Yeah, not all at once

Approach appearance

The block pillars formation

Looking differently now

The process

Works

While leveling was on, i was considering a different design of concrete facia ( parapet) given that the architect has done his best but i normally redesign at the site once am happy at work, creative inspiration will flow freely

So, this is the drawing but i will give the house a different parapet arrangement for touch up sake and better appearance

Follow up, update on the construction

Obinnau:
what is the update on this project?

Sofar, we have concluded with the 2nd deck but would not update until during final finishings

What's the structural and theoretical function of Deck beam installation.

Firstly,

Inorder to come close in understanding with some of us who are not professionals in this field, sometimes i use a very common or individual word more like a layman's terms provided everyone understands my explanation and analysis.


In this context;

Deck or decking = Concrete Slab

Beam = Beam

Put together = Deck beam

But what i mean here is the beam installation at the deck reinforcement level. ( in a layman's term)

Nevertheless, in a professional terms, what we ment here is a Monolithic slab and beam system ( MSB)

Monolithic Slab and Beam (MSB) : are a structural elements that are cast integrally, forming a continuous and interconnected system. Beams are used to support the slab in it reinforcement and by so distribute loads to the columns or walls below. By casting the beams and slab together, the system becomes more rigid and efficient in transferring loads.

However, the monolithic construction method offers several advantages, including:

Improved structural integrity : The integration of slabs and beams creates a more robust and stable structure.

Reduced construction time : Casting the slabs and beams together can streamline the construction process.

Cost-effectiveness : Monolithic construction can be more economical compared to other structural systems.

Enhanced load distribution : the Beams help distribute loads evenly across the structure, reducing stress concentrations.

Now, to your question,

The monolithic slab and beam (MSB) system serves several structural and theoretical functions in building construction:

Structural Functions :

1. Load transfer : The MSB system transfers loads from the building to the foundation or soil.

2. Flexure : The MSB system resists bending and flexural stresses.

3. Shear resistance : The system resists shear forces and prevents cracking.

4. Torsion resistance : The MSB system resists twisting forces.


Theoretical Functions :

1. Load distribution : The system distributes loads evenly, reducing stress concentrations.

2.Structural integrity : The MSB system provides a continuous, unified structure.

3 Compression and tension : The MSB system resists compressive and tensile stresses.

4. Redundancy : The MSB system provides redundant load paths, enhancing structural reliability.

5. Stability : The system ensures stability and resistance to settlement or movement.

6. Structural integrity : The MSB system provides a continuous, unified structure.

Monolithic slab and beam system creates a strong, efficient, and robust structural solution for building construction.

Please bear with me, the response came late, i was a bit tight.

Overview

* The compressive strength of the concrete protective measures

* Deck beam installation

* Panel reinforcement

* Zero vibration measures

*leveling off the blocks to the head roof

* deck formation

* panel reinforcement

* block hole closure

*Block formation
*The layout are clearly defined
* lintel boarding and cast work on going

*Foundation walling
*Foundation reinforcement
*Back filling
* filled soil settlement
* Compaction

I went for a treatment of an accident that occurred in Abriba, Abia State and before i could visit the site these (five)
5 processes have already been completed and we are headed to DPM & OSC

Block work will be eminent

Honestly, we have gone pass this stage but i will run a catch-up update.

Most quarry don’t sell 30 tonne. Max, they sell 25 but a lot buyers don’t know.

Thats how they scaaam or that’s how they see profit 😁.

That’s why it’s good to always go there and find out from quarry sellers to know how they sell and make sure you monitor what you are buying.
I can’t imagine loosing like 80k per trip to truck owner/project handler after the truck owner/project handler has collected money for logistics.

Honestly speaking o, the lost is usually massive, when you trust chippings supplying in the hands of this suppliers.

Even the material estimate, BEME (Bill of Engineering Measurement and Evaluation) that is estimated to handle the project will be affected because the will be a drastic shortage from the prepared BEME.

Is always better you go and buy it yourself or loss happily
