Good morning to you all, pls I need help. My brother bought a land(waterlog), there is a raft foundation on the land, 12mm iron rod was used for column(puller) in the foundation but my brother intend to build a story building with the foundation met on the site. My question now is; 1.should we continue with the 12mm iron rod for the column? If No, how can we introduce 16mm iron rod to the foundation? 2. Secondly, the foundation plan we met on the site is not the structure we want to build on it. Should we just do monolithic floor and use our own plan on it? Cc: engineers and experience builder. Thanks in anticipation |

michlins: I really love your work and business acumen. Keep it up bro! Your big job is coming. On this particular job, the local welder got the upper hand with his pricing and nearness to the site. He’ll be mobilized this morning. How much per linear metre is the sidestep below? I really wish you would handle this job but the other guy too na my gee � Thanks for your understanding bro. 2 Likes

michlins: This is one area I have issues. I don’t know how to negotiate. Just give me most reasonable pricing and let me know if there are any other things that makes your job different. Two of my close friends lost a bid on my ongoing project because of pricing. One wanted to do plastering for 1.8m and the person who got the job charged 800k. Maybe me sha ![]() 1 Like |

n3xt:I don't about plastering business but when it comes to my work, you will have to negotiate. Someone might want same thing as you but with less customization and his choice of materials less. Meanwhile someone else will be willing to go all out to get the best. So how I run my business is to play out all the scenario and customization which are possible and then let you choose. But whatever thing you choose is EXACTLY what I will use 3 Likes |

Number of 16mm depends on number of columns but 100pcs is too much. Use estimate of 1 length of 16mm per column starter. The 12mm too may be too much. Do 1 basket and multiply by the number of columns. You have to be on ground! Pls use only 9 inch blocks for the foundation. Post the structural drawing for better advice. igboitalo: |

Abolarin91: 1stly Congratulations. But you should consider that mistakes or improper application of material, idea or skill (unprofessional ) in building construction is a trap or conspiracy against yourself the owner. OK? 1. Pls consult any good structural engineer around you for a proper inspection on the existing foundation and the right materials needed. You can consult 2 or 3 of them. 2. If the structural engineer is positive about building on the existing foundation get an architect to see your dream house you wish to build then he will know the best way of designing the existing foundation to suit what you want to build if not he or she will advice otherwise. It's always cheaper to hire professionals. Dubemcapital 3 Likes |

Good morning all, Please I need someone to help me with steps/stages to follow next in my building construction. To the glory of God, we've completed the roofing and also concluded the piping for the plumbing and electrical works. I suppose plastering should follow next. Since I'm overseeing the rest of the project myself, I need to know what what other tasks should follow sequentially until the house is fit to live in. |
