hello house,my engineer says it's not compulsory to add a mat to the columns for the foundation of a duplex,he says since the soil is a tough one,it's not compulsory...how true...

Rubbiish:

80k for two flats?
I hope this your two flat isn't 3bedroom sir?

Rubbiish:

Never wished to sound obnoxious
But i believe often times the cost approach we use for complicated aspects of our build begets the kind of services we get...These stages are one off, we should joyfully spend & have rest of mind...
I bring peace!

EgunMogaji:
Long-term residents of this topic should have noticed that not many people post pictures or discuss their projects anymore on here and I know that people are still building.

I wonder why.

U need to come to America

Don't blame those in Nigeria for thinking they way they do because those of us overseas painted the picture that money grow on tree abroad.
What or how do you expect them think? When people come here to run their mouth telling people how they pump millions into Nigeria monthly from overseas or how they will import the whole of America into Nigeria.
Example look at Erico (my oga nor vex say I call you into this matter), no one has ever called him out because he respects himself but EgunMogaji must attack others on their on thread, insult others then come to this thread to form holy father and then dig himself into grave (by saying things those of us overseas know that he can't achieve and then try to dig himself out). So tell why won't people call him out? Then when people call him out his gang members will come together to suspend your account.

Yes, this is what I found out from my artisans - especially the point about vibration. My Architect & Electrical Engineer had specified ceiling fans for all rooms including those they had also specified with P-O-P and I had simply bought according to the BofQ (also prepared by a qualified QS, mind) without checking. All these professionals missed it.

So, that Mercedes you see in Allcopacetic's front yard, I own the front tires ;-)

The ventilation is theoretically okay you can improve it by making the Windows longer and having high level Windows that are openable above the windows.

this is my first time building,the money ain't an issue,I would not even be aware of this if not for mr saydfact who I give daily pictorial updates of the progress of the work..he made the issue aware to me and when I confronted the engineer,he said they usually put mats for waterlogged lands etc.

Don't mind my language, but ceiling fans are an affront to a good POP ceiling To me, its a necessity I can do without in other to save the beauty of my ceilings.

1. Its ugly on the ceiling
2. Most ceiling fans will come with some vibration on the wood suspending it, incidentally, that's the same wood carrying your POP ceiling. This vibration has a long term effect of making your ceiling unstable.
3. The metal may rust and stain my white ceiling.

I normally use alternatives like an A/C, a standing fan, table fan or a wall mounted fan to supply added ventilation. I am also a fan of the long window which can increase ventilation.
