Oga Spyder, after the DPC and even after the house is built, what about the water surrounding the house; how will they get rid of it, so it does not affect the house itself? I am just thinking aloud...

I plan to fill the compound with laterite sand above normal ground water level so the foundation will be safe from the effects of the water level. The good news is that Enugu lands are far from the ocean and so the salinity level is lower. We have cast the DPC today and we reinforced the perimeter of the foundation with iron rods as I usually do.

Another thing is to prepare a good water channel gutter to allow rain water to run off along the sides of the fence.

@Spyder, Thanks for the useful info. Please, don't forget to update us with the pictures of the DPC reinforcement as we follow this interesting project. I'm pretty sure the owner of the project is not second guessing your judgement as you're a highly skilled builder. Keep doing the good job.

Floor layout with minor changes. The added toilet, kitchen, dining area, rear balcony and dining exit door. Hoping the landlord will like the layout. We can still make some changes tomorrow morning.
