Chekitaut:Scanty pillars. This one is death trap! Funniest thing is that when it's plastered, no one will see the potential death trap that the building is. |

That 6-storey building in Kenya appears to be a waste of money. I dare not live there. 1 Like |

This a five-storey building constructed on top of an old building is among the 226 structures marked for demolition. http://nairobinews.nation.co.ke/news/226-buildings-nairobi-earmarked-demolition/ |

I'm actually more intrigued by the neat patterns on the wall of the adjacent building.... Is that concrete ? Almost looks like aluminum composite panels EgunMogaji: |

allCopacetic: Concrete facade covering a bolted inner frame. It's how they do most commercial structures now in California. They put them up unbelievably quick.

mimini:There are many Ma; ABS, JK...you can easily get which one you want in the market thou quality differs. Cement+ POP emulsion paint+ Bond/Gum. You can use ordinary cement for your external wall screeding to blend with your plastering, and white for the internal wall as it reflects more light. |

Interesting, i get a clearer picture of the process from the second image. Ease of fabrication/construction is a high point for architectural designs in North America and most of the West. In Africa we want buildings that are impenetrable and indestructible , and ironically we hardly ever have earthquakes, tornadoes and the rest. I guess our peculiar security situation would warrant that EgunMogaji: 1 Like |

allCopacetic: What I also like is the fact that they manufacture almost everything offsite. So the traditional messy and noisy building site is minimized. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by allCopacetic: 3:35pm On May 07, 2016 |
Which makes alot more sense, as opposed to trucking both fabrication equipment and material to site and back. "On-site" time would be mostly for fit up or installation; significantly reducing completion time EgunMogaji: 1 Like |

AZUH: You need to get professionals in the field to your site and let them take a look, assess and come up with solution. Stop asking for solution through the internet. This is a major problem you have that needs some experts to get involved. I repeat, get professional to your site to arrest the situation. 2 Likes |

Hi guys, I have an ongoing project in PH. About to do the plumbing. I need an idea on how to make good choices of the PVC pipes and other plumbing materials in the market. I'll appreciate advice on how to get good and affordable materials. Also, a recommendation for a plumber is appreciated. |

AZUH: The person I know won't go to Delta. Look for engineers and architects in the state and let them help solve this problem. Good luck. 1 Like |
