Project completed.
Light up the apartment: check out the night view.

What do u think?

Hi there, congratulations with this construction. On one hand I was very happy for you because this new building looks really rich. But on another it looks so out of place as compared to other houses in the area. In Canada we don't construct this way. Plus we think of dryer vent cleaning https://dryerventcleaningtoday.ca/ at all times, so we install vents properly already at the point of construction. So that we won't have problems with them later.

This is beautiful. OP, so what was the total cost of construction from start to finish?

The estate is located along a major highway and there are series of building construction works going on there, so it won't be out of place.

We spent over 50million to complete the project carcass only.

This project was completed and delivered within one year : carcass and finishing

Here are some of the challenges we had and what we did while working on the project.
1 The site:

we observed [/b]little discrepancies in the dimensions of the construction drawings and the actual land size. There was an old bungalow with numerous attachments on the land that were pulled down before we were commissioned to build. This maybe the cause of the discrepancies.

During the excavation, we encountered some concrete mass from the old building that we had to break off to make way for our new structure.

We also obseved that the land was a bit sloppy. So we continuously look level to ascertain that the building was on a plain surface.

2. Construction & Coordination of workmen on site

We learnt to mind our core business which is Building construction and engage capable skilled expert to work with us on other areas.

We made sure all drawings needed for the construction works were available on site and revised works were communicated on time to party involved.

We prepared a workable program of work and cash flow for easy monitoring cos believe in proper project scheduling and planning.

The subcontract works were contracted out almost immediately the project started so we could meet up with the delivery time. Each of the subcontractors/ fabricators was expected to work with the programe of work.

We had a little issue with water on site. The first borehole we dug was later condemned because the volume of water gotten was not sufficient for the occupants of the building. We had to engaged the services of a geophysicist for the geophysical analysis of the site to prevent a re-occurence.

Of course we had several issues with omo-onile and we were able to resolve them.

Construction & Coordination of workmen on site:


We do not compromise on quality so we ensure the right mix ratio always.

We bought materials in bulk and store keep them.

Our subcontractors were advanced ahead of their job to reduce the impact of inflation on materials


We believe in getting it right the first time. So we put out our best hands and brains to the job.

We had reviews regularly.

We worked as a team irrespective of our work scope and resolve issues immediately they arise.


And we relax after the job is done.

We are just a call away.

Let's look at the key structural components of this structure.

Foundation

The foundation is the very important element of a building construction. The choice of Foundation type depends on the bearing capacity of the soil.


It is very important to carry out the sub soil investigations of your site to determine the bearing capacity of the soil.

For this site, the bearing capacity is very high hence the choice of pad and strip footing.

...

The dpm
Dpm (the damp proof membrane ) otherwise referred to as nylon, is a thin sheet of polyethylene sheet laid under a concrete slab before casting the ground floor slab to prevent the concrete from gaining moisture from the ground by capillary action.

The dpm is very important in the prevention of raising dampness in building which can be problematic when it occurs.

Happy holidays Everyone

Columns.
These a vertical structural members of a building. They transfer loads from the beams and slabs to the foundation. The size of column and quantity of steel depends on the loads on the column.

For continuous columns, it is important to provide adequate lap length for the steel and beams should be lapped around the columns.

For this building, we had 450 x 225 and 225x 225mm columns.

We introduced some new columns on the first floor as recommended and provided for in the structural drawings..

......

Happy new month of August.

Still your best plug for building and civil engineering Design and construction works

The beams
These are horizontal members of the building. They transfer the load from the slab to the columns.

It is wrong to assume a particular size/ qty of reinforcement bar is sufficient because everyone does it that way.

The quantity and size of their rebars are determined and calculated by the structural designer.

For this building, the beam size varied from 450mm-600mm.
