Hi Guys,
Please send give advice on what could be the cause if this cracks on the wall in the attached.

What people should understand about estimation is:

when an estimator says you need 40 tonnes of XYZ, the fact you paid a supplier to supply that and you end up using '60 tonnes' doesn't make the estimate wrong..

The fact is except you have a weighbridge or a GOD fearing person, you'll be supplied 10 tonnes as 20 tonnes...

I ONCE WENT TO THE QUARRY MYSELF (in 2007) to buy granite, I followed the tipper all the way to the site and delivered it to a site I was project manager on; MY CEO came to site and asked how many tonnes it was, I told him 30T.. He's a Q.S with years of experience - he said; NO! its impossible who supplied it, I said One supplier like that.

I didn't tell him it was me, cos that wasn't part of my job description...

I'm not saying your supplier is doing that pls, I'm just explaining the challenges we estimators face.

ALL THIS ADD UNNECESSARILY TO BUILDING COST.

Very good work on the project. Yes, this COVID era really messed-up a lot of things for everybody o. But eventually by the grace of God we shall all finished whatcwe started.
Yes, it will really be nice to see how your solar and automation goes. I know you are planning a lot for that solar system. Keep us informed with your experience on this. Thanks.
