So over the years you have aquired structural and civil engineering qualifications right? And architectural qualification to boot? You now have the qualification and expertise to interprete geological/seismic reports and translate same into civic structures and even certify them? If the answer is no; I now have closure why you kept getting into difficulties.

Sigh!

Don’t you read the part we have the team “in-house?”

Anyway, I’m not here to trade words sir.

Let’s understand what’s wrong with the foundation design from the professionals who have the certificates.

That’s the Simple Question begging for answer! Abi learned professionals have absconded like suppliers ni. We want to learn.

Leave me out of it.

If the next comment is not an answer to the bolded part, I’ll simply take a pass sir.

Peace!

32.5 is the recommended grade by all cement manufacturers.

Higher grade and rapid hardening cements are not too good for plastering works if you want to avoid plaster cracks that might arise from drying shrinkage, especially given the high temperature here.

Ordinarily, one would assume the higher the grade the better. The nature of the sand used also matter a lot.

Really?

We used to have many sand/granites suppliers here but nowadays they have all dissapeared. I dont know if they are all out of business or just dont frequent NL anymore.
Recently I contacted one of them for a friend, and he told me has since gone out of business. So, I dont know o.
Thanks.

coldcandy:
Chekitaut! Good evening sir! You have just challenged science that sand is heavier than granite!
This can easily be verified. Can somebody fill two paint buckets or any equal containers, one with sand and another with granite, and weigh them on a scale?

What is the outcome?

flekky07:

I don’t have anyone who will sell cheap to you in that area. All the suppliers in Unity/Cooperative Villas/Badore environ knew me and I know their prices.

That’s why I decided to do my own dump truck because they’re in business to make profit and I can’t stand in their way.

I’d suggest you talk to your supplier and discuss getting further discount with him.

These things ain’t easy as it was presented.
Any truck you bring into the area that’s not working with the suppliers will have serious issues.

I’ve been a resident of Unity and Cooperative Villas and know almost every suppliers and block makers in the area, I can tell you this won’t come easy.

The bolded part above sum up everything.

With increases in building materials the smaller houses design are getting expensive to carry out and complete.

Off topic question: Please, what has been the effect of the recent inflation on labour daily charges for bricklayer, mixer and helper?
I am still in the dark there.

At my side, I’m still paying same rate.

@flekky07

If this looks good, I’ll see if I can get you the contact of the guy who supplied this to men at cooperative villas.

He’s one of the most responsible supplier on that axis. I really mean responsible.

He has been in that area for years.

I’m not guaranteeing he’ll be cheaper or not but I’m sure he’s very reliable and no one can stand in his way in the area.

I’m talking about granite. The sand were delivered using NextHome dump truck.

I have known my suppliers for ages tho, I can pay him up front and go to sleep...... last time he cautioned it might delay because of police road blocks at state boarders during the lockdown.....it was timely delivered for use......for sand, the quarry is less than 2 kilometres from my project.....I just call and pay them on delivery.

I have no supplier that I can recommend. As a general rule I don’t recommend artisans or suppliers.

I’m blessed on the location of my current site. I just walk outside and flag down a passing truck, any passing truck and I put in an order.

Yep! Pretty simple.

I look forward to setting something like that up with 4 bedrooms, I am still considering a location in Nigeria.
It's simple and better for my knees lol.
