zamirikpo: I will not talk about the property side. I will talk about the legal implications. You may have a defective structure; you have also made the fact that you are aware public knowledge. If anything happens to anyone on that site and you can be linked to this profile, then it is no longer pure negligence (unintentional torts), it is a case of premeditated harm aka intentional torts. You can be sued for millions. Please invite a fit and proper structural engineer to assess the situation and determine next steps. You also stand a very serious chance of losing the property to government as a result of the property going down and harming people. Carefully ponder your next steps Sir. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5d1651xrCM&ab_channel=LawShelf If you are the Bible reading type, please check Deuteronomy 22: 8, it has a bearing on this issue 2 Likes

Lot of structural issues here now. The user with vibration problem If you are the owner of the build the truth is you will never feel comfortable with the vibration and you tend to feel it more than others as this is normal we as an individual react to vibration in different manners but there's permissible allowance for each structure, Since the vibration on your build is not from external source like building close to the bridge , highway or railway's then maybe some questioning will go into the structural members serviceability limit state sizing, construction pictures, over reinforced or lighty reinforced, you made mention of seeing defect already, well i proposed in absence of not having a reall pictures of what you said retrofit using steel rather than cracking your deck and beam open.. Tell your engineer to re run the the analysis to determine the stress point maybe after NDT and some carbonation and vibration check equipment should be installed ,then he compared bth frequency with allowable etc.. 1 Like |

For user with crack and stressed deck If you dont own the build pack out as solution to defective structure is quite expensive and i know the landlord will plaster it off and let to the nxt individual. But if you r the owner get an engineer to determine the problem, building are like patient to engineers as well let him move around and ask more questions to observe if maybe other thing r wrong, 1 Like |

zamirikpo:Poor concrete mixture might be a problem, another likely cause can be the reinforcement, that is the rods, maybe they're are not properly connected or hinged together. You have done the right by an Engineer, but i hope you called the right engineer, engineer by profession and certification not by title. |

zamirikpo: All these "Engineers" sef.. Does your building have a well calculated structural drawing? Or the Engineer just handled it how he liked? Truth is, "cost" of repair is usually more than doing the right thing from the outset. AND when I say "cost", I don't mean financial cost alone. Was the Engineer on site during the casting? Seemed like you got the casters yourself too. 1 Like |

redgem: He is correct, you have to introduce new columns calculatively ( each of the columns should have column base with steel reinforcement) for the purpose of transferring the load to the ground, it cannot just be on the wall, it's columns that suspends it. 1 Like 1 Share |

It's unsual for ceiling fan to cause cracks on a reinforced slab. You need to carryout a comprehensive check on the slab especially since you intend to put an additional load on it. Get a structural engineer to examine and conduct integrity test on the slab. This will ascertain the strength of the concrete.. BigFrog: |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aforxzy(f): 11:29am On Jan 27, 2022 |
Chiselling the slab and introducing a beam on the wall might not solve this problem. Get a second opinion by inviting an external structural engineer to look at the building. zamirikpo: |

Good Day To all the Professionals in the built industry contributing to the thread. I've been following this thread for a while now, although I have no construction projects which I own or handle. I'm a professional in embryo, having just finished NYSC, I studied Building. BSc. In the built industry, most companies or individuals are usually looking for professionals with cognate experience. I understand experience matters a lot. "If you no sabi; you no sabi niyen, no 2 ways about it". Also, hiring an individual with no experience to handle a project could cause a great damage in the long run. That being said, I'm currently seeking a position as a graduate Trainee or intern in a construction company. if anybody is looking to hire an intern or trainee who would assist him/her in running day to day activities on and off site, I'm your Guy! I'm a fast learner and I love getting my hands and clothes dirty. Contributing to the success of project is something that I love to do! I looking forward to celebrating the success of a project with the firm I'll be working with, the feeling of having to see a completed project which I was part of, looking back and recollecting past events, challenges that was faced and solved in ensuring the project is success! I'm based in Lagos. However, am I willing to relocate? the answer is YES! cc Spyder880 et all 4 Likes
