THE PRICES ARE NOT HIGH - you can also walk into a sawmill to confirm yourself.
ON THE QUANTITY? No1 can tell you if its high or low; unless the Architectural drawings is made available...

Thanks for your response, however, I am using slate and not aluminium or any fancy roofing sheets, so I expect it to be of a lower price in total but was surprised

Please help guys.

Good morning every one. pls were can get vibrated blocks around Ago place okota Lagos and at what rate.
I also what to find out the difference in terms of qty btw hand moduled blocks and vibrated blocks cause my engineer Insists on vibrated blocks .

futurism:


It seems people ignore and select the questions they answer here these days. Unlike before. I hope they help you out sha

segzy14:



The compressive strength of the vibrated block is more than the hand mould.

Takoro13:

bros, i must say to the world that the hand moulding blocks are far strong to so call vibrated block at considerate number.
what constitute a good and strong blocks are: soil type, handler/moulder, water ratio and season, quantity per bag, cement status and so on. the first set was not good as the subsequence set set till end.

gbadexy:

It's best specific engineers' monikers are mentioned so that they can respond.
They may not be chanced to follow the thread regularly but once mentioned, they would see it anytime they are online.

Rubbiish:

Some experts here stated 12mm can safely carry the weight of a car for soak away, so u may not be needing 16mm.

Hello all. I'll be needing an urgent reply please. Is it possible for 35m to build a block of 4 flats (2 ensuite bedrooms ). This would include Aluminum roofing, POP, wall screening, painting, all toilet finishings including walk in shower cubicle, gate house and gate, generator house, all plumbing, electrical and mechanical works, interlocking, windows and doors,(Turkish doors) full tiling (Nigeria tiles) etc.
Can 35m build it from start to finish?
I got this quote from a builder. Is it feasible?

Thanks for the detailed response.

Yes I am still keen on molding the blocks on site, below are some of the extra info you requested;
- We will use both sand and stone dust mixture
- We are looking to hire the molding machine and labor required
- I don't know the different type of machine, i just know of vibrated block making machine

Leads me to next set of questions...
What are the rates to hire molding machine and what is rate for labor per block?
What is the desirable sharp sand & stone dust mix ratio?
I understand the 30-40 blocks per bag of cement part, but how many cement needed for 1 trip of sand (just as example)?


If i have these info, then i can do the numbers and work out my material list and cost to achieve the total quantity i need.

Thanks

Rubbiish:

The least i have spent on labour is 1.5k
None have accepted less than that
It is usually 1.5k to 2k recently
Maybe because u give them job frequently & ur location though

Dominionng:


It is charged per sqm. Volume, location and most importantly type of design are major factors in deciding rates per sqm. Don't let anyone deceive you that there is a fixed rate per sqm for POP ceiling.
There is what I call
Budget designs(image 1),
Average design(image 2) and
Luxury design(image 3)
In budget designs, one is expected to use a bag of POP cement for 2.8 - 3sqm, 2 - 2.5sqm for average designs and 1 - 1.5sqm for luxury designs. So, since materials involve and time to achieve these designs ain't same, it is expected for rates to vary. Talk of quality ceiling or POP Precast vs Plasterboard is a discussion for another day.
At the moment based on the present hike in POP materials, you can get a good ceiling from 4,000/sqm. Maybe a little lesser if your project is in the eastern part of the country(POP materials is cheaper in the east at the moment).
