Would you buy a piece of land adjacent to a pipeline? What does Nigeria's Land Use Act say about lands' proximity to a pipeline. The land is in PH. Any information will be highly appreciated. |

InvertedHammer:No l will not buy for safety reasons, although the government frowns at buying /building close to pipe lines but I see some people disregard such laws, they get goaded along to buy by omoniles and land owners but they forget that someday it will come back to hunt them, even if you succeed in buying and erecting a building on such lands, what if there is explosion on that pipeline, it becomes pennywise and pound foolish, I will not give it a second thought buying such lands. 2 Likes |

I am not an expert but me just throwing out my opinion from my little sense. This setup on the picture is dangerous, an accident waiting to happen. Single 4" c channel steel, try climbing up the tank then you will truly feel the impact from wind. My thought is overtime the weight and constant movement from the wind will cause a joint to snap or even deformation on the stand itself . For a bungalow the effect might take time compared to a Storey building. A friend told me of a bladder tank they use out in the country side in Canada but I just can't recall the name of the tank right now. The way it is setup is that the borehole pump, pump in water, while the tank create pressure for house hold by compressing the water in the tank. I just can't remember the full details. A tank like that can be placed on the main floor and will eliminate all these elevation setup. Again just from my sense cindybaby22: 1 Like |

InvertedHammer:Not too certain if there is a written law. But I think if your land in question is +100 meters away from the pipeline location then it's okay. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Dremca(m): 4:26pm On Nov 28, 2017 |
cindybaby22:why not use underground tank because this poses danger. |

bixton:Thanks for the insight. It is not up to 100m. Other than risks of explosion and inferno, what else could be a problem? Other folks are putting up structures. Just wondering...I wouldn't consider this place for anything residential though |

InvertedHammer: The most important risk is the government of the day when they come knocking. If you can get a CofO for that land/property from the governor/government then you can go ahead. |

cindybaby22:I wouldn't advise u to try one legged stand Four legs with a close spacing of even 3ft will be more balanced than one leg. |

Rubbiish: moulding your blocks for 4500blocks likely cost u N500,000 Lagos setting block one is N50 and Benin 100 blocks bricklayer N3k and server 2k setting 4500 blocks about 230k 1 Like |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Rubbiish(m): 7:22pm On Nov 28, 2017 |
GoodFaith:Yeah....Nice analysis Moulding of blocks tend to be more cheaper But because of the controversies sorrounding the land, we had to quickly buy blocks to fence it In the north where the fencing was done, they charge 30 per 6inches block & 40 per 9inches. I preferred counting because everyone tends to be more serious trying to meet their target. The 100block per day thing is very hard for many manson to meet when it comes to 9inches block. |

Honestly, I did fencing of a exactly the same size few years ago. Im sure that fewer than 66 columns were used at the end of the day. lets do simply calculation for COLUMNS alone!!! Perimeter Length: 200 ft +200ft +100ft+100ft = 600ft So, 3Blck(10 Coarses) = 30Blocks So, 2000Block / 30Blocks =66.6 ~= 65 columns can be made Now @ 10ft spacing, 600ft / 10ft = 60 sections Its possible in MY view snakebeat: |

Rubbiish: I swear, I respect you more on this even if the figures are not what the "Oga professionals" them want. Why would your figures even make sense when people feel... No, the OP should pay for the info. What I dislike is the way everybody came in condemning your post without giving alternative suggestions or to state what is actually wrong with your figures. Some were even outrightly sarcastic. Kí ló de? The other I don't understand is the rapid sharing of phone numbers for professional advice.... By the time person schuk head inside that one...
