To cut-short the cost of roofing, we're using flat roofing plan.and to also avoid heat in the room, we're using pop. and to clear the doubt of you all, We're plastering it first before roofing.with full Plastering gauge using Loamy soil +Sandy soil + clay soil + cement. Plastering ratio 12headpan/bag. 6headpan of Sandy soil,5headpan of loamy soil and one head pan of clay soil. Stay tuned 2 Likes

I always tell People, plastering did lots on a building construction, that's if well handled by a Professional Builder,not all this quack Engineer who only base on theory aspect.Ive travelled to Togo and Ghana for Projects,have handled a faculty at FUOYE, Private Hostels at University of Ilorin Campus etc I'm equipped with bunks of experiences 6 Likes

aremuforlife: No body has monopoly of wisdom, we learn everyday. Some are here to learn while some are here to correct some impressions and wrong doing. When we see this type of building practice we need to say a little to reduce. 1; building defects 2; collapse of building 3; bad impressions toward professionals 4; save of lives and prosperities 5; unnecessary nearest future expenses And many more. Remember doctor can only kill only one person at a go but builder/engineer can kill a dozen of people’s at a go when building collapse .... God forbid. We are not fighting here.

HopeVictor:Though it depends on your taste and pocket sir,this is mainly for students,most of Hostels here only have abestos and PVC. We weighed the three options(pop, abestos and PVC),the Pop budget is 30% higher than others and pop have more advantages over the other Options.stay tuned... 2 Likes |

rotecch77: Is this house not Well sitted ? Though Pic don't give an accurate judgement but this is entirely different sir! Like I told you before,pls remain sitted and keep learning new Technics. You can't be using old Technics cos the world is advancing on a daily basis. You can't assume others are quack cos they don't follow the old way of building like you guys mainly known and taught. Well stay tuned... 2 Likes

Good morning Elders in the building Roofing quotations Note- We're using flat roofing plan to cut-short roofing expenses.this is where we need to make use of our brains and Experiences, we're not diverting the water to the back(one way) but to divert it to Pipes at the one corner of the house.We don't need facing board though the woods are excess.

Note 2-4 inches wall plastering So reason why it costs us 27bags of cements to plaster the three self con Couples with our sand combination as well.we're using sharp and clay soil to plaster at first,4 bags to plaster a room(kitchen and toilet excluded). We'd to add Loamy soil to the Plastering ratio cos we need to minimize resources.
