jesusson2020: Maybe the 30 tons in Berger is different. I know my Mack truck will load 30 tons in Berger Sand almost 3 times. |

jesusson2020: Which means the red truck is about 15 tons thereabout. |

temi4fash: For sharp sand, no china truck can carry 30tons. 2 of this will carry 30tons and the sand will even remain. 1 Like

temi4fash: Let me give you ideas. I mistakenly ordered 200 tons to sandfill a compound in Lekki County. When we got to 120 + tonnes, I cannot but shout “Jesus is Lord” What you’re seeing in the pic below is just a little over 120 tonnes. 1 Like

Any reliable sharp sand supplier in Ile Ife - Osun State. Kindly let me know the price of your #Sharp Sand 20 Tons and 30 Tons. Granite - 30 Tons. Filling Stand 10, 20, 30 Tons respectively. Thanks. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by jesusson2020: 4:39pm On Sep 07, 2020 |
temi4fash: Usually it's called 30tons, when supplying sand. Suppliers call it 30tons, builders, end users call it 30tons. But where sand is been sold, 13.5 tons of payloader sold for 33k, will fill that truck to capacity. 30tons of payloader where sand is been sold, will fill 2 capacity of china truck and remain. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Let's not be confused with the terms tons and volume! Ton is a measure of mass of a substance. Volume is a measure of space occupied by a substance. The pictures showed that 30tons of sand and granite occupies same volume which is not possible. 30 tons of sand will occupy about 19 cubic meters or 19,000 ltrs of space (19 pcs of 1000 ltrs water tank). 30 tons of granite will occupy about 11 cubic meters or 11pcs of 1,000 ltrs of water tank). So if thesame truck is bringing you equal volumes of sand and granite as 30tons, then the supplier is a cheat. 30 tons of sand is more than 30 tons of granite as seen by the naked eye. temi4fash: 6 Likes |

Fromwater:how many entrance doors do you have at the building. I will advise that you use iron doors for all the house. They are cheaper and more durable. Each door below costs #18,000 for the single and #28,000 for the double door 2 Likes

coldcandy:Exactly sir. The specific gravity/ density is the main determinant of the volume. A ton of sand would be more voluminous than a ton of gravel. Plaster sand that is finer would also have more volume than sharp sand of the same mass. 1 Like |

n3xt: Interlock Update While awaiting the delivery of stone dust, I took time to conclude pricing per sqm with my production crew. We agreed N450 per sqm (250/m2 for casting and 200/m2 for laying) Total Labour Cost For Production/Installation = 189,000 Note: we are producing 8cm thick stone. The cost of producing 6cm will be cheaper. Later tonight or tomorrow, I’ll show the difference between a 6cm stone and 8cm stone. The guys working on this project are moving from Ogun state to Ibadan and their charge remain the same That’s one of the benefits of making yourself a preferred customer. #brabusinterlockDIY 3 Likes |

folmus:according to your budget, you will be needing something basic like this. Should cost 8,000 for 4ft by 4ft. There are cheaper and more expensive ones too. The attached door is something I made for a Nairalander some years back 2 Likes 1 Share

rajput4real93: DIY Interlock Amen and thank you. I just encourage you to pay attention to the numbers as they’re coming. N70,000 already sent to the stone dust supplier and the 189,000 for the production/installation has been set aside. I’ll be making arrangement for cement tomorrow. I use Dangote. Lafarge is cool but it takes longer time to dry and because of the thickness of the stone we are producing, it become difficult removing it from the mold. The production crew are happy to work because they already knew there’s another 942sqm waiting for them in Ikorodu in the coming week. #brabusinterlockDIY 1 Like |
