Sunofgod: The most important problem construction in the east is proper structural designs, civil engineer materials like granite/gravel, construction techniques and poor quality control on the job. For example, here in the north, you can easily get your granite from the quarry at a very affordable rate but in the east, you will have to go to abakalili (in Abia state), the cost of such granite makes home owner and builders to use very poorly graded alternatives that has too much clay. These alternatives will weaken your concrete and leads to very poor concrete that may not be able to carry the load intended by the designing engineers. Secondly, most of the building are built without a proper structural design done by a qualified engineers, these buildings are built based on the experience of the builder of smaller structures, that is why most of the building collapsing here are three floors and above. |

abdulwastecx: These has nothing to do with East. Why narrow these Nigerian problems to east? As a matter of fact, Easterners have Majority medium high rise building than most region in Nigeria due to land limitations and we hardly hear of building collapse in the East. Go to Onitsha and see arrays of 4 storey building, how often do u hear of building collapse in the East? The points u listed above are peculiar problems to building industry in Nigeria not just East |

Thank God no life lost. Just imagine this happened while work is going on. Our building regulations should be enforced especially in gigantic projects like this one. |

Arysexy: Because I am a coren registered engineer that has worked in the east and other geopolitical zones in Nigeria. These problem are widespread but it is more pronounced in the east. Due to the fact that easterners build taller buildings than others and without the soil and raw materials like clean granite like westerners or northerners. I have done jobs in onitsha and I can tell you from a structural engineering perspective that most of the medium high rise building are poorly built, they are like death trap, if such building were to be in Abuja or Lagos they will be mark for demolition 1 Like |

abdulwastecx: Oga you are equally talking to a COREN registered Engr with 2 Masters degree in Engineering. I still maintain these points you listed are peculiar to Nigeria as a whole and not just East. There has been more building collapse in Lagos than other parts of Nigeria combined. I wonder what stopped the demolition of such buildings in Lagos before they collapsed if not Nigerian factor? How many states in Nigeria have soil test facility and approval centre? Most medium high rise buildings in Nigeria don't undergo these processes and we know it, Lagos, Abuja inclusive except for high rise buildings like UBA house in Marina. So your effort at narrowing the problems of building industry in Nigeria to East is flawed. 1 Like |

Sunofgod: I feel you bro, the engineer made a costly mistake or the owner had no plan to raise it that tall from the onset couple with the fact that the direction looks windy, if the second building has the same plan then it won't last 10 yrs |

[quote author=makewetalk2 post=82312392]we are happy that the building is still under construction. all these current landlords who build olden days sized kitchen as living room and expect to make their money back in 2 years. these new landlords built pens and poultries for humans to live. I pray all substandard building like this collapse before completion. no one needs to die T.B Joshua did not appear before court when his grave caved in and innocent faithfuls died. people are still blinded. are you all not aware that T.B Joshua and Adeboye are not in agreement? do they serve the God that advised his servants to be in agreement? no! they serve a god of disagreement. they both call Jesus but they do not see each other. and to top it all, adeboye claims to be a humble man but he cannot make the first move to mend his ways with T.b JOshua. and adeboye is old and going to grave. do not deceive yourself thinking that adeboye will smell heaven chairman, OFF TOPIC ASSOCIATION...i greet u sir |
