oyinmio: The most cost effective design is a square shape design. The longer or narrower a building the more the cost compare with another of square shape (even if the two have the same floor area). The main reason for this is the perimeter/floor area area. A long or narrow building needs more perimeter wall to enclose the same floor area as a square shape building. There are other reasons that account for higher cost of long or narrow buildings compared with square shape building. However, there are several factors that determine design and building shape I hope this helps. If you have more questions/need clarification, go ahead. For example: For the square, the total perimeter is 240ft. For the rectangular, it is 300ft. Hence, fencing will cost more. Not to talk about other things However, I personally prefer the square shape |

Many thanks. I appreciate |

Takoro13: You're correct. Cost reduction on roof is mainly on lowering the kingpost to reduce the area of the roof covering and carcass. You can also negotiate well in terms of labour. Or you go for more economical roof covering. But, please don't compromise the standard of the wood you want to use for the roof carcass/structure. If possible, treat them with solignum to prevent termite/insect invasion |

So this bungalow has been basically completed but the drainage wasn't taken to consideration during the foundation stage. It drains back to someone site( not yet developed though). It was a sloppy land backwards really. What can we do now to drain forwards to the gutter? If we fill the rear, it Will encroach on the entrance. Urgent advice needed sir |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Takoro13(m): 5:38pm On Nov 10, 2019 |
thaqib:where is your location? use underground pipe of big size(diameter) with drain surface along the line. it will be bury like water pipe, channel it to the nearest public drainage. even others can link up if properly done. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Rubbiish(m): 5:42pm On Nov 10, 2019 |
thaqib:@bold i don't understand? Seems ur dpc is very low Maybe u can construct an L shape gutter from d back channeled to d front gutter to direct d water forward with a slope. The gutter should be covered with metal slab having openings |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by thaqib(m): 5:56pm On Nov 10, 2019 |
@rubiish, the dpc isn't very low, but the front is a little high than the back. So for the compound to drain forward, the filling at the back will have to be quite high.. I got ur advice though. |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Lmdk: 6:27pm On Nov 10, 2019 |
yinkaoke:. Ur budget will determine the next step out of the two i.e the cost for filling and soakaway/ spetic tank is not up to what you will use for the roof. |

Good afternoon all, We have an undeveloped property in Mangoro, When the rains got very heavy coupled with the opened dam, water entered into our neighbors house from the Foundation, All the tiles opened up. Affected 2 rooms and the parlor. What could be the issue and any insight to how to get ti resolved. We are thinking of continuing our own property cos we are in the foundation stage, Kindly advise on what to do so that we dont have that kind of issue in our own house when we done. Thanks in advance |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by rotecch77(m): 6:32pm On Nov 11, 2019 |
temi4fash: It’s never too late now that you are in foundation stage. Go and look for a professional to handle the project for you. About your neighbor issue many thing can cause it, low foundation level, poor job, etc, Quack can not solve the problem let him or her search for a reputable personal in build industry I.e builder to solve the problem once. |
