Good morning engineers and builders

My house is at the roofing stage it's a flat roof design...Was told told flat roofs are prone to leakage.

Pls help me with precautions I need to take to prevent the leakage.
Thank you all

This evening my cement man says he is increasing from 4600 to 4800 from 2morrow jst imagine

Some have started seeling it for 5000naira already

Shallow piles ?

Was that the recommendation from the structural engineer?

What stage is your project?

Get a structural engineer to check the cracks for you.

Hello house , what is the minimum number of plots necessary to make an estate?
and is there any procedures necessary in terms of government or community documentation to make an estate?

Anyone who knows should help.

Reeefe:


Anyone who knows should help.

Estate is referred to ur landed property, even farm lands count as estate.

From 3 plots above would be okay
Depending if you want to build a mini estate or a mega project,

You need the regular building approval and an EIA Report,
Traffic Analysis depending on the project size.

I have seen people do lintels that way and it doesn't crack, so it may be
The span of the wall is long, shorten it by introducing pillars where necessary.
Poorly moulded blocks, and your blocks are carrying loads(load bearing blocks suppose be quality)
Poor foundation, which is reacting to ground vibration.

temi4fash:
Please what can cause this kind crack in the building.

Answer
Cracking in building structures can be caused by various factors, including but not limited to these:

1. Settlement: Settlement occurs when the soil beneath a building compresses or shifts, causing the foundation to sink unevenly. This differential movement can result in cracks in walls, floors, and other structural elements.

2. Thermal expansion and contraction: Temperature fluctuations can cause building materials, such as concrete and masonry, to expand and contract. If there is insufficient allowance for this movement or if it occurs rapidly, it can lead to cracking.

3. Moisture-related issues: The presence of moisture can impact the stability of building materials. Excessive moisture, whether from leaks, water seepage, or high humidity, can weaken the structural integrity of materials and contribute to cracking.

4. Overloading or excessive loads: Applying loads beyond the design capacity of a structure can lead to stress concentrations and the formation of cracks. This can occur due to poor construction practices, incorrect usage of the building, or modifications made without proper engineering considerations.

5. Age and deterioration: Over time, buildings and their components may deteriorate due to environmental factors such as exposure to harsh weather conditions, chemical exposure, or lack of maintenance. This deterioration weakens the materials, making them more susceptible to cracking.

6. Shrinkage: Certain construction materials, such as concrete, have a natural tendency to shrink as they cure or dry out. If appropriate measures are not taken to control shrinkage, such as joint placement or use of shrinkage-compensating materials, it can lead to cracking.

7. Structural movement: Buildings are designed to accommodate certain movements, such as wind loads or seismic activity. However, if the structure experiences excessive movement beyond its design limits, it can result in cracks.

8. Poor construction practices: Inadequate construction techniques, including improper reinforcement placement, insufficient curing of concrete, or inadequate compaction of soil, can compromise the structural integrity of a building and contribute to cracking.

It is crucial to identify and address the underlying causes of cracking in buildings to prevent further damage and ensure the safety and longevity of the structure. Consulting a qualified structural engineer or building professional is recommended to accurately diagnose the cause of cracking and recommend appropriate remedial measures.

Also, to avoid problem like cracking do German floor next time and use beam all round the lintel level

It looks as though there was no German flooring at DPC making water to percolate in the building for a long going by non roofing and weed there. These may have resulted to differential settlement of the foundation.

If the lintels were properly chained together, it wouldn't have been this obvious.

Topographic too

I don't want to men strength of material because the building has been exposed to different environmental conditions.

Hmmm.

Thanks a lot for this feedback. Post-job feedbacks are really important.

POD things.

Much appreciated.

Good morning my people, we had been called to renovate this building by removing existing windows to casement windows

Material to used

*Tower materials
*6*4 windows with nets
* Grey materials without burglaries
* 5mm black reflective glass,
Site location Ikeja, alausa

Be following, thanks

erico2k2:

The engineer actually recommended it, but we felt since he was still going to do that at the decking level there was no need at the lintel level.

But he is recommending that we remove all of the lintel and connect the iron beams.

Also saying we pull down the very obvious cracked walls

There was German floor. The German floor was done before proceeding to do this.

We meet the foundation there and just did some bit of correction, German floor and built.
It's been there for over 1 year.. We were just trying to raise money for the decking. For the quality of blocks, we were told it was strong. There are pillars in between long spans too.

This issue is still a bit vague. Your accusation of poor dealings is likely to affect this man's business. At the very least please explain what happened during your dealing with him to guide prospective clients on here. We have seen many posts here from people with legitimate grievances against some vendors/clients and most people now know who to avoid. However, vague accusations do not help anyone and damage can be irreversible. Just my position.

Please engineers in the house, what is the cause of this cracks?

Serious, I can detect poor materials.
Even the mason didn't do good job, the mortal wasn't rubbed well.
