Gauge workout for outside plaster...


* cut the flat wood
* mix mortar
* fix the flat wood on the already placed mortar
* the gauge should be at the two ends
* use long plum to confirm the level
* transfer the level inbetween the ends


Example.....

love this bro.
how much for this project but I no too like the roofing, don't know it it's safe or not. nice job
Thanks bro, it's very safe if built with a good gauge of Nigerian roofing sheet. 2ndly, if constructed with concrete gutter and coated with coal tar will give you a great satisfaction.

Which one is Yoruba plaster sand?

Hajji M.
We are done with parapet and under-deck Plastering, ongoing now is wall plastering.

With Yoruba plaster sand only, you are likely going to have several cracks on the wall but a mixture of Yoruba and sharp sand in equal proportion will give you a perfect plaster morter that will not crack.



Don't mind me sir, that is the common name down here in the Eastern part of Nigeria, but what I mean is mud sand.

Thank you sir,Actually someone once told me since it 3plot of land that i have to use the 9inch block but seeing you use 6 inch on 5plot means i can also use 6inch.Do you have any special reason for using 6 inch or it normal to use 6inch?
No, no special reason. It's nice to use 6" inches block on fence wall if you have a strong block, it will cut cost and maximize space. But if the land is in a water logged Area is better to use 9" block, though on a raft foundation depending the bed or the layer of the area.
PropertiesRe: Fence My Plot @ Neke-uno Nike. by dubemcapital(op): 10:53pm On Nov 10, 2017
Hollasmall:
weldone sir,
i can see the block size is 6 if am using 9 can 4000 block be enough for 3 plot of land?
Sure, 6 and 9 inches block are of the same height and length but the width is the difference. However the height of the fence is a determinant factor.

abdulwastecx:
please come again with the question I didn't quite get it
I mean since your footing wall ( foundation wall) is not a concrete reinforced wall or slab, that is where you have the metal container, what measure did you take to prevent moisture or damp on the outer wall considering the hight of the foundation from the concrete blinding.

Good job Abdul, pls i want to ask if you observe any vapor or moisture reterder internally, since your footing wall is not a concrete reinforced wall especially before the metal container over there , considering the hight of the wall. Thanks

Parapet casting... Of course not with a very watery concrete for workability sake.


We consider an eletrical piping for a droplight under the porches


...wall plate steel rope for the roof reinforcement is very necessary
