well done sir, but may i ask, how do you stop or rectify the hole/holes where the ground water is coming out into the trench?. because to me there seems to be an aquifer. |

dubemcapital:Its a very lovely design boss.but what i would have is to do raft. In as much as we are in the raining season, the water table of that area is equally high.a trial pit would have helped a whole lot.but a dry mix with a specific concrete strength in view would help coupled with adequate number of columns at strategic positions. 4Y16 steel bars with 10mm stirrup at a mix of 1:4:4 for columns is ideal and double basket for column base just as you mentioned is thumbs up for me. God bless you sir. 3 Likes |

StDonE:Spot on with what you said,that is the hazard of buying a water-logged land, it eats deep into your pockets, l deliberately avoid anything swamp or water logged areas, the extra money spent to solidify the foundation is enough to carry your structures far, all my buildings in lagos are on dry land. 2 Likes |

dubemcapital: because of the nature of the ground in that environment, I think it should have better done in raft foundation. |

innovestor: Internal partition walls are necessary. You are right about the fact that in a framed structure, only the pillars (columns) & beams bear the load of the building & transfer it to the foundation. However, it should be noted that in a framed structure building, partition walls above the ground floor bed (or dpc), though they don't carry the load of the building, also exert their own weight on the floor bed (or dpc). As such, if there are no corresponding partition walls in the foundation to counteract the pressure exerted by the weight of the partition walls above the dpc, the walls above the dpc would create a 'punching' effect on the dpc, thereby causing cracks on the dpc along the lines of the walls. I saw this happen in an estate in Abuja sometime last year. I hope you understand my explanation. I would have done a small sketch, scanned & attached it for you to understand better but I'm on site now & can't do that. Its a structural issue which can only be fully explained using structural jargons & detailing. 4 Likes |

To what am seeing on this low capacity bearing land and water logged land the kind of foundation necessary for the foundation is a raft foundation and a dry mixed ratio and after foundation as been met den filling will be done followed by the dampproofcorse then the germanfloor should Be met then any patern can now Be met and corrected on the german floor shikaina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Nice design bro. but I don't support this your strip foundation in a water logged area. reinforced strip foundation would have been better or raft foundation if you have the money. to avoid stories that touch. Civil Engineer Speaking...... |
