The Sunlight and rainfall are shining/falling directly inside the room (The disadvantage of the flat/hiding roofing system) so we constructed window rain's covers for all the bedroom's windows...

Expertise BUILDER or BRICKLAYER ?

A builder will use about 50bags of cement to construct this type of building bcs they are professional in the field.

A bricklayer will use 20-25bags of cement to achieve this.

There is a BIG diff btw BUILDER and BRICKLAYER.

It’s just like comparing someone who knows how to paddle Canoe to A SAILOR



Pls come and do justice to this Building

Design not really good, i still don't understand the type of roof on that entrance lobby, on top of the two front pillars, does it look good to you? It doesn't look good to me, i feel there's no blue print for this building.

Anything done without criticism is worthless. Everyone has his taste and opinion, they must talk. Note, all critics should refer to the subject title; "...my cheap self con" before criticising. He didn't tell you that's his best rather he is trying to present an economical/cost effective structure type for low income earners. The best we could tell him is to applaud his creativity.

In conclusion of this project; @olukaygold, kindly state the total cost expended on this project for your followers to see.

Cheers !

Actually, I can't specified the Actually amount I spent on that building cos Materials costs were not stables as at times of purchases. I can only give you more hints on how to cut-short or manage the specific materials....Thanks for your write-up sir, you really speak out my mind.

I think the gravel should be 6 or 7 headpans as u av used 4 headpans of Sand for one bag of cement

I've to reduced the measurements because There's already deposited stone Sand in the Gravel unlike Granites that is solely grained rock.

16-20 headpans will lay 100_120 6"blocks.

Ah! But what if we decided to use 12 headpans or less for one bag of cement for blocks setting, any advantage over the above ratio?
