Thank you Bixton,no he is not doing it again because we wount be able to get 4 rooms,the land is in megamound estate and they have a lot of crazy rules,couple with the irregular shape of the land at the rear ,its difficult moving the design around so he said,i"m a novice when it comes to Architectural design

It appears you have a close relationship with the architect.
He can better his designs.
I can't imagine running a 4 bedroom apartment and no lobby/passage to shed off even if its just one room from direct eye sight.

Kai
with the Strength of your Grammar, na only Professionals go understand wetin you me and if i be professional, I guess i won't be asking such questions.


It might help if you could lists anything, maybe i would understand better.

Thanks

It all depends on the type of sharp sand in your area.
For my clients who incorporated moulding of blocks as part of my work in the construction work I do;
For a particular type of sand
9"........25/32 (foundation/upper level)
6".........30/40 (same)

When I'm mixing 2 different types of sand.
9".........30/35
6".........35/45.

boyestic:
Architects in the house,pls take a look and drop a comment

The layout is okay.
Did you make changes to the design plan you posted previously for criticising?

What is the recommended number of Blocks per bag ?

Since we would be Molding, we want it very strong. I have heard and read lots of mixed figures such as 35-Blocks, 40-Blocks and some even say 50-Blocks per Bag.

We might be low on Funds BUT that doesn't mean we are willing to Compromise on Quality.


Also what's the recommended way of paying Bricklayers and Block Molders - is it per block (with regards to bricklayer) or per bag (with regards to block Molder) ?

Location is Atan Ota, in Ogun state

Abeg experienced Heads should stone me a Response quick quick.

thanks

It all boils down to the properties of the aggregate materials used to achieve that number per bag and still maintain the desirable strength of the block.

Every number you hear is correct and achievable given that the moulder understands the job to be done.
Be it 6" or 9", ensure that the blocks moulded for foundation(sub structure) is less in quantity to that used for super structure per bag.

$2.3 billion, wey some Nigerian politicians and civil servants go share among each other

By the time the people of Morocco start traveling in that train, they will pray for their King, politicians and country.
I do feel like crying whenever I pass through itokin road, when am traveling from ikorodu to ijebu Igbo, the road is just so dam terrible and I will start cursing the Federal government, Lagos state government and the Ogun state government

Countries that are functioning well don't know how lucky they are.

the 6 geopolitical regions should have trains operating in them, but with the sort of greedy useless politicians we have, it's not gonna be possible.

Just imagine a very rich state like Lagos, that has been constructing a light rail project for more than 10 years, I wish there is an alternative to APC in Lagos state.

In Nigeria those who will share the money amongst selves will pray for one another and their respective friends, relatives and well wishes will do same.

WaffenSS:
If you consider what atiku said as complex, then I wonder who's really lifeless between you and PMB

I can see lots of people gambling with the Nigerian economy claiming they know something.

ebukamen:
You understand principles of economics but you don't economic analysis. you just failed your analysis. Go and study Nigerian economy and you will see that Atiku is right.

Good evening

You have succeeded in saying nothing.
If you truly understand what Atiku intends doing from the post can you explain in lay man terms?

This has always being the trend and voice from the Igbos.
We should be expecting comments from the agitators/ex-militants from the Niger Delta region on their own piece.

vincentjk:
At least he did what others didn't do

What exactly did he do?

vincentjk:
Very nice developement, Almakura is one of the best governors in the history of nigeria. he may not have paid workers due to how bad the government is but he has A1 in building roads, schools, hospitals etc.... just name it. he she'd taught buhari his friend all these not just paying him visits when he was chilling in london... Happy birthday to you sir

You are very serious indeed.
Nice of him to spend his his birthday with the children. But please instead of going to their school, he is supposed to hold a grand reception in the governor's banquet hall for them.
More so your assertion about him being one of the best governors is very far from the truth.
There's absolutely nothing in Nassarawa State for anyone to rejoice about.
Just like every other governor before him, the state is not progressing.

FADEO:
I really love to give feed back to the house on the progress of the job and construction.
In the last 16days. This was what was achieved . From foundation to lintel level. The client has decided to pause till January 2019. Also if it permited by Hajji. I will share the cost of foundation as spent. But in total the stage the house has gotten to has consumed a little above 5M.

Very nice brotherly.
Good output.
Are you saying all works done from excavation till present pix, the cost is around the amount as posted?

Donald95:
I learnt in history class back then in Primary school that Nnamdi Azikiwe was a Ceremonial President.

Today, We see that happening B4 our eyes between Yoruba (ceremonial VP) and same Hausa/Fulani Cabals.

It's a pity That the ethnic groups that claims to be intellectually sophisticated always fall victim to the intelligence of a group they believe to be illiterates.

Indeed.
But did your history teacher not tell you what activities played out before Nnamdi Azikiwe was made the President even when there was a Prime Minister.


It appears your history classes then was from someone who did not witness the civil war and he was pained about so many things.

themanderon:
Why not downsize the amount of money spent on yourselves and your cronies and see if you will not be able to pay even beyond the said amount?
Nigerian leaders are the most wicked and the vilest kind of leaders we have in the whole wide world.
The only reason they complain is that they will have fewer cash to stuff in their babanriga just like the Malam up north.

They are not creative with respect to generating revenues except running multiple taxation on the populace.

Their creative ideas is to steal monies.

Magalan:
Saraki sympathises while releasing list of Nigerians killed between Jan & April 19 2018...

https://politicsngr.com/igp-saga-saraki-releases-list-killings-nigeria-2018-full-list/

Why dont the APC open up the alleged cases since they have the Attorney general now rather than accusing people of an alleged crime.

In as much as we regret the deaths of anybody.
Can you be so kind to attach specific names atond titles if possible of those killed so we get a close to accurate figure.

