with a due respect sir i think u are taking this professionalism thing a bit too far sir. so what u are basically saying is that a hnd holder shouldn't practice what he studied maybe he should go and do money ritual since he doesn't carry that big name tag to his title? bossman u are an engineer i know that but trust me in structures i don't think u can really go head to head with me even as at 5years ago, i have far gone off to a point i now design for California engineers i ve linked with via upwork and quora, u know what that means right, u have to start studying their design codes, seismic design etc have u even gone into those, or should i send u a design i made for an arab engineer some year back. yet i am not coren certified. all that body does is eat money and eat more money, their conferences are filled with old men sleeping all through the conference lol. in the firm i currently work my ceo will never want to loose me, he dares not i dont even go to office often, i handle big contracts for my self too and they dare not owe me a penny at the month end, thats coz im that good but since i dont carry the coren tag should i stop working and go and start doing yahoo yahoo lol since that one needs no proffesionalism? sir i am not saying professionals shoiuldt be recognized but stop that intimidating talks coz its pointless. i know alot of coren engineers that cant do real design other copy and paste design, we both know the drafting is nothing, the calculation sheet is where the bosses are know. i mean real calculation done manually not those automated ones. my conclusion if u can do those then u are an engineer. EOD!

You guys should leave the "Certified" Engineer alone joor. Hoe did a matter of "dont advertise yourself/Qualifications", become 'stop intimidating others"?
It is not a problem that someone is MNSE and COREN and you guys should stop all these display of coded-inferiority complex.
He never said those that are not Certified are not good or should not practice, he is not the one who made the Law that says you must be Certified in your Profession, that is a Govt regulation and he should not be condemned for being Certified.

If you or anyone feel intimidated by his Certifications/Qualification, it is not his problem, all you need to do is to School yourself to achieve same or more.
The Sky is Big Enough for all birds to Fly and tomorrow, your own qualification can be intimidating to another person.
I dont like this idea of people who are less educated, trying to shade someone who is more educated than them, it is nothing but Bile.

BTW: Professional Certification is one of the best way 3rd parties can evaluate and Validate the competence of any Professional, they have it in IT Sector, Accounting, Building, Survey, Medicine and just about any Profession we can think about.
So, if you are not yet Certified in your Profession, you are still not there.
I even imagine how all those Foreign, California and Arab jobs you are claiming, take your job knowing that in California for example, you cant Send your design for approval or build/operate anything significant (apart from your backyard Shed grin ), if you are not 'Certified' in your Profession.
Even the Driver of a Payloader or a Truck, has to do Exams and be Certified, so what is all the noise over INTIMIDATION?

Don't use my design oh coz if u do, when approval time come and u need one with the title blocks and all mechanical with electrical u will pay more to get it, not to talk of when u will need the cad file. U posted my design and not a single critique. It takes a real quack to put a store just near the living room hahaha

Factors that influence the cost of painting two bedrooms flat

Before you even phone a painter to paint your flat, you should read a post like this to know about the estimated cost of painting the flat. Some of the important factors that will determine the total amount you will spend to have your two-bedroom flat completely painted includes

The cost of paint as per the quantity and quality
The size of each room of the two-bedroom flat
The cost of extra accessories such as any special painting tools
Applied experience of the painter and labour cost
The area where the house is located (houses in urban areas cost more to paint)
Clean up service

Dear CivilEngineer,

No one should take any of the above you said seriously.

Yes, there are Nigerian Engineers who have designed for companies abroad but you're not one of them. Those who do are articulate, certified and communicate properly both orally and in writing.
On almost all your post, on Twitter and NL you keep spamming and mentioning architectural drawings, not a single mention of structural drawings since you claim to be an Engineer.

Also, if you were that good, with those years of experience as a structural engineer, you'll have been certified cos it opens bigger doors for you.

You are also the same person as Stanley000 and have another account also, as such one has to be wary and take everything you say with a pinch of salt.

I am putting this out here so no one gets carried away by your shenanigans.

about my family? no one online can get a true information on my family that i can promise you but you sharing my full names with that ex convict is the nail on your confin. You won't finish that project or any other one for that matter. I will make sure of that. Take care.

I hope you realise that threatening someone like this, in black and white, can land you in jail, if the person decides to file a complaint.
And God forbid anything bad happens to the person, like kidnappers or assassins, you are in deep Sheeeet!

It’s to be noted that it was due to similar threats that our prospective homeowner made the N20K payment under duress.

We’ll get it right one day in Nigeria. One day.

Ogas in the house, please like how much is considered a fair price for the bricklayer charge for plastering of 4bedroom duplex(all en-suite) with 2 units of semi detached 3 bedroom flat(all en-suite)here in Lagos.

I really can’t say as this depends largely on many factors but I’d set aside 800k - N1m as labour charge for it.

I pay my guys something within that range.

Edit:

Sorry I’m just seeing the 4 bedroom duplex part. I think you should be prepared to pay more but not more than 1.5m though.

That clause is in almost all the states Cof O not just your place. But my question is, can you give one instance of where land has ever been returned to the original owners after the 77 years lease?

Errrm we are not on the same page.

Acquisition land is different from family land. If you have any property on it, you won't even get a C of O.

And you will definitely not get compensation from government in the event of a repossession.

Quite impossible. Although, in construction, nothing is impossible.

CC n3xt, Kolashangone, Spyder880, Egunmogaji etc

Alot of factors are involved though. Size of buildings, the "quantity of walls", quantity of concrete to chisel etc..

For this job, any competent work man will charge at least 1 million. Most likely more than that.

I can never put down a penny for any land that I cannot get the C of O.
Moreover, what exactly would hinder the C of O if one decides to apply?
The only reason is if those lands already have one . If there are under a different acquisition other than the original seller ( in that case, the buyer saw trouble and purposely entered)
Thirdly if during gazette someone raised an objection.
