I am not a construction engineer so i will be speaking from my personal experiences on site. It is usually caused by what is referred to as "dead weight." This usually occurs ( i am relying on the cracks as described by you) when the substructured esp the walls are forced to carry more load that their design. I presume u didn't engage a structural engineer in your building process cos itz one of the things they help prevent.
One of the ways to control this ( though may be relatively expensive) would be to introduced "pillar" in strategic places within the walls of the stucture which would serve as "load carriers."
Once done u can then patch the cracks. Kindly seek further options.

Cheers.

I think you're wrong sir, those cracks on the wall is as a result of settlement in the soil or an uneven settlement. And poor soil type, non compacted soil or earth, and refusal to have a German floor laid are few reasons for what you're seeing

illumiaconcept:
Good morning, first of all this cracks were caused by differential settlement (uneven settlement) of various soil strata underneath the building....the reason why the tear is vertical from top to bottom is not only because of the differential settlement but because this building doesnt have a "chained" up lintel and no dpc (german floor)...to cut the long story short, it is correctable either by underpinning that portion of the building or the entire exterior wall off the building which should carried out by an expert and its more expensive but the ideal thing to do OR you crack the walls at 500mm spacing (interval)and introduce a 1.5m long U bent 16mm reinforcement horizontally in each from top to bottom, before covering it up with mortar...this method is cheaper and requires a bit of technicality...either ways, its professionally adviced to do the correction with an expert and at the same time always follow building standards when constructing instead of entrusting your property in the hands of artisans (advanced bricklayer/quacks)...

You just spoke my mind. Pls every nairalandite should consult construction expert when you wish to build your house. Do not look at the professional fee as a waste, cos it is not one. You will be glad you do. You can contact me for your boq preparation, cos I am a quantity surveyor with a seal

Foxyn:
the sign is clear.

this means that the witches are trying to destroy your house spiritually though it's happening physically for you to see.


now here's what you need to do, buy insects powder, pour inside the lines and cement it.

by 12:00am, you wake up and pray on it. then finalize the prayer by pouring an olive oil on where you cemented it

count yourself a free man

go and sin no more

this is so funny...can't stop laughing
