SurveyorGeo: My own case is quite funny... Bought a land for 4m in 2020 in Ogun state(half plot). Now this is the twist. The land is a 2 plot of land (120 by 60 *2), fence round but this seller decided to sell one plot (120 by 50), then sold half for me for 120 by 25, what they have remaining was 120 by 45.... At first, I got a buyer for the last one but the person did not buy because he insisted that it's not a full plot (120by45)... One Alhaji later got it, when Alhaji started foundation, enter my own space and they call my attention, luckily na the same person sell the land for all of us...na so argument start o, Alhaji insisted that his land is 120by60, and that he's a surveyor and nobody can cheat him, luckily for me, the seller insisted that what he sold for Alhaji is 120by45.... Na the wahala we dey drag, I have a receipt but Alhaji no get, He just transferred money to them... When Alhaji got info that I paid 4m, he was mad because they collected 11M from him...He felt cheated so he say he won't buldge...Oga come and shift ur foundation now, na d wahala we dey o.. On a low key, I dey fear Alhaji because he looks like one old Abija, one of this herbalist for Yoruba movie, make d man no come nak me jazz...so I just dey try calm am down, dey respect am..moreso, Alhaji is a surveyor, with years of experience but he was jus unlucky because he was not around when he made payment..Alhaji is older than my father...We have been on it for like 4 month now...I just weak 1 Like |

hello house can anyone give me a working formula to calculate the sand. granite n cement needed for a concrete floor casting? and is a mix of 1:8:9 (1 cement bag, 8 pan of sand, 9 pan of granite) good enough for a swampy area after proper filing with sharp has been done? |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aforxzy(f): 9:04pm On Aug 03, 2023 |
No this ratio is not good at all. In actual fact your ratio is 1:4: 4.5 cos one 50kg bag of cement is two pans of cement. This ratio is poor and weak concrete for swamp. For foundation I always recommend 1:1.5:3 otherwise you can do the standard 1:2:4 ( one bag of cement , 4 pans of sharp sand and 8 pans of granite) Reeefe: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Aforxzy: The reason for the perception you have comes from the building framing system its either from the sledenerness of the member (sizes of your slab and beam) or the floor system you have in that office maybe its raises floor, flat slab, claypot, steel.. However there are measures to be taken ro determine if this vibration will not have an adverse effect on the building in the long run. I think d max vibration you should experience is around 5HZ In some places there are some isolators/ dampers installed on your foundation where the building are meant to sit to absorbed this vibration but this problem would have be forseen before the start of project.. How dis vibration occur is the axle load transferred on the road pavement still have some significant value close to your foundation area, you will experience it more if its a bridge thats is infront of the office, and I bet you wont even stay if it was a rail station close to like 3 street far from you the building self.. |

Does anyone here knows a GOOD ALUMINIUM FABRICATOR for ALUMINIUM WINDOWS that has worked for you satisfactorily in your building present or past that kept to the terms agreed without any excuses ,delays or "price variations" under dealing tactics springing up left and right after the person has collected the funds for the work. saying this because My contract term is FIXED PRICE CONTRACT to be agreed with the ALUMINIUM FABRICATOR Honesty is key! The Nigeria today is full of characters that are questionable so this approach is part of the due diligence checks I look forward to hearing from Nairalanders who has displayed diligence in this platform over the years such Baba Egunmogaji, Spyder, Hajji, Twinskenny,Aventure, etc etc to help this informations. I thank you all for the time taken to go through this message and helping out. times are hard! 1 Like |

There's no justification for excuse, delays especially when payment has been received to complete a job. However, price variations is most likely not going to end cos there are several thickness/quality of aluminium materials to use based on client's budget. It's so sad that the market is full of many bad eggs who makes us look bad and major aim is to collect money and do whatever they like. I don't think any of us (fabricators) on this platform do that anyways. Integrity is important back2sender: |

Good afternoon everyone...I'm super excited... Finally been able to drill a borehole...making a borehole here is very expensive, just decided to save up, close eyes and get it done cos the money spent on water if added together would have done a lot for me..... It was a success though, got water at 320ft, number of water supply from tankers were 13, number of casing pipes are approximately 22... Finding water in this area is usually war but, thank God for his mercies, we didn't hit a dry well cos stories I heard about the area when it comes to getting water were scary... Please I want to know if there's any need for water testing? And also what is the cost of an 18ft tank stand? Location: Benin |
