johnson232: Building a house: Based on the topography of your land your foundation depth is 600mm (bungalows) and +900mm(storey building,etc,etc.) Blinding 150mm thickness(standard) done with cement+sharp sand+granite with appropriate mix ratio. Raise blocks to desired dpc level (take into consideration the height of existing access road). In certain instances we use concrete mix to fill the block form work (first block from ground) before raising to desired dpc level. If you do all these well without cutting corners you have no reason to worry for capillary rise affecting your structure. The other less economical options are considered for low cost housing projects and not for this thread. 1 Like 1 Share |

Hi @all does anybody has a good Naija website for doors i am now doing doors hunting and doing a comparism between the doors here and in Naija. Skimanski doors would have fitted perfectly into my concept but they are somewhat too pricey for me but if he is willing to negotiate i can call him up on that. 1 Like |

anneikoro: Wait let me go and research from London school of metallurgy ,will keep you updated soon,Just like finding out the diffrence between custard and Akamu, Well from my own thought line , I don't think there is much diffrence ,the only thing you look out for is the thickness -0.45mm,.055,0.70mm and so on,the range of 0.45mm and 0.55mm are more suitable for residential build while higher(0.7mm,0.90mm) are used for industrial builds, As for the metcoppo the only issue is I feel it has is that its prone to leakages at the cropped edges and installation needs to be done by an experienced person . 2 Likes |
