Most of my failed delivery are with time base(delay), we hv no record of cheating or ripping off client (s) of their money or deliver 10tons for 15tons, 15 for 20tons, or 20+ for 30tons. like what other supplier will do.

Compromise is not in our mode of operation

we taking modalities to curb it.

Good day friends, here is a 3 bedroom flat and 2 room and parlour self contained foundation as shown in the picture.
Filling is on going presently, next after that is the setting of the blocks to the final level.
My enquires are;
How many blocks will it required?
How many bag of cement and cost of sand (mind you, there will be 15 pillars)?
Can it later be floored after block setting, mind you, am using 9 inches block all through?
Thanks in anticipation.
Pls consult an engineer or An expert in BoQ.

Hey guys, I have a house that’s currently under construction. It is past decking level, but we started to notice some holes on the German floor. What could be the cause of these concrete collapse? Is it an indication of foundation problem? How can it be corrected.
Sir, you hv already done rhe block setting b4 the flooring? Or perhaps did not put enough water in the back filling. No harm if its a bungalow just break the entire surface and recast. Frm pic no trace of steel bar in the dpc... So many questions to ask. If you have negotiated to the bream engineer (elebi(hungry) engineer) will cut corners

I can not imagine a supplier of building materials, that do not know "weight bill", i do not think he knows the description of materials he sells to customer.

Well well , you cant cheat me .I get things done on my own . A 6tyres truck cant push more than 10tons that is if you even see a sincere person . 10tryes push up to 20tons only if it is scaled at the quarry site. Nigerians needs to be sanitized with spiritual hypo
When you know this why ranting, if you don't know, my major failed delivery was due to availability of 15ton or 30tons truck. Majority truck & truck owner dont like 30tons haulage, this made me go for a complete 15tons truck that can serve me both ways.

For your information only me use Mercedes Benz truck in Abeokuta with 6tyres my bucket is big enough to lift 16tons+

PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Chekitaut: 11:34pm On Jan 26, 2020
People who cheat have conscience. As your conscience speak to you because u do not know weight bill.

Say No to 10tons for 15tons

All issue u draw out is not related to your 10tons display for 15tons.
