There will be a fence and gate
There will be a borehole
There will be an overhead tank

Very good work you're doing here Sir.
Please, what is the estimate budget for this project?

spyder880:
we now plan to remove the front columns on the ground floor, and hang the upper passage as a cantilevered projection, freeing more space for use of the plaza

Good morning sir, I thought the front columns will start from the foundation to the last floor. pls how will you achieve it if you remove the ones in the ground floor. thanks

Well done bro. I noticed the Foundations of this building is not as deep as the ones of your former buildings esp storey building. It's usually about 2 feet +. Any explanation for this?

Foundation design due to results of the soil test and the preferred depth where we can get a good bearing capacity of the land.

Something like this from another site, it's usually done to create more space on the ground level, a space for parking cars, stacking some goods temporarily or for ease of movement of traders and their customers.

The people that will be making blocks for us sent me these samples for tests, but I will not be testing these, I will go to the block site to test the strength of the blocks there.

Work is continuing in this site as we have brought in our reinforcement rods and started work on the lintels of the ground floor. More pictures later.

Work on the reinforcement rods of the ground floor lintels has been going on. We are also bringing in our aggregates and other needed materials.............
