There are miracles happening everyday but some of these miracles we read about are exaggerated to validate their pastors and promote the church.

Christian school.

That's the fact.

Nairobi33:
Government owned school being funded by majority Muslim taxpayers money. Get the fact right!
EducationRe: Hijab: Kwara Shuts Baptist High School Over Crisis by Aforxzy(f):
This is clearly a Christian mission school why do you enroll your children in such school when you know you won't abide by their dress code.

You want quality and affordable education but none of your Islamic schools is good enough for you to enroll your kids. Now you are being rebellious.

Use the beret if you want to cover your head but no to hijab in a Christian school. Can the Muslims allow the Christians in their school to use their rosary or hymn books.

What a religion of peace!

This is unfair to the husband if true. The wife should be ready to pay the bills for now.
PropertiesRe: Construction of Block of Flats, Mixed development and more by Aforxzy(op):
I won't say good or bad cos most people just provide rebars without any structural design.

But the size and spacing of the rebars (iron rods) are determined from structural calculations based on the loading on the building.

From the calculated area of steel the structural engineer can recommend 12mm /16mm or any other diameter depending on his/ her choice of rebars at a particular spacing that will sufficiently support the load.

So it's the area of steel gotten ,that determines the size and spacing of the steel. If the area is such that 12mm is okay for the column bases then use 12mm and if 16mm is okay for the columns then it's good as well...

Hatesin:
Ok.
Thanks for the clarification.

Coming to the rods, I have seen some people use 12mm for the bases and 16mm for the pillars.

How good is that?
PropertiesRe: Construction of Block of Flats, Mixed development and more by Aforxzy(op): 6:32pm On Feb 03, 2022
Yes. You will still achieve the same result.

Hatesin:
So what you are saying is that it's not totally out of place to stand the columns first before proceeding with the strips blinding?
PropertiesRe: Construction of Block of Flats, Mixed development and more by Aforxzy(op): 5:10pm On Feb 03, 2022
Would you prefer we blinded everywhere at the same time??

Blinding is to correct the uneveness of the excavated trench and also to provide cover for the rebars.

In this case we blinded the column bases first because the wall strips do not have any rebars on them and to prevent the iron bender walking over them during placement of the rebars.


Hatesin:
Is it really a good practice to blind only the colum bases, stand the starter pillars before actually blinding the rest of the trenches as you did here?

Is there any work that involves hitting, breaking or vibration on your build? The crack could be as a result of these or more...

Even though the picture is not extensive enough, it doesn't look like a structural issue..
Let your mason break open the affected areas and redress them.

henrymor:
Thanks for your response. I have similar cracks like this in other parts of the house. Please what do I do?

This is sad. The rate at which young boys and girls are being enticed and entangled by money is alarming and disturbing. Their quest for materialism have gone board

They now openly declared their intentions to make quick money and go any and every extent to get it done.

Parents, teachers, community and society should be blame for glorifying money over values.

There's problem oo.

The man wanted to sleep with his ex-wife before helping her. He thought he was being smart. Now he has been exterminated in the process.

If only he had helped her from afar maybe he would still be alive

Elijah contacted her and promised to give her money to repay part of the loan. He died after they had sex.

You should be able to step up into your apartment incase of run-off or heavy down pour. So the surrounding level should be lower than that of the building.

The prices of things in the market keep soaring everyday that its becoming difficult to keep track.
If you buy an item today be sure to go with extra cash when next you want to buy it.

The government isn't bothered because they are more concerned about 2023 election.
Too bad
PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aforxzy(f): 11:29am On Jan 27, 2022
Chiselling the slab and introducing a beam on the wall might not solve this problem. Get a second opinion by inviting an external structural engineer to look at the building.



zamirikpo:
Hello guys.....thank God I found this thread.

I have a duplex under construction, we are at the roofing stage now, but my worry is I noticed the decking in two room vibrate if u jump on it. I first noticed it when a helper dropped a bucket of sand on the floor of the deck while I was standing on it. The way I felt a pulse under my feet I didnt like it. Few days later I noticed cracks under the deck......

I called the engineers attention and he said it was poor concrete mixture and that the guyz that poured d decking didn't get to the right level.

His solution is to chisel off the middle of d decking in d room about 9inches and then introduce an external beam.

Meaning we will crack open the middle of the room abt 9inches wide, wall to wall and then introduce a beam under.

What do the experts here thing. I'm really worried bcs cracking a decking isnt soo good, would it not affect the whole building.
PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aforxzy(f): 11:14am On Jan 27, 2022
It's unsual for ceiling fan to cause cracks on a reinforced slab.
You need to carryout a comprehensive check on the slab especially since you intend to put an additional load on it.

Get a structural engineer to examine and conduct integrity test on the slab. This will ascertain the strength of the concrete..




BigFrog:
My shop decking is cracking as a result of the ceiling fun hanging rod they put up there. It's not firm. It wobles with the ceiling fan and I now notice cracking allover it decking.

Another thing is I plan to uninstall the ceiling fan. The decking is a new deck ans there is plan to put another shop on top. I was worried if all this will affect the structure and it looks like the deck is not strong.

I need advice from experience personal from this house to advise.

HealthRe: Lady Expecting A Girl Shares Touching Video After Losing Her Pregnancy by Aforxzy(f): 7:37pm On Jan 25, 2022
Pregnancy is a dicey situation for most women.. Some go thru it without any loss or complications while others develop complications , loose the baby or even die in the process.

It's not easy losing a pregnancy, the bond the expectations and the joy being cut short..

We need to be more prayerful and discrete when pregnant not everyone is happy and not everyone wish you well.

Sorry about your loss.
