Can the supplies be made for this? Let me know so that we can work together on the dimensions and the designs. Just a few parts of the stuff will be needed, majorly the numbered parts.

Good day sir,
We don't have the 3D machine to do this.

Sir,
It won't be plastered, the joints are covered with poly plaster and also any part that might have scratches.

It can be screeded though if you are screeding the whole building or you want it to me much more smooth than how it comes. Just like screeding other walls that have been plastered before.
good evening can the parapet also be painted with white paint

Has anyone used styrofoam for the coping of a planter? I'm wondering if it's appropriate as people would like stand or seat on it from time to time.

I'd love to hear your thoughts about this.

If people wld sit or walk / stand on it... I ts not advisable.

I've used it in a similar situation and it requires a lot of maintenance from time to time... Too frequent to advice its usage.

@Teewhy2 Nice to know i do complete buildings with the EPS and can go to any region in collaboration for the unique chances to make a mark in this country because i now know that with EPS you can build saving 60% on labor, 40% on material and 80% on time, i know that is where the future of affordable housing is. so feel free to hit me up any time

This is very interesting. I have sent you a email request. Pls respond ASAP.
Thanks.

Aluminium is not even a option.. Obviously that's why it's cheaper.

So, I should just go for polystyrene parapet, pls what are the advantages of polystyrene parapet over aluminum parapet?

My concern over polystyrene parapet is the way it's been mounted to the wall, it seems not that perfect, it's likely to fall off over time unlike aluminum parapet which will be nailed firmly to the roofing wood
