You first need an architectural drawing. Most especially floor plan & site plan. Because of your tight budget send me your email, let me forward the drawings to you for foc.

You will need the help of a sincere professional to guide you because your is too skinny for it.

Very correct. I wanted to ask the difference between a Welder and an Iron bender. My Structural Engineer goofed big time when I was building as I wasn't around when the building started up to decking level.

It was when we were about to do the decking that I called a seasoned iron bender, with a lot of construction experiences under his belt, to do the iron works for me. On getting to my site, because of some structural defects he saw, he advised places that we needed to put hidden beams, open beams and other reinforcement amendments to support the integrity of the building in certain places of the decking that were not in the structural plan as the building is a lengthy one.

My "COREN" registered structural Engineer agreed with him completely. That was how the building was saved. Since then, I had relied on the iron bender for certain things pertaining to the building.

I went to check reinforcement arrangement of a site in January. I was having this believe that the iron bender will not get it right because of the span of the cantilevers and some spaces in the interior. When i got there and assessed the work done, the iron bender was 90% correct with the slab & reinforcement layout. The omissions was where he used 12mm local rod and it was due to the instruction of the client when they have exhausted tmt.

Need advise from the gurus in the house.

Will there be a structural concern if the design of the rooms/flats on the first floor in a story building is different from the ones on the ground floor. In the current design, I have 1no 2bed, 2no 1bed and a self contain. I intend to eliminate the external staircase that is supposed to lead to the 2bed on the first floor so all the tenants living on the first floor access their flats using the in-door staircase. Plan to have a balcony extension to provide access for the 2bed & 1bed flat.

I have also attached the floor plan for assessment.

Ground floor has been completed and original design for both floors are same.

A good architect should have made it an inside staircase except where the Client said otherwise. Changing the position of staircase will cause you to redesign.

Lesson learnt

Well, you said it right. What kill my mood was restrain in helping. So, even if it was a matter of life & death to him or any artisan, is now a lesson never to render the help. He has used his mischief to refrain others or any one who might be in dire need of help.

Wonders shall never end.
Let me drop this one here that had emotional turn on me.
There is/was this plumber that the Client brought to site. He had been working for him way back before i met the Client. So, after working for more than two weeks, he requested me to help him with 90% of his balance so as to clear landlord matter at home. One thing i always do is having a good relationship with people i met especially lower cadre irrespective of my class.
I told him that wasnt a problem if only he will finish the work and do it well. I had to help him since he stays in the vicinity of my client and because my client had referred him several times, so i resolved to helping him and even top it up self.

The following day that i went to site, he began to tell me he need to go home that is long he saw his family. From a good heart, i told him to wait till weekend. That he will go by weekend and must return on monday morning.
When this guy left on that weekend, that was just the end of seeing him on site. He had only laid external pipes, he had not fix any fitting inside ( an apartment of 8 toilets, 4 kitchens). It was the Client that called me to ask after because he saw him gyrating on bike.
When i called him, he began to say his neighbour was hospitalised, all sorts of nonsense. I had to call another plumber who billed me afresh when the Client was on me. My Client didnt even mind checking him at home whereas i offered to help because he was a boy to him.

Now, both of them have reconciled but myself and my Client are yet to come to term.

If this is not too late, the dream means widowhood as your girl has rightly interpret it. I will advise both of you engage in spiritual exercise to clear and negate the evil scenes. Involve yourself in serious spiritual exercises, fasting, praying etc until you get a clear and peace giving revelation from God before any preparation.
