Mrkumareze: toastedbread: i wld NEVER advice a client to do a lintel and tie it all round the structure because like they say; its gives the building strength, prevents cracks or helps carry the roof etc etc... so many reason ppls give. A lintel isnt same as a beam? in-fact unnecessarily putting lintel all round is an added load on the structure (in places like Ajah with water-logged land) it cld collapse the building under weight... IF YOU'RE SURE OF YOUR FOUNDATION, BLOCK SETTING, WHY WORRY? Lintel i repeat is just a bridge, the only reason it was designed into a building is because of the void created by windows and doors - its not a structural element. NO STRUCTURAL ENGINEER DESIGNS A LINTEL, I'm yet to see one - what they design is beams and columns - I'm sure there must be a reason why? U can use L Sections steel, wood, flat bars etc for you lintel - CARRY GO.... (just do it right using a professional) Thanks.... 6 Likes |

Daboomb:It was a grate concept, but using scaffolding pipes for overhead tank! What happens when those clips starts to rust? Also, it means that there was no plan to have gate in the self contain considering the span of each unit. These are my few observation. Once more, grate work. 1 Like |

Hi, you did a good job on this project in terms of neatness. That said, pls dont get offended when people ask you questions on your project. They are trying to understand your methods and the reason for them. On piler issue, this particular one level project can do without it. The reason beening that there are lots of divider vertical wall such that it can support the roof both horizontally and vertically... we also dont experience seizmic condition much in Nigeria too. So you are good. Six units, with Kitchenettes and toilet wall, all cramed into one small build. quote author=saydfact post=61709412] Ur comments on scalford clips implies u maybe do not have adequate knowledge of them...

saydfact: Below is a picture you supplied on page zero. What do you call this sort of Piping? Conduit or Surface Piping? Again, you seem not to remember that "forces on a Building" are not just vertical? They could be vertical, Horizontal and even sheer forces (that pull things apart) The building elements themselves themselves (including weight of Blocks and Mortar, wood noggins and roofing sheets, e.t.c) all introduce different forces due to their weight, no matter how small (especially sheer forces) that can only be counter-balanced by adequate linking/chaining together. And to think that because your ground is "Rock" therefore the building does not experience "ground forces" is like saying Earthquakes can NEVER occur where the ground is hard! The Earth's crust is in continous motion and upheveal, that is a fact Anyone who has done a little Physics would have encountered all these in a section called "Moment and Froces". (Basic level physics). Most of us talking about adding pillars at specific points in thebuilding at looking at the "long-term" stability fo the building, not the short term. Blocks wear and disintegrate over time, it is the concrete elements that last longer. Anyway, what is done, is done. We are not here to argue but to commend your work and encourage people like you even further. 3 Likes
