MaxNdu post=/post/26817410: Yes, Y16 means 16mm rods and I am using them for all the entire foundation stages, no 12mm here. The column bases are 300mm deeper than the rest of the foundation depth. Better to spend enough money and leave a foundation that will last for 500 Years |

bugmenot: You are right about that... I am a nervous kind of guy when it comes to things like that... that kind of structure will never be in my yard. Hajji M. |

mufutau55: Welldone to all Oga's in the house. For me, I think the water tank is structurally stable. I think it will only be affected by wind load when the tank is empty. I also feel it shld not carry more than 1000 litres. |
Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by mufutau55(m): 3:29pm On Oct 03, 2014 |
KolaShangOne: OK. Oga Kola, I will agree with you simply because I know you are an Engineer that deals with this kind of things every time.. But it does look like that Tank is about 1500 Litres but then it may be 1,000 as you have stated, but it does look small though. But still personally and a layman I will be scared to have it installed in my yard.. Thank you. Hajji M. 1 Like |

mufutau55: the reason is because of the "cantilever " experience abi? |
Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by mufutau55(m): 3:45pm On Oct 03, 2014 |
segzy14: One of the big reason, my brother... Some of the readers in this thread did not know/read about that, so I did not try to bring it again. Hajji M. |

Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by KolaShangOne(m): 3:57pm On Oct 03, 2014 |
mufutau55: Yes I understand Hajji. But even you don sabi pass we Engineers o! The beauty of structures is that sometimes it may appear less satisfactory and mind boggling to the ordinary eye. I love when people ask questions like "how could this stand"?? "This thing looks like it will fall". That's why I love this building job. |

Getting full

Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by spyder880(m): 10:53am On Oct 07, 2014 |
We need to pump the whole foundation with enough water, this will sink in this first filling as we add more soil
|
Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by spyder880(m): 10:59am On Oct 07, 2014 |
Concentrate on the corners

Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by spyder880(m): 11:15am On Oct 07, 2014 |
Notice as the soil start to descend into the foundation gradually
|
Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by spyder880(m): 11:18am On Oct 07, 2014 |
This will be a long and tasking stage as we will spend all the time we need to pump water until we are satisfied with the settlement of the soil into the foundation. Need to buy a lot of fuel to keep the generator working till as long as necessary.

Re: The Port Harcourt Luxury Flats by spyder880(m): 4:26pm On Oct 07, 2014 |
We are not relenting in our efforts to give this foundation a good treat.
