BITSWORKS Nigeria is a multi-discipline construction company comprising of architects, builders, civil engineers and interior designers.

We currently have a brief for a client to construct a residential dwelling on a plot of land in Harmony Villa Isheri by OPIC. The Site is not a virgin land, the existing structure was bought and will be demolished by the client.

We are presently still tweaking the design of the building due to the peculiar size/shape of the land. We will share the floor plan, elevations and 3D views once we have finalized on the design and permission has been given by the client.

Size of land - 443.86 sqm
Total area of building - currently unknown
Total unbuilt area - 0.00 sqm
Percentage of site covered. - 0.00%
Percentage unbuilt - 0.00%

Estimated budget for construction - currently unknown
PROJECT timeline - 10 months

We are currently constructing a side of the perimeter wall and since its still part of the project, we will showcase and highlight the construction process here in the interim, until we start the main dwelling unit construction.

For the perimeter fence, due to the low bearing capacity of the soil in the location, we are going to construct a raft on which the perimeter blockwall will sit, with columns at short intervals to further strengthen the wall.

As can be seen from earlier pictures, the existing structure is already sinking and to forestall this for our own development, the appropriate foundation has to be done. The option of bore pile or raft foundation is still being considered.
Re: DIY: Construction Of Residential Units At Harmony Villa [isheri OPIC] by BITSWORKS: 7:51pm On Jun 21, 2016
Excavation for the raft trench was started on Saturday and concluded on Monday due to intermitent rainfall.

We dug to a depth of 8inches and had to stop at that depth because we were already exposing the concrete base of the PHCN pole beside the perimeter wall and to forestall a collapse.

Re: DIY: Construction Of Residential Units At Harmony Villa [isheri OPIC] by BITSWORKS: 6:56pm On Jun 22, 2016
More concrete casting pictures of the ground beam. We used a mix ratio of 1:2:4 to ensure that we laid a solid footing for the perimeter wall.

Re: DIY: Construction Of Residential Units At Harmony Villa [isheri OPIC] by BITSWORKS: 10:07am On Jun 23, 2016
We removed the formwork and started with the blockwork yesterday. We are using 9inch blocks and will have concrete columns at every 6-7 blocks layed.

At the end of todays work, we were able to achieve 9 coaches in 2 bays and will finish up the 11 coaches by Satuday for all bays. I delibrately make sure the bricklayer does not lay more than 4-5 coaches per day for stability and alignment.

Well done BITSWORKS! @ the bolded, that's the right mindset you need to carve out a niche for yourself as a contractor/project manager who will never compromise standards for money. Not every client will like you for taking that stand, but surely the best will come your way, Amen!
I have been following your projects, I like your standards, keep on the good work!

We casted the columns today, 5 in number and with that we are done with the construction of the perimeter wall.

Though am not actually on site or in Lagos but I have competents site managers that I entrust work to and they deliver to specification.
