The concrete facial is a non structural member, The only load we have to be concerned about is the self weight of the concrete facial. The polystyrene facial comes in to reduce the self weight by almost 90%. The polystyrene is used in place of clay pots in waffle slab construction for the same reason has self weight reduction. Presently the Polystyrene is far cheaper in cost than Insitu concrete facial and I project it to become far more cheaper when more entrepreneurs come in to Production process. It has an extra bonus of being very durable due to its hydrocarbon properties And for extra points its easy to install and perfect for DIY Prospective home owners. 6 Likes |

FastShipping: Here's what a Nairalander sold to me as 30 tons (the slip shows 29 tons but that's not happening again ![]() So I don't know since I have no scale. I'm still going to do a quarry run myself in March.

FastShipping: The bad apple has caused doubts in that industry. One question, when you order 30 tons, should you expect 30 exact tons or is 29 close enough? In my business, a pint of blood is a pint of blood, if you get 45 milligrams of pain killer instead of 55 milligram during a c section it won't be appreciated ![]() 5 Likes |

EgunMogaji: It is always difficult to get your tonnage right when it comes to sand and gravel due to the following 1. Most of the vehicle used cant carry a load weighing 30tonnes 2.At the quarry, a well graded weighing balance is not used to get the actual weight of these materials 2 Likes |

abdulwastecx: Okay duly noted. So I'll just be paying based on the tonnage listed on the waybill henceforth. Thanks for the explanation. Love the work that you guys are doing. Confused as to why you removed the wall plastering though. |
Re: Harney Project Renovation Work Of A Nairalanders Massive Family House by FastShipping: 4:19pm On Dec 17, 2015 |
EgunMogaji: It has to be close to 30 tons to be regarded as good enough. You could be lucky to get more than 30 tons sometimes. |
Re: Harney Project Renovation Work Of A Nairalanders Massive Family House by abdulwastecx(m): 4:33pm On Dec 17, 2015 |
EgunMogaji: The house was built some twenty years ago with a lot of finishes problems such as 1. uneven wall surface 2. Old and unattractive wall paints 3.The windows are not aligned 4.The head room a not adequate 5. The wall surface too smooth and cant hold any layer of plaster In other to modernized the building, we need to remove the wall plastering for a new layer. 2. |

abdulwastecx:my engr. is the removal of the existing plastering work actually necessary? we discussed about tonnage for sand the last time. but most suppliers would argue there is no tonnage for sand, they use tyres, am confused. ![]() nice work, very neat and perfect, i must confess.... |
Re: Harney Project Renovation Work Of A Nairalanders Massive Family House by Xzevian(m): 8:29pm On Dec 17, 2015 |
I'm highly humble by your recommendation sir, we promise not to let you and every of our customers down. EgunMogaji:sir, your going to quarry can not make the different as no outsider is allowed to enter scale room or buy directly frm the chinese.... The worst part of it is when you fall into a third party/barander hand... .. it is better to talk your supplier the implications of supplyING you less than what you both agreed on. abdulwastecx:I quite agree with you on this sir but no matter how the scale adjustment , it shouldn't be more than 0.95 difference. but there is a way you can measure the granite after the delivery.
