MrLittleFinger1: Which part is confusing? Maybe it's because of the spacing of the sentences there. Its correct bro. Though for more realistic site material schedule, one or two indices there might be tweaked a bit, depending on the experience of the person doing the calculation. 1 Like |

abeffiom: it is just a popular among building construction expert to interchanged those two. to me DPC ( damp proof course ) is a combination of a membrane use after filling (with leterite, hard core and sharp sand) and the concrete placed on top of that membrane basically to prevent moisture from rising through the foundation. basically it serve other structural purpose like allowing a uniform building level to be achieved after foundation, it also serve as tie to join the foundation wall together. the BRC ( British reinforced mesh ) is introduced at the middle to prevent sinking under its own weight and cracking due to internal tension which may developed in the concrete. summary. DPC = DPM + oversite concrete 13 Likes |

I just did this today. An event centre only on ground floor. We fixed columns with pads and also ran reinforcement on the wide strip foundation |

Wish I could have this time to write something like this. Currently, am handling a project in Imo state (2 bedrooms on d ground flr and a pent flr of 2bedrooms also). The client initially, based on "his engineer's" advise, payed me off after design. I backed off under agreement. Now his engineer can't handle the project to my details. He started building based on his assumptions. Where I had cantilever by window side for AC on the pent flr, he thought it was a terrace and added door instead of just window. The building on site is far far different from my drawings. And the client has observed it. He's been begging me to come and complete the job. I told him that for every week I visit owerri because of that project, he must pay me 65k. If he agrees, we have a deal. 4 Likes |

abdulwastecx:really dunno if this would help, kindly study d pic below,u would clearly c dat d dpc(at the left) is clearly place at the perimeter of the building while the DPM(at the right) is place within d floor area, not withstanding most contractors usually use a polythene Sheet to cover both d floor area and d perimeter of the building 1 Like 1 Share

abdulwastecx:Is that cost for an ordinary site plan or a registered survey plan or levelling? R u a surveyor? If ur answer is no, please don't mislead ppl with dis. Correct it |

Ok |
Re: Proper Analysis Of Design And Cost Of A Foundation Design For Bungalows by abdulwastecx(m): 12:15am On May 24, 2015 |
pinkbee: Madam... this is relative topic of discussion. I am not a surveyor but building leveling can also be done by a civil engineer ( see engineering surveying), All these quotes here are for relatively small building work of say two bedroom to three bedroom flats. |

abdulwastecx:I disagree with the mix ratio u explained here. The 1:3:6 is used for mass concrete n the 1:2:4 is for reinforced concrete. Pls try n verify n apply corrections too. 1 Like |
Re: Proper Analysis Of Design And Cost Of A Foundation Design For Bungalows by abdulwastecx(m): 5:31am On May 24, 2015 |
temmy6996: 1: 3: 6 is weaker than 1: 2: 4 or 1: 2: 4 is stronger than 1: 3: 6, The difference between the two is just the cement content and the ratio of aggregates. we are talking about a bungalow where the load on the structure are not that critical, hence a well placed concrete of 1: 3: 6 will do the work sufficiently. The problem now is we don't even follow these ratios because of inadequate concrete production mechanism like batching plant. |

Castos: hardcore is not a concrete but is the material put under floor . It is used as a sub base after building the foundation wall to make up levels before casting the ground floor oversite concrete of DPC. The recommended type of material for hardcore is hard stone ballast or quarry waste that is retained on a 150mm BS sieve . Care should be taken to ensure that the hardcore is free of weeds, roots, vegetable soil, clay, black cotton soil or other unsuitable materials. Broken stones or brick and waste concrete from a demolished structure can also be used as hardcore 1 Like 1 Share |
