Goodman001:Pls I think roofing should come first before you go for electrical conduit . Just asking 1 Like |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Rany4all(m): 5:26pm On Oct 06, 2022 |
oduncojamaica:Not necessarily Sir. Electrical piping can sometimes be done before roofing, especially if you want to avoid cracking concrete later on or if you plan on installing some sort of lights on your concrete fascia. I started my own piping just before casting lintel and my electrician preferred it that way because it made the work easier for him (no concrete cracking). That being said, if you're going by this route then you may just put only the plastic pipes before the roofing and then add the knockout boxes, DB, and so on after roofing to avoid corrosion of metal parts from exposure to rain, especially if you're not roofing immediately. See sample below! If you zoom into that entrance porch in the 2nd picture, you'll notice a pipe that runs through lintel and roofing beam without any cracking whatsoever. Also note that the knockout box for the socket was not installed at the time. 2 Shares

oduncojamaica:I felt so too, but the electric guy said it would require more cracking and breaking of the parapet lintel..since we haven’t cast the parapet yet he said it’s best we install the piping inside the “parapet lintel”reinforcement woodwork and then cast around it. We have already done normal lintel, and he said he would have to crack that which isn’t too nice and neat..so best we install pipes now before casting of parapet. |

Goodman001: Is the electrician doing full or half conduit? The quantity of pipe he quoted can't finish the work if he's doing full conduit |

topsy23:I really don’t know o, but he mentioned doing what’s important for now and once we roof we can finish up, so with that I think maybe it’s not full conduit.. |

Hello gurus on this educating thread, i want to seize this opportunity to thank you all for the well seasoned information I've gathered from here. We started our kobokobo project 2months ago and below are the pics of how far we have gone. It's a 5 room bungalow with penthouse as the current economy won't permit us own a duplex yet. �. PS: the height of the foundation is 6coaches of blocks + the beam all round which makes it about 7coaches before German flooring. Please what is the pros and cons of this type of foundation. It's on a dry table and solid ground. Oga Spyder Oga Hajj Oga twinskenny Oga feigk All other gurus Please come Chuck mouth for this matter. Thanks |
