MODALSOUL1:Why is the bathroom not at the edge in the games room? Higher cost of piping & occupants will have to inhale the air coming out d bathroom. Of which a window could have been placed on d edge wall. The two rooms at the left, what is wrong having the closet & wc in d inner space to allow a better ventilation?

abdulwastecx:Sir is this 0.2L like a constant when designing a cantilevered slab? |

MODALSOUL1:U just confirmed my suspicion Ur design is an imported one Stop comparing nigeria architecture to foreign arrchitecture, we don't have same weather, so don't expect same design approach... just one question & do answer with sincerity; Are u an architect trained in Nigeria? 1 Like |

skimanski: We talked about this before. That lovely house that had the imported windows (no burglaries) was featured on Cribs. Another member brought it up. I think it's on the thread. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Nobody: 8:02pm On Feb 15, 2018 |
MODALSOUL1: That and the fact that you're not in Nigeria is actually double bonuses in my opinion. You just need to collaborate with a young Nigerian Architect who is ready to work outside the box. |

Rubbiish: From a structural engineering perspective, that formulae will give an optimal cantilever length that will reduce slab span moment |

MODALSOUL1: Your house plan is big. Is this a rental house? My only critic is the floor plan have too many walls. I prefer open floor plan. To get to the Living room, you have to go through hallways. Not cool this days. Reduce the walls. Open up the space. |

MODALSOUL1: Nice. You better make sure your Builder/Architect is aware of this because going by your plan, it is all walls. |

Rubbiish: In an organised environment Architects put up designs (drafts) for any structure/build of any type and the Civil/Structural Engineer comes up with the structural aspect of the design. The duty of the Engineer is to bring to reality the idea of the Architect and that cannot be compromised given the right materials for use. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by bixton(m): 9:35am On Feb 16, 2018 |
skimanski: Every client is supposed to bring his/her design. It is the duty of the Architect/Engineer to make it work-able to the best of his/her intellectual capacity. |

Rubbiish: There's a 3 storey built hotel in Edo State where the toilets as designed don't have windows but vents. The architect who built it is not same as the one who designed it. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Rubbiish(m): 10:07am On Feb 16, 2018 |
bixton:U should know less considerations are given to ventilation & lighting for hotel designs. Have u seen bathrooms/wc without windows for residential buildings in nigeria? |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by bixton(m): 10:50am On Feb 16, 2018 |
Rubbiish: Not done in Nigeria, does not mean it can't be done. It's a matter of choice for use by the individual. I remember, I have seen a toilet without window in a family friends' 2 bedroom apartment. It's a guest toilet though. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Rubbiish(m): 11:00am On Feb 16, 2018 |
bixton:Sir not everything is a matter choice Health is paramount Lets use u as a case study; don't u aerate ur bath/wc occassionally? To have a healthy indoor climate, it is recommended u aerate your toilet occasionally in order to replace the moisture air, especially in this part of the world. We should try to understand the health implications of everythng we do with our build. It will be sheer hypocrisy for me to encourage someone not to use windows for bath/wc that easily get stuff up with odour because of its function. How will he/she carry out proper aeration? 3 Likes 1 Share |
