MrOkenwa: The guy don't want to put pillar because of the small span, he assume the block should be able to withstand the load from the vehicle. the right thing is to put columns on the corners, column and beams are load carrier. another option is to fill the blocks at the edge with concrete. 1 Like |

Hello everyone, I need clarifications on these construction question for a 3 storey commercial building 1. Between 12 and 16mm rods, which is used in running the beams for the second slab 2. Can 12mm rod be used in running the pillars of the second and third floor? Thank you |

Jonecbosco: In what capacity are you asking this question? If a homeowner,seek professional engagement from a qualified and experienced civil/structural engineer or builder regarding structural matters. Homeowners should not be debating such issues with their builders (from a position of ignorance) IF the builder is qualified and experience to do so. Engage a professional and trust her/his judgement and interpretation of the structural drawings. If you are a DIY builder, you are encouraged to seek professional help from a qualified expert(s) for structural issues. You may resort to DIY for painting and decourating stage. Are you a pretender builder who got stocked at this stage and now seeking help online? It is not advisable to encourage you further as the construction may be unsafe as you don't apparently know how to interprete a structural drawing (if you have one). The answer you seek is in the structural drawing. Are you a building student/apprentice? Refer to the stuctural drawing and ask for help if you can't interprete the drawings. If there are no structural drawings, you are not being well tutored. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Pls tell me the cause these fence to change to green. we painted it last December 20019. It is a dry land. We used fine coat paint

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Fonyeri(m): 3:32pm On Jul 30, 2020 |
*First the paint in question is an economy paint that doesn't have the required properties or components to withstand the atmospheric effects of that environment. *Second the top of the fence is not well treated, it should be completely sealed off and coated with rainshield treatment paint to prevent water thereby stopping the growth of algae and moisture. Thirdly the surface needs a biosidal wash and coated with an undercoat before painting Abita23: 2 Likes |

Abita23:Like they've explained above, the main reason is the quality of the paint used. The paint is loose and absorbant due to degradation and it retains water instead of water to slide off. Anywhere that is always damp would have algae and fungi growth on it. Use a wall treatment with algaecide and use good quality paint. |

Jonecbosco:Good evening , Structurally using 12mm for column and beam that will carry 3rd floor slab or roof beam load is not acceptable in construction practice . Pls pend your project if you knw u can't afford using 16mm for now to avoid stories. Don't accept advice from layman or mason. Pls do you have structural drawing from details? Safety first 4 Likes |

Yes oga Rotech, I will like to say this, All deal or contract should be well annotate, i think this will also help. In any deal or contract, there should be an agreement between the 2 parties. And this should put into written form,so it can be enforced @ any points ( contract agreements). This will also save pple from quack parading as professional. Where marketer/ block maker wouldn't be claiming to be An Engineer all bcus of stomach. I think this will save pple from being cheated or scam Because i observe most deal here are like PAROLE! Let change how we deal, professional here knows what talking about and also some Homeowners. Then the agreement not necessary prepared by lawyers, if we want to save cost or for small deal But it good we consult legal practitioners for better format! Let alway do it right. Biztech consult. rotecch77: |

valencia2012: NA WA FOR UNA OOOH..... people shd respond to this kinda post more - but na the ones that require 'I am this or that, contact me @ 080.. ' una dey like..... My advice would be to do all in close proximity - except you're doing CONCRETE CAST FACIAL (parapet) - but even I dont encourage concrete cast because of the weight and un-necessary expense... I'll say, do precast or polystyrene but only when you're ready to roof... Goodluck 2 Likes |
