[quote author=meohio7777 post=69030654][/quote] The quote is padded,1 ton of 12mm is 185k, bag of cement is 2600 if it’s in Lagos,binding wire 1 bundle is 8k too, 2*3 plank is 150 per piece, 30ton of sharp sand is 45k, 1*12 plank is 1130, am r can doing a project of twin duplex in ajah in a water logged area and these are the prices I bought these stuffs for in Lagos,so if your project is in Lagos I advise you buy the materials yourself and negotiate workmanship,this is how I have been doing mine,hope this helps |

At current rates, there's no way you land a 30T trip (which is effectively 18T) of sharp sand to your site for 45K even if your site is next door to the quarry. Never! check the qty, spec and source of what you're being supplied and you'll find something is fishy somewhere. You have valid point that some of the materials prices are higher than market price, albeit marginally. cc: meohio7777 Teebawse: |

bixton: The quotation is padded |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by bixton(m): 9:45am On Jul 03, 2018 |
rotecch77: I want to think so. But you know every architect/engineer/builder has a good reason for putting certain things in their quotes. At least the OP should be able to inquire more from whoever gave the quote. There are always new ways to doing things . |

That's even less than cost price from source. Clearly you don't know how these things work, so no point trying to convince you on this. If you're really not in country to monitor your project like you said, then I'll only advice not to beat your chest on this particular item. Teebawse: 2 Likes |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by abdulwastecx(m): 5:23pm On Jul 03, 2018 |
Teebawse: 185k is for local iron, when you want to buy tiger, cookit etc it is 230k upward. You can get plank for N1130 but very good one start from N1300 upward, salt-free sharp sand is N50k upward for 20tonnes |

I've always admired Australian home designs. Most parts of Australia are just as hot and humid like Africa, so in my quest for a functional home design for retirement, a home with good flow, connectivity, airy and light, I had a look downunder Australia. I was so pleased. The achitecture is so simple but versatile and modern. No gragragra and wasteful features and fixture like most Nigerian blend. No unnecessary Roman columns, expensive parapet. It's really the floor plans that I'm just in love with. I've sampled some Australian floor plans for critique. From duplex down to four bedrooms, three bedrooms. What I like is the flow of the the whole house. The blend of the kitchen, dinning and living area. So one can be cooking and still engage with the family and then the master class is how this living area flows seemlessly to the Afresco, what we would normally build as a boring balcony. And then what they call the media room which is effectively a reception room for visitors. Yes, some of the plans attached my need minor adjustments according to personal way of life, but I think in the grand scheme of things, Australian floor plans are better suited for hot climate than our current design in Nigeria. Our homes are designed to depend on AC and fan too much. Too many dark areas with no natural light or even ventilation. I think our achitects can do better. What do you guys think? PHOTOS: plans with Afresco.

Question: I don't really like this idea of hanging ac left and right in the house. I think it makes the building ugly. Is it possible to build a duplex in Nigeria that utilizes central air?? I have never seen one before. |
