Chekitaut: Oga chekitaut, What can be done to make this better? I don’t see myself paying 130k to lift materials of less than 60k. I’m not mean. I just don’t see myself paying that much sha. I believe there should be a better way to make the price cheaper. #justasking 2 Likes |

mufutau55:I find it very annoying that we are adopting a style and proud about something that look like a collapsing building with the foundation being eroded by erosion. ![]() The first engineering idea about stand or pillar is to support and spread the load over a particular area, if a certain part of the pillar/stand is not fully resting on a solid firm base then it's only a part that carried the load which inturn diminished the strength of the pillars or stand, unless it's different in architecture which is not my field. If the design is just a decorative pattern it still has to show the look and functioning of the building than looking like a collapsing building. |

I have a general question house, I hear the cost of labour for bricklayers and helpers for ground floor are different from first floor, what are the modalities involved for determining the cost of labour for first floor labour/work, and what percentage should the difference be? Over to our honourable experts. Thanks. |

Your so much on point . Why does he believe that every sand supplier is cheating home owners while he dishes out the most expensive sand . I bought granite at 180k for 30tons and he was quoting 220k for same 30tons . Everyone should do their due diligence and buy from the right source EgunMogaji2: 4 Likes |

adanny01: I disagree sir. UK used QS while most other Western countries used Cost Engineering. Quantity Surveying originated from the UK. Some countries even call it Construction Economics. @ the bolded, you can go online and read about BOQ and BEME, no country in the world used the word BEME, it is peculiar to Nigeria. It was coined by Nigerian Engineers trying to usurp the place of QS in Civil and Heavy Engineering projects. Whether building, civil or heavy engineering works, it is Bills of Quantities. The matter was debated at the National Assembly some years ago. BOQ= Bills of Quantities BEME= Bills of Engineering Measurement and Evaluation BOQ is the only recognized document for its purpose in all countries of the world. Efforts are underway to rid Nigeria of BEME. 3 Likes |

Enyinne: He’s Lagos based. You can get in touch with him. The only guarantee I can give you is you’ll be proud of the quality of your job. I’ve seen roofers and I can tell you he’s exceptional. He can also work with your carpenter if you already have one. |

Good evening friend. Here's my recommendation based on a 1.20metres high Kingpost, given that it's a small building. 0.45mm or 0.55mm gauge long span aluminum, including eaves and fascia covering = 242 square metres. The roof members are; A) Wall plate, 75mm x 100mm x 3600mm hardwood (3' x 4' x 12" ![]() B) Tie Beam, 50mm x 150mm x 3600mm hardwood (2'x 6' x 12" ![]() C) Rafter, 50mm x 100mm x 3600mm hardwood (2' x 4' x 12" ![]() D) Struts, 50mm x 100mm x 3600mm hardwood (2' x 4' x 12" ![]() E) Purlin, 50mm x 75mm x 3600mm hardwood (2' x 3' x 12" ![]() F) Noggin, 1200mm centre to centre, 50mm x 50mm x 3600mm hardwood (2' x 2' x 12" ![]() You can easily get the price of these items in your location as price of items are currently fluctuating now.

June price change to This Granite 3200x30tons=96k Transportation =120k Tollgate & Revenue=4k I bet any reasonable supplier to contest this. Sand i gave her 70k for 30tons after raft foundation My price Sand13tons @33k+7ton @22k=55k(No chines truck carry up to this) but because if i am her terrain i will quickly deliver & leave i charged transpotation 15k making it 70k.

n3xt:Nothing is messing the building up! We all have distinct aesthetic preferences as individuals. Because an art design does not please few individuals doesn't mean it has ruined a building! It is just individual preferences. Same way some individuals prefer high roof to low roof & vice versa. It is just an artistic design & has no bearing on the structural integrity of those columns. 4 Likes |

QSFemi: @kimiwa a QS that know his job has spoken. I go with his submission. ...given that it’s a small building. I am actually waiting to read other responses and see what their recommended kingpost will be. Note: Your kingpost is measured from the roof beam. 1 Like |
