Casting of oversite concrete a.k.a German floor.

segzy14:
Blockwork in superstructure.

FastShipping:
The concrete work looks fantastic. But why German floor and concrete columns in a bungalow? Too many overbuilt buildings these days.

mufutau55:


Soil test may decide/require that. And columns is not a bad thing for bungalows too anyway... suppose the client wants to put a parapet..

FastShipping:


In case of parapet, yes the house needs columns. By just looking at the soil, this is a solid land. On a general note, we tend to overbuild in Nigeria these days. I know some homes built with mud in my village that are still standing strong after 65 years. We tend to overbuild and waste money these days. The house I currently live is brick house from top to bottom with no single lintel or column. Imagine it is not a one floor home. The house was built in 2011 and I expect it to be the same in 200 year's time - if I'm still around.

Oga fastshipping, 200years ? I know you don't pray to be around at that age

FastShipping:


With the way I watch what I take in and out of body, I won't be surprised if I'm here for another 250 years.
