gbadexy: What is a 12 x12 room in sq M: 19.5 sqm What is 11 x11 room in sq M: 18 sqm What is 10 x 10 room in sq M: 16.5 sqm
I based the height on 2.7 m. I understand your measurements are in feet. For painting a 12x12 room, you should consider 4 walls sir. 12+12+12+12 is 48ft all round. 48ft is 14.6m. Area of 4 walls is 14.6 x 2.7 = 39.4 sqm |

BiigTee: Engineers.. This still hasn't gotten to the worst part..
As the upper block work progressed.. The seasoned engineer on site noticed that the decking Rotech77 of Arbo contractor cast was sloping in various areas of the house and the slope was in some areas 10 inches.. That means.. If u put 9 coaches on one side of the building it equaled 10 coaches on the other side... I called rotech and told him about this and he vehemently disagreed that this could not be possible.. Even tho he was not on site when the decking was cast . He put a junior colleague to oversee the job and that junior colleague in turn put another junior colleague to supervise a job as critical as decking Kai... So unfortunate. Even good contractors are now cutting corners and cheating clients in this covid economy. Sorry sir. |

Please engineers what is the implications of this. I will like my building to have high height for the downstairs What do you intend to do with all that space above the head? Note that that is actually 5 coaches whn u add the beam thickness. |

n3xt: Would anyone here be happy to have a straight white line and use extra 50sqm of materials while trying to achieve symmetry or alignment?
I’m sure the bigger ogas in the house can afford to do that but definitely not my firiend who said he does not have mb to post pics yesternight. 
Unless the roofs are made to exact measurement of the shingles, I doubt there can be a perfect alignment of the patterns.
Please don’t take me too serious on this. I joke too much sometimes.
Except the owner of the project is happy to sacrifice extra 50sqm to achieve a perfect alignment of the sheets, I think the installer is not really at fault here. It’s more of a design error.
A perfect solution would have been to have special designs for the valley points, the hip and joints of the roof especially areas where the materials will be trimmed off.
Without this, a 100sqm roof will require about 120sqm of shingles to get perfect alignment. Anyone who buys d patterned tiles should be prepared for the extra 50 sqm (except he doesn't know what he bought  ). That's why we have mono coloured tiles. I always say- a roof is not just a cover! |

somehow: Having a roof over your head is actually not an investment because you are not going to be earning from such.
And yes, investing your fund into real estate is an investment and way better than banking that same fund. These your statements are somehow. 2nd paragraph contradicts the 1st. A roof over your head is an investment in real estate sir. |
