If you are moulding, will the moulder use a vibrator? If yes,then go ahead and mould it but if not, go and buy vibrated blocks.

Hello Sir,
Do you still need concrete mixer, pls contact with us.

Best regards
TERRY LIN
Email: terrylin@wztianyuan.com

It is my intention to buy a concrete mixer and a brick making machine.

Then pay a laborer to make the bricks under supervision.

At the end of thd project sell the equipments.

It won't work for everybody though.

I enjoyed reading this trend. Well, I am an entrepreneur in this field and I can categorically tell you that I produce solid blocks.

I don't tell my customers to stand on my blocks or soak it in water to confirm how solid it is, I raise the blocks up to my chest and leave it freely to fall, no cracks after experimenting this before my customers.

You can actually tell from the pictures below that these are strong blocks.

WHERES IS YOUR LOCATION AND HOW MUCH PER BLOCK...6INCHES

Ajah, Lagos.

The price varies with the location

Please I really want to know how many bags of cement s can mould one trip of sand. Please can someone help me.

[quote author=ETHIX post=28904868]Please mould your blocks. Find details below:

A tipper of sand cost 14,000 (not sharp sand o)
A tipper can mould 16 bags of cement
Workmanship per bag is 700 naira
You can mould 35 blocks with a bag of cement and the block will be very strong.
The cost of 1,120 blocks is 105,700 naira
Far better than you buying 1000 blocks for 120k
You pay for workmanship according to the bag of cements used which. . .
Your piece is still helpful till date. Thank you.

Strongfaze:
Moulding is the best. Except that you need water abundantly to cure (bath) the blocks to make them very rock solid. And please concentrate on the amount of blocks per bag of cement. #40-50 per bag# those moulding it will arrive at either a plus or minus of your set target. Furthermore, 10 yards of sands can easily get you close to 1,500 blocks.

do u mean 10tons of sand?

I also believe in moulding blocks. But my question is this, is 45 blocks (6" from a bag of cement too much?

tasland:

I don't think it's possible.
I am a practicing civil engineer and also a building materials estimator.

If you already have a building plan for your 20-rooms building, you can reach me on frankitangltd@gmail.com for a materials and labour estimations of your proposed project.

USAutoBuy:
Allow me to chime in a little bit into this very controversial subject. Concrete blocks depends mostly on the quality of aggregates (sharp sand, soft sand etc) and most importantly the mixing ratio.

Because the way Nigeria is, most people want something for nothing. Lets assume that a properly made block will cost like N140/block, people will come and start haggling even though they know its the normal price in the market.

What most block makers do is cut back on the quality to accommodate the price. If someone is adamant that they want to pay N120/blk, the guy will say fine rather than let the money "walk out the door".

I was listening to a program one day and it featured Engineer Victor Oyenuga (President, Nigeria institute of Structural Engineer 2009/2001) and his recommendations is as follows:m


3 sharp + 1 soft + 1bag of cement = 25-30 blocks


I have 2 close friends that produces blocks and even though they produces a little bit more than recommended, they agreed with the the above.

My 2 cents

Thanks for the good input

Assalamu ‘Alaikum @ alfa0,

Let me drop some lines to your inquiry.

1. It depends on your circumstances. (How fast do you want the project to be completed will determine if you need to buy ready made blocks or mold yours) however, molding has a lot of advantages over buying. e,g Quality of blocks and relatively lower in term of cost.

2. Depending on the area your project is located. We have different sizes of Tipper Truck deliverING Sharp sand. But in a simple term, 10 tyres full truck load of sand will give you 650 Blocks of 6" (15 Bags of Cements @ 45 blocks per bag) or (15 Bags of Cements @ 25 blocks per bag = 375 for 9" )

3. You will require Sharp Sand for making a strong block, also depending on the state. some state called it different names and some location also mix different sand. Here in Lagos we use sharp sand.

Do let me know if you require additional information.

I wish you goodluck in your project.

Shalom.

Where are you?
