that space does not matter as long as what the first coach of the blocks are laid on is solid enough and obviously, the beam up there is solid, THE BLOCKS IN THIS KIND OF STRUCTURES ARE MERE PARTITIONS as it ought to be in standard houses,

Yes, its because you understand buildings, some will now jump on board and say its bad work. Also, those insisting on some kind of blocks will now see that blocks don't carry the house, its the columns and beams that matter most.

Well done spyder on your project. I will actually want you to expect critism from people viewing this thread.
We may ask questions that may seem stupid to you, this is because we do not know much. Please pardon us then.

When you bring up topic like this online, expect to see novice and pros alike. All you do is try to prove yourself or learn from such individual.
We all learn from so many questions and critism fron this thread.
Thanks bro.

From post 289, that column on the ground floor has the reinforcement exposed.
I think if you need to introduce a lintel on a column, you do not need to chiesel the whole column.
The column is a compression member and concrete is known to be strong in compression but weak in tension therefore,
chieseling through mean reducing the strength of the column.

Though in some cases we encounter such problem especially where you have beam reinforcement clustering the column head making it difficult
for concrete to pass through. But such should be filled as soon as the shutters are removed.

Well done Spyder!

I met one-on-one with one of your silent follower (living Magodo Phase 1, Lagos) and he asked a very funny question "Are those (Spyder's) price realistic?". My answer is "They are realistic in Enugu and not Lagos" especially not in area like Magodo.

Keep up the good work Bro. Lagos people dey enjoy you o!!!
