somehow: Wanted to ignore this because it was posted 4 days ago.. but I saw a comment that told said you should go for Metral instead of Normal. Normal corrugation is alot better than metral please. The corrugation Valley is deeper than metral. When you go to Tower or First Aluminium, try to ask this question too. 0.55 Tower will work for a storey building. Higher than that, use 0.70mm. |

temi4fash: It's majorly about the properties of both rods. Not about melting and stuff.. Those properties are majorly about the "heat treatment" of iron. Cool it too fast in the furnace, it becomes brittle with low yield stress.. Controlled cooling gives it better qualities. You know young modulus graph right..? 1 Like |

Good evening all. It's been a while here. Normally, I would have read to the last page I last visited before making a post but I guess today is an exemption. I've missed too many pages for me to back there. Anyways, I am still here for your Quantity Surveying needs. Quantity Surveyors are your indispensable professional cost, procurement, contract and project managers. Engage one today and you will be glad you did. Synopsis of Quantity Surveyor roles; 1) Prepare estimated cost of construction from drawings or physical measurements. This is otherwise call Bill of Quantities. 2) Prepare resource scheduling. This means breakdown of quantity of materials and labour needed for work. This is a very useful document in ordering materials from market and negotiating labour cost. 3) Prepare valuation of ongoing construction works. This is a a very important area that clients should take advantage of. Contractors should be paid based on the value of work done on site. Valuation establishes this. 4) Administration of construction contract. I've said it before that construction is a contract either written or otherwise. In contract administration, issues like variation, retention money, defect liability period, fluctuations, honouring certificate of payment, practical completion etc are taken care of. Clients are enjoined to take advantage of this very important area in having a hitch free project delivery. In the Nigerian building construction industry, there are conditions of contract clauses that could be inserted in Bill of Quantities before projects are awarded to contractors. 5) Remeasurement of work on site. So many more interesting duties Quantity Surveyors can do for you. Hire a QS today. Have a pleasant night rest. 8 Likes |

brabus: In 2016, I shared this. It’s just shocking that those who are supposed to lead the change we yearn are the ones championing brick and mortar constructions up and down. There are several other solutions out there to explore. In one of my ongoing construction, I’m not using traditional roof.

Would you imagine this wasn’t a concrete column? Carpenter didn’t work. Iron bender no bend. Casters didn’t cast nothing. No plank was bought. No binding wires. No cement. No granite stones. No sand. No plastering. No pillar design. Just light gauge steel framing, fibre cement backerboard and tiles. 2 Likes

That's the more reason why a professional cost manager should be engaged so as to help reduce the already high construction cost. mountmoriah: 2 Likes |
