rotecch77: That is exactly what I was saying. Look at how the Toilet is positioned to be used by Guest and the Occupant. And still the people sitying in the Livingroom does not see the Toilet. Good plan. And YES, if that is how the owner wants it, you have no choice o. Agreed. Hajji M |

coldcandy: Thanks a lot sir. Swapping the position of the visitor's toilet and kitchen is a great idea since the kitchen window will add to the parlour's ventilation. Also piping of toilet waste. However the entrance door is where it is to create a little room in balcony for clothes hanger, ac outdoor unit, gas cylinder or even inverter batteries (would have been gen but for the obvious reasons). |

@Hajji M and other professionals here, kindly help me out on this. I would like to know if I can still use Polytene nylon to prevent damping of my building if I don’t intend to do German floor after the foundation. It’s a proposed low budget 2 bedroom bungalow in Abeokuta where the land is dry but I do see a lot of rising damp on the walls of the surrounding buildings, especially this rainy season. I want to prevent it. 1 Like |

MrOkenwa: Good morning, it will have been better if you can do the half DPC ( DPM and concrete casting on all the block walls only) while you take care of other parts before tilling later as it's a low budget project. Your concrete is poured on the nylon So you can't put nylon without concrete. 2 Likes |

Think9ja: Make the burglary in one or both of the rooms an openable one. Make sure that all occupants from toddler age can open it easily. I have one in my BQ and my then 3 year old can open it. We discussed various types of openable burglaries some hundreds of pages back, maybe a search will bring it back. Fire is real in Nigeria, very real and we're on our own mostly. Good luck. 2 Likes |

Good morning and happy new month to everyone.... Please, what's the average cost to pay a bricklayer for workmanship in plastering in and out of a 4 bedroom ensuite? Measurement is 19.6*12.5 Also, this window design using cement, what's the average cost per window? |

Salliet: I have taken contributions from my esteemed Engineering personel here and modified the layout. Hints: 1. Put both toilets together for piping/evacuation ease. 2. Maintain the balcony for cloth hanger or inverter batteries or AC outdoor unit etc. 3. Position of kitchen to improve cross ventilation. 4. Visitor's toilet door was too close to bedroom door in the previous design. 5. The bedroom windows were previously split into two separate 600mm but now combined to a single 1200mm window. 6. Introduced a little shoot out by the kitchen, to make the 2storey building look a bit stylish than being just flat and bland. 7. Most importantly, with the same perimeter of a given space, the closer the space is to being a square the more the area created. Hence most of the spaces are square in nature. What I mean is: Length : breadth: Area : Perimeter L : B : P : A 7 : 1 : 16 : 07 6 : 2 : 16 : 12 5 : 3 : 16 : 15 4 : 4 : 16 : 16 One drawback is that, there will be a visible tie beam in the kitchen. That could be concealed with pop though. @coldcandy @ArcToyin @mufutau55 @uncleteeh @seglad2 @Takoro13 @One4me @Dennis3D @EgunMogaji2 @rotecch77 @Saydfact Kindly look into 1 Like
