SLIGHTLY MISALIGNED columns can be subjectively adjudged.

RC structural members can be optimised to suit desired results as most buildings these days are framed structures

Generic solutions applies as a fit for purpose results
chimexdnice1:

Pls experts in the house, I want to know what's the structural implication(s) of a slightly misaligned column at the ground floor lintel level of a duplex building. Assuming other columns are aligned well. Thanks. Am asking because I read some comments on this tread on that issue but nothing was said on its implications on the building.

Hello guys.
Sadyfacts and other gurus in the house.

I got the attached quote, kindly help review.

I'm open to suggestions and will go for the best with the most affordable cost.

Soil test says 26m deep
Structural drawings says 23 pile points.

Just to do piling it's ₦5m.
What about pile cap?
What about rafting the foundation along the pile cap?

To build in water logged area is gbese óò.

Foundation alone could cost close to ₦15m.

Kindly help review, as the drillers suggested using sacks in place of steel casing just to save cost.

Thanks


Please if u must do pile, please do it well... Don't say because you want to save cost, u neglect the structural drawing or Structural Engineer's job... Take a stroll through ups in gbagada before you make any decision

Sosqui:

Hello,
To be sincere with you, this is quite outrageous.
I had a similar experience. First, they confused me with the soil test and put me in a panic mode. Thank God, I met a former classmate who recommended I do the test again. To my greatest surprise, 28m turned to 8m. Did the soil test again, it was still 8m. The pile foundation was done for slightly less than N2mm.
My advice, go to Alausa (if you are in Lagos) and let them recommend someone to do the test for you. It will cost you between 70k to 90k (for personal use and not government use).
For the sharp sand, the prize is between N28,000 to N40,000 and 1 ton of 16mm is N190k to N195k. On the quantity, I will try and do a tutorial on how you can do the calculation yourself.
Have a good night rest.




Lovely. How many times will someone be nice before he can be called a nice guy?
