spending 1.820 for everything.

Pls house when is a good time to retrieve car from a driver on hire purchase who has failed to follow agreement right from the day he collected the car. He agreed to make weekly payments on Wednesday but he doesn’t until Friday and that even after calling his line severally, we arrange for car inspection and he doesn’t pick calls claiming he slept off. He has erred in every aspect and this driver just clocked one month and he is already feeling like a boss for the car owner. Pls I need advice fam. Thanks
