rotecch77: Thanks for your contribution. I wanted opinions on the prices quoted. I also know that the price quantity quoted for won't do the job but it's smtn to get the job started at least above foundation level |

We have a land but unfortunately the bricklayer that worked on it used up all the space so we want to adjust to foundation to fit into current realities. The foundation has already been completed although no German floor has been done. What should we be looking out for?? |

We're looking at more block only that we've not firmed up total number of blocks to be used. How much is the max to lay 1block? And on a per day basis, what's the rate. ak22: |

A General Advice Bricklayers are not cost experts or engineers. They are not professionals. It is surprising how people commit millions of their hard-earned money to these artisans and end up getting their fingers burnt. Avoid being penny wise and pound stupid. I have been involved in troubled projects just because the needful was not done initially. It is usually painful and more expensive in the long run. Do the right things today. Wishing you the best. 2 Likes |

davodyguy: IF what you've been advised to use is pile foundation (IF), you'll need more than a rough estimate, you'll need a structural engineer doing a detailed design and a Q.S for cost advice based on that design. Goodluck 2 Likes |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by davodyguy: 2:49pm On Dec 20, 2019 |
saydfact:Hi When you say 'if' Is there any other foundation that could have been recommended for a soil that porous? I want to learn more on this |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by saydfact(m): 3:02pm On Dec 20, 2019 |
davodyguy: Its difficult for me to know, because I haven't visited the site or seen pics - for advice, study the houses around and the type of foundation used... Another option is to STABILIZE the land if its that bad - then use RAFT foundation; to safe cost.... but IF the structural engineers says its PILE, I believe he knows best, follow is advice. goodluck 2 Likes |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by davodyguy: 3:05pm On Dec 20, 2019 |
saydfact: I just want your advice based on experience. We've done a study of the houses around, and more than half of them are already experiencing uneven settlement. Those built using raft are worse off. Those built with pile up to 7metres deep are already settling badly too. To save cost, that's what I'm thinking, but I fear for settlement |

Abdullah36: In order words it called Hidden ( concealed ) Beam. This is Cross Section Detail within the slab thickness. ( flat slab beams). It is usually placed around slab openings, inorder to reinforced and reduced large slab spans or where regular beam down-stand is not architecturally preferred. 2 Likes

davodyguy: STABILIZE THE SOIL - It would take a about 6 - 1 year to achieve...... (based on experience) OR do a deep pile as you plan to.... (Note: I didn't suggest Pile was wrong, I'm only imagining if the land is that bad; since your replies suggest it is - do the needful) Goodluck 1 Like |

rotecch77:Thanks for ur explanation sir Does this foundation beam runs through all the walls, both internal & external? Or it is only external walls? Someone told me it is only on external walls. cc saydfact |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by rotecch77(m): 10:05pm On Dec 20, 2019 |
