klenz77: Hello House, please I need urgent help here before making a decision, my builder is giving me a ridiculous estimate of reinforcement rods for my decking/slab. I would be glad if anybody can help to calculate the total rods required ( find drawing below). I equally need to ask if Y10 are used for slabs as my drawing is detailing this. thank you Bro I don't know anybody who even given you a quote based on what you posted here. Can you try post the structural plan having its dimensions (Lenght and with,etc,etc,etc). Be kind to also put up the estimate given to you as a check list. |

I saw the below mix from the link attached to that building with flat rope.
1 bag of cement, 3 headpans of sharp sand and 6 headpans of granite.
I will like to know what mix ratio is it? |

44chux: You cut across as a seasoned backbiter with a smell of false pretence about you.
Am anxiously awaiting feedback from verified clients you have worked for.
You can always tell much about a person from their comments over time I am not a NL engineer so don't expect to see feedback about my projects from my clients on this thread. I am still wondering how your kind and lot are able to maintain several monikeer doing the kind of thing they do. It is only those without eyes that cannot tell the difference. Kindly use your dictionary for the definition of a backbiter to know more. If I praise a man for a nice job and I spot an attitude else where I will respond. I still want to believe this thread is a place where ideas are exchanged for the benefit of all, disagree to agree on certain work patterns and move ahead for the better good. If you are an occupant of that limousine that knows all and smiles like the Joker whenever he makes a comment, you should be wary of others watching and observing you. Happy Weekend. |

jidesp: if Laterite filling is 200mm directly below the ground level, does that mean average depth of topsoil excavation to be 200mm as well or it would still be taken as the Average depth of 150mm. You ought to know your excavation depth first before you determine what volume to fill. |

KolaShangOne: I do.
Some of us go back to check on previously installed roofs especially if it's in the same catchment area.
Still checked one done 6years ago last weekend. Although I was just passing and decided to 'branch'. Nice one @ Oga KolaShangOne. There's nothing as good as seeing your past projects still standing firm. It tells good of the contractor. |

spyder880: At bolded, I usually watch out for the changes in every roof I install whenever I came to the area, and I track the changes and ask questions. There was this house I completed in Ebonyi state about 4 years back, we used AYACO roof tiles, not a popular brand but I still see it as fresh and black as we installed them. No changes.
I have gone back to look at some houses we used Wichtech on, no changes yet after 5 years. There was a Wichtech roof which we use as reference in Enugu, that was the first red stone coated tiles I had ever seen, over 10 years now and still red.
As for aluminium roofing, I watch out for the durability of the colours, but what has been my remarkable experience is the types that leak or develop faults more than the others. I have found out that Metcoppo are more likely to develop leaks than any other type of aluminium roof. We check and document these changes and use them as a reference to future decisions. Very very good of you Oga Sypder for looking out for your previous projects. For my clients who can afford and are using wichtech I am happy that it has and is serving it's purpose. |

namelesss: I really appreciate the input, I have decided to go with the hip roof... thanks Save for the convincing consciousness, did you really thought out in the first instance to actually carry out a flat roof on your building? Can you post your structure design here for all to see? Please permit my curiosity. |

EgunMogaji: Personally, and knowing what I know now, I would advise to go for a hip roof.
I have two flat roof structures on my site now that will be replaced by hip roof in the future when the materials have expired.
The work of a roof is to keep elements out of the house, and both types will do that. For me, the one to select is the one that will make the owner feel proud architecturally as you pull up after a hard day at work.
Good luck. Going by the bold, please how long does it take the materials to become expired? |

jabolo: I've just taken up this issue with stone coated roof tiles that come with patchwork colors in another thread https://www.nairaland.com/3364135/roofing-sheets-cost-various-types/9#59008454
I wanted to ask a wider audience if any one has any experience with longevity of the colors. Close-up, it seems to me they just applied paint by brush - and they're claiming 50 year warranty.
Any experience?
Thanks . Fallacy of Generalisation. Except the manufacturer and direct distributor no one can give you a near clear response. I do not think there's any builder on NL or else where who have gone back to check on an installed roofing sheet of a client after years of handing over the property keys. Nonetheless in as much as there might be fakes in the market be sure to buy from reputable companies who will sign a warranty/guaranty same as it was imported from the manufacturer. To the best of my knowledge such roof tiles coming from Belgium, Netherlands, Korea meet up their word. |

Emmafly: dear house, thanks for your comments. the oven is still in use I will surely update pics.
two to three days for longer shelve life. when the fish is properly degilled and the oven door is constructed properly to reduce oxygen PAH will be zero. you can use both depending on the construction. you can also use electric stove. it all depends on your preference but I use strictly charcoal and it comes out very perfect and tasty. ovens don't collect fish oil. its a fable that ovens collect fish oil. a properly degilled fish will have no oil except at the tail which is during drying. the big secret about fish oil is that you get it from the degilled remnants of your fish. put the remnants in a big bowl filled with water. the white solid fat layer of the fish remnants will float up. take them, rinse properly, sieve out the water and put the solid fat in a pot. cook until it melts very well but not burnt. take out the shell then that's the oil. I do not encourage farmers to sell it cos it can be used for normal cooking in the home. try it. do u know fifty kg of fish will give you above one litre of fish oil. do you know fish remnants are cooked and fed back to fishes. there fore you are the biggest gainer when you dry your fish cos you throwaway nothing. thanks . Do you salt your fish before drying? You are doing wonderful with the insights. Every practising agro-entrepreneur should know that there is no waste in the business. |

Emmafly: thanks. I will prepare my write up and get back to the house.
though the necessary materials are 1 space. may be at the backyard of your house or farm but must be close to water supply for washing the fish 2. iron . a sound welder will handle this aspect. 3. sand and cement. - a good bricklayer will do this. that's all you need.
1 you need to carve out a 2.5ft by 2.5ft space and tell your brick layer to build a single wardrobe style cubi of about 7 to 8 blocks high. the blocks when setting should be filled internally with filling so that heat can be retained for a longer time. 2. tell your welder to come take measurement of the top to construct an iron plate with a chimney like outlet for excess air to pass out for casting the decking. 3. then tell your bricklayer to cast the decking lightly with the iron plate serving as the base. 4. let the welder take good inner measurement and construct a standing tray hanger of about 10 layers. 5 also let him prepare the trays using good iron wire mesh. 6 let him also take a look and prepare a standard checkers plated door or any door of good quality and ensure that it can tightly close without letting out air unnecessarily. 7 tell your bricklayer to fix the door when it is ready.. 8 let your bricklayer plaster all the inner and outer surroundings of the oven 9 get s standard coal pot.. 10. oven is ready . pictures will follow soon but you can ask questions. . Very very appreciative of your write ups. Will be expecting the pictures also. What's the thickness of the decking casting in inches? Thanks. |
