spyder880: I envy the fact that you didn't have to pour money into a fence right away. My N1.2m for fence to secure the land would have fast tracked my small bungalow build instead, |

EgunMogaji: mufutau55: True, I thought of fencing, then I remembered that I may not need to secure anything now since there are good neighbors and relatives always passing and watching everything for me. I only get to show them some appreciation sometimes. So far, I have spent about N8,000 on PR to the neighbors. |

Carriage of blocks upstairs N10 x 1,260 blocks =N12,680 7. Making of 19 bags of cement x 700 = N13,300 8. Transport and loading of materials = N18,000 Total N276,730.00 Add this to the previous total and we have N4,015,211.00 spent so far in this house. 2 Likes |

EgunMogaji: The layout of the rooms will remain largely unchanged, I only changed the window design, I will like to have the double windows shown at the left side of the ground floor to be repeated at the right hand side, then on all the upper floor frontal rooms, so the look will become uniform. |

imoci:[quote author=spyder880 post=40701397] Good job oga spyder; I have a question. Looking at your structure and Responce;We are about moulding 9 inch blocks that will be used from dpc to lintel level/ of our duplex; thereafter use it from decking to roofing. We have decided to mould 30 blocks per bag of cement as you did, as against 40 blocks per bag that was done and used in completing the foundation to German floor. Will there be any negative impact on the building due to the variation of the blocks. ( I understand we shouldn't have gone up to 40 blocks per bag; it's been done and regretted anyway). My concern is if it will affect the buding ( foundation) using the more stronger and I believe could be heavier blocks we will make now to use from dpc level,as against the one moulded 40 per bag already used. Thanks |
