Re: Developing A Two-storey Building (6nos 2-bedroom Flats) in Portharcourt by malkomx(m): 9:39am On Oct 14, 2015 |

Re: Developing A Two-storey Building (6nos 2-bedroom Flats) in Portharcourt by malkomx(m): 10:01am On Oct 14, 2015 |
johnson232:Johnson232 increasing beam height above drawing specification is not favourable to the pockets but if it is done to achieve purposes not anticipated during design stage then at the discretion of the builder/site engineer these changes can be made. Thanks for following this thread.... I'm at your beck and call for professional engineering advice. I'm based in Portharcout |

malkomx:Thanks for your response sir, and I hope to work with u soon, that's if u are willing to travel, as the next project will be in edo state. I can see your work is moving on smoothly, neat job, Just saw the elevation, the project is quite big. what is the depth of the trenches and column base? |
Re: Developing A Two-storey Building (6nos 2-bedroom Flats) in Portharcourt by malkomx(m): 9:12am On Oct 16, 2015 |
johnson232:The bottom of the trench is flat as against the undulating topography of the Natural Ground Level, as such some areas are about 1m deep while some are a little less..... an average of 900mm or 3ft. Looking forward to working with you too |

Now we are good to go. Columns have been positioned, tied to their baskets in the provision made for them. Column base is 1.2m x 1.2m x 0.1m. Some columns 22Nos have 4 runners while others 12Nos have 6 runners according to specification in our structural drawings.... all 16mm rebars, baskets inclusive

Malkomx nice job. The plan is good and I like the flow but I will prefer the visitors toilet not to open directly into the living room (parlour). With this opening into the living room it means the toilet door has to be very air tight or the smell from a visitor doing number 2 will filter into the living area and may affect folks having their meals. I have seen it happen. As the case may be, look into the possibility of locating the door to the visitors toilet in the verander downstairs but it will be tricky situating a toilet in the verander upstairs so look for a creative alternative. Your work is very good. Well done. |

malkomx:brov nice one, how's the weather there? hows the rain treating you guys? |
Re: Developing A Two-storey Building (6nos 2-bedroom Flats) in Portharcourt by malkomx(m): 12:34pm On Oct 22, 2015 |
diordaves:diordaves thanks for your wonderful observation. I've already looked at it but I left that way in order not to distort the internal aesthetic of the living room. But as you suggested the door would be airtight and since the rooms are ensuite I fore-see a sparse usage of this toilet. Thanks all the same sir |