Do you know that because of political reasons, the actual number of persons who died during the Nigerian Civil war is yet to be substantiated by both sides and even the international community.

“Principals are not even involved in the implementation and therefore we don’t even have a say.

The bold is the only problem with the principal just like our senators who are complaining.

A principal who is an administrative staff, what exactly will be your contribution to the feeding programme?

krendo:
Sack workers who are not true civil servants

Cut down the governors convoy to maximum 3 cars

Cut down the governors staff to essential staff only

Shut down the governors guest houses

The Governor should stop chattering planes and fly economy and only make essential travels to Abuja and Lagos

Stop the nonsense party in government house

If you do this all states can afford 50k minimum wage for all civil servants comfortably

How do you go about the bold?

captainamiedi1:
“So, as Nigerians, we should look at the issues seriously. While other people are saying governors are flying jets and living in affluence, that one is not luxury but compulsory.
from what the man said i think looting is compulsory. we are doom.

Nobody is stopping them from entering jets.
Governors are public servants and all public servants are supposed to make use of public facilities.
If you decide to go private then you ought to pay from your private purse and not the state's purse.

Also what benefits has their compulsory jet flying brought to their respective states?

Humblega:
Dey are just gathering excuses not to do it right.

If ds useless pple are forced to agree with 30k minimum wages

* Some states like Lagos, Rivers, Anambra, Kano....might be paying but will not recruit again for some years to come

* Some states like Ogun, Enugu, Kaduna,oyo.....might be paying main salary, refuses to pay allowances and deductions and not recruit again

While

** some states like Osun, Benue, Kogi will be paying 1 out of every 6 months


We av problems at every sectors and levels but seems minimum wages payment is more to states level dan federal government

But why not reduces funding for legislative salary, and presidency to fund more workers dat are d one working for it in d first place

They can recruit and still pay.
Every government can recruit a tangible number every year.
It's all about setting priorities in the right order and form.

Any governor who cannot pay #30,000 is not fit to be elected or re-elected.
Make me governor in all the states who claim they can't pay that amount and I'll show you how its done.

Daboomb:
Please dont encourage our Architects to drink so much Beer! Wetin, a whole Two CRATES?
The last time my Architect got drunk, his work was so brilliant l concluded only Aliens from Mars could have done it..... Four Block of 3-bed Flats and not s single Toilet included in the drawing!

You're lucky its just toilet not included.
How about the person who built a one storey building without a staircase.........

Also speaking, wife of former president of Nigeria, Prof Uche Azikwe said that there should be written agreement


If she could tell her people to request for such as a binding document then it tells so many tales about Atiku as an individual.
OBJ will be shaking his head.

He might be sending a message of some what.
The mere fact that he gained entrance into the court premises and standing face to face with the judge then it means something.

Is there anyone selling tiles in PHC here?

OkaNaUbe:
The more you look, this less you see. Don't fall for this gimmick.

If they were serious, they would have sped up work on that bridge so that we can believe we are not 5%ters, as Tribalist-In-Chief said it.

Enugu-Onitsha federal road is bad and some sections is constructed by Enugu State government (prove me wrong with facts). Also Ihiala-Orlu road, PH-Enugu road, Onitsha-Awka road (though, taking donkey years to complete) is bad, Owerri-PH (IMO State section) are all bad.

Apart from Onitsha-Owerri Federal road constructed during Obasanjo's administration and few others, most Federal roads in the South East are bad.

Nice one with the bold.
Are you also saying the administration after OBJ did not do anything?

alsudan:
Diplomatic immunity is what allows Buhari into the US. That man has been on the terrorist watch list for close to 30 years. The dullards extreme ideologies are well documented globally.

Really....
How often did you hear President Mugabe going to the USA?
So he does not have diplomatic immunity?

This same Nigerians have been insulting PMB about his accent and english since 2014

And not that majority of them doing the insults even have a third of what PMB owns.
Useless hypocrites that will not put their brains to better use.

PDP are claiming its a fake document being circulated by the APC.
That's how we heard from them that they have nothing against the former finance minister when she refused bending to their excesses and afterwards they delivered their document, knowing fully aware of it from the beginning.
And you want Nigerians to actually take such persons serious?

Are these not the same persons who sponsored PMB to the 2015 elections and he won.
I just pity Nigerians.
OBJ will really laff and take a swipe at us at the appropriate time.

boyestic:
please help me critisize the floor plan,the architect is a nairalander and he will be reading also,thank you.

I know the architect can still do more except probably you're trying to minimise block usage.
I'll say you can alternate the guest room with kitchen. Trying creating the guest room toilet/bathroom to serve as visitor's toilet as well.
Your rooms on the upper floor are completely exposed.

namio10:
What is Zik Mausoleum to an average Anambranian as Nigeria's government continued to fight the civil war against the east?

We are looking for Zik Cure Drug. Zik was so short sighted that he never knew that one Nigeria would never work.

Zik is a blessing only to Arewa northern Nigeria.

It's your like who refused listening to Zik and went ahead to secede leading to a civil war and caused alot of persons to die for your selfish reasons.
Guess you're now far sighted to see the outcome.

I just dey laugh at Timi Frank.
Well after the expiration of the 7 days we'll be watching what next you'll to do?
Common ordinary law and constitution you don't know how to interpret.
Hope you're educated enough to know how to go about court proceedings and not this social media hassle you're doing.

People will start joining the band wagon of non reasoning. Too many educated illiterates.

Truth be told, except the politicians are doling out cash to these artiste, how many of them even have the pvc, talk less of actually voting on the election day?
Or are we joining Davido and his uncle?

We keep hearing Atiku searched at the airport still I'm yet to see any pix whatsoever of it?

The only pix I've seen is that of him alighting the stairs of the plane.
