spyder880: People keep discouraging me from constructing a swimming pool, they say the cost of maintenance is high. Is there a way around It, cos I won't mind including it in my project. |

Well done work Oga Spyder. Plz sir, 6" solid blocks and 9" hollow blocks, which is stronger in constructing a duplex? |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 6:37am On Jan 21, 2020 |
joycluv: I advice you use 9" hollow blocks. 1 Like |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by joycluv: 6:54am On Jan 21, 2020 |
spyder880:Thanks my man. But is there any special reason for this 9" hollow as against 6" solid? Plz don't be offended by my question. Just that I want to be very sure |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 3:04pm On Jan 21, 2020 |
joycluv: There is, we use the 9" hollow blocks which could give us a thicker column girth, which will translate into a stronger columns and beams. 3 Likes |

Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by zamirikpo(m): 10:24pm On Jan 31, 2020 |
spyder880: Boss , some one suggested I use 9" hollow blocks for the exterior walls of the duplex and 6" solid for the interior partitions. Work about to start.

zamirikpo: Not a good idea, some pillar of the house will be bigger that the 6inch solid blocks and installation of in-wall plumbing and electrical piping will pose a challenge with these solid blocks |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 6:51am On Feb 01, 2020 |
diehard: Exactly. Better to use 9" hollow blocks on the whole ground floor. 1 Like |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by zamirikpo(m): 9:10am On Feb 03, 2020 |
diehard: Thank u sir, uve been really helpfully. But like the proverbial Oliver twist , I will always want more. Sir, I see ur lintel entails chaining the house right round, that's essentially the job. But my house has very long Windows, in fact I have wiindoows that almost run the full length of the building. How do u do lintel for such situations |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 8:33pm On Feb 03, 2020 |
zamirikpo: If a client needs very long windows, we usually plan to shorten the beams at the lintel level to cut a window straight up, then use the decking beam as the window beam. 2 Likes |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by zamirikpo(m): 10:39pm On Feb 03, 2020 |
spyder880: Ok....thank u boss, but the main lounge won't be decked. How do u connect such windonws E.g. below
|
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 5:49am On Feb 04, 2020 |
zamirikpo: It's very simple, the decking beam will take care of the connection, plus the decking itself. See pictures of long windows from some of our works in other sites. This house has a void over the living room too.

This is super cool and cost effective Spyder880 How much estimate would this take including the finishing? |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 8:57am On Feb 04, 2020 |
Sarang: Construction of this house in most parts of southern Nigeria that I have studied will be about N13m, except the land has other issues that will be treated like if the bearing capacity of the land is weak, or it's in a waterlogged environment. Finish is according to what the client wants. Normal standard finish for this house will be about 15m, but if the owner will want a super luxury finish, it will cost much more. |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by Sarang(f): 10:47am On Feb 04, 2020 |
spyder880:Cool nah to geh money remain It’s actually more expensive than the others.. It’s beautiful though |

spyder880: Boss u mean normal standard finishing can gulp 15m , much more than the cost of the skeleton. |
Re: The Anambra Modern Duplex Construction by spyder880(m): 11:42am On Feb 05, 2020 |
zamirikpo: It can get up to that. Good tiles inside and outside Casement windows Turkish doors Nigerian wires Gauge plastering Good sanitary wares Wrought iron handrails and step rails Kitchen and wardrobe cabinets POP ceiling Screeding and painting Ornamental designs Burglary proof Good light fittings 7 Likes 1 Share |
