don't mind that guy, even DPC can't cause immediate collapse during construction.DPC only prevent dampness through wall, and DPM prevent through slab.

My position too

PurplePatch:
Educative, incisive and interesting. Kudos!

Meanwhile you need not be told OP is a strong football fan. By their posts you shall know them.

Very true
I confirmed that when he talked about Juventus, not knowing Juventus is not a city but a football club in the city of Turin.

Ndipe:
Chicgo is not the capital of Illinois.

Manhattan isnt capital of New York

Chicago I know is a state in the US

Nice response
Don't mind all these people claiming well to do on this platform whereas in real life, 3 square meal comes to them as a testimony.
Which reasonable and right thinking human will ask the difference between Tiny light Camry(or indeed any other camry car models) and Okada.

BESTEAGLE:
mismanagement and silly mistakes from the contractor is to blame. not mixing the concrete very well and trying to use 12mm in place of 16mm. I no that some area @ Port...don't need upstairs and the contractor needs to check very well on the damp proof course (PDÇ). he should've Chained the foundation very well...

DPC you mean?

You're dead wrong, Efe is either arrogant or uncouth.

He's very humble and not self regarding like most celebs. Stop hating on him for no justifiable reason.

You are right dear

Hope uzodinma is from orlu local government while rochas is from ideato south local govt, op chucking mouth for what you nothing about

Rochas is from Ogboko in Ideato South LGA
Hope is from Omuma in Oru East LGA
both are from Imo west (Orlu) senatorial zone
both of course are from Imo state
and finally both are multi millionaires and philantropists having made their money outside politics long before they held any politacal office.

1. The church isn't small. If you're an architect, you should know. (No offense meant)

2. Anthropometrically, 1-human is roughly 1sqm.

3. 3,275sqm is a huge proposed built space.

4. Pile or pier foundation is the most expensive type of foundations.

5. Due to the proposed height, at least, 40N/mm slump strength needed.

6. Aesthetically, the concept is cool. Not just Catholic inspired but Jesus's lifestyle inspired.

6a. The 1st crest region explains the birth of Jesus. His rise with his disciples. Miracles...

6b. The middle rim explains the persecution of Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Being crucified. Dead. Buried.

6c. The pinnacle crest. Meaning his resurrection and ascension to Heaven. The concept is cool. Location of the cross is cool but would have imagined a replica image of praying Jesus or interceding Jesus, seated on the Throne. Perhaps in synthetic gypsum, illuminate cast, but huge, placed on the final crest of the atrium.

It's a lovely design metamorphosis.

Noted
i quite agree with you

Is This The Most Beautiful Church Building In Nigeria?

CHURCH OF THE TRANSFIGURATION LEKKI LAGOS, NIGERIA

Even though the design proposal may seem unconventional to the untrained eye, it is actually based on traditional principles of Catholic Church design: The main congregation Hall features a Latin cross above the Organ and altar; The hall has a nave and two aisles at each side which are all coincident with the main axis of the Church; we have placed a Latin Cross on the highest point of the Church’s structure, which will become an icon for the city of Lekki and Lagos as a whole.

The project consists of an organic skin which, in one single gesture, becomes the roof and external walls of the Church, enveloping and protecting the Congregation within. The main access is placed in the narrowest and lowest part of the building and leads into a spectacular entrance foyer, from which the visitor has views and clear access to both floors of the Church. The main staircase in the entrance foyer divides the Church into two halves which are visually linked by the large atrium that traverses the building. The funnel effect within the entrance foyer moreover reinforces the huge and spectacular scale of the main Congregation Hall and the Chapel of Perpetual Adoration to either side.

The architectural concept and structural form are integral, with a series of arches of varying heights producing the sculptural form of the building as a whole. Arches are one of the oldest and most efficient forms of structure, utilizing the full height of the building to provide stiffness resulting in a relatively slender structure. Fabricated steel arches are positioned at 4m centres along the length of the building, with cold‐formed steel purlins spanning between the arches supporting the roof finishes and ceiling within. These arches are supported on each side of the building by a series of piled foundations taking vertical loads into the ground beneath. The horizontal thrust which results from the arching action is resisted by a reinforced concrete ground slab which ties the two bases of the arch together.

The main spaces for prayer have been designed to be peaceful, awe inspiring, and full of joy whilst also allowing the worshippers full and uninterrupted views of the Altar. The impressive glazed facades on both the East and western axis of the Church provide natural lighting and emphasize the height and scale of both areas of worship. The interior of the Church is very simple, pure and full of spirituality. The outside is elegant, timeless and will stand as a true Icon for the Catholic community of Lagos and Nigeria as a whole.

Client: Catholic Church of the Transfiguration
Location: Victoria Garden City, Lekki, Lagos, Nigeria
Designer: DOS Architects Ltd
Floor area ‐ sq metres 3,275sqm (Gross internal Area).
2000 seating capacity.
2 Floors
Budget ‐ $14,000,000

So my question remains, with all these specifications and huge budget for this relatively small structure, can we now say that aesthetically, this is the most beautiful church auditorium in the country.

With due respect, I sincerely do think the pictures below should make the list.

I rember using the old bridge for the first time, i have never been that scared in my life. Like you said, [b]the bridge was first situated in front of the UBTH gate. It was later moved closer to the Uniben maingate [/b]before it was destroyed when the government decided to expand the express road.

Was it a mobile bridge?

Have you ever heard of Diplomatic relations?

Not when your house is not in order.
Nigeria is in shamble right now, we seldom have enough to pay workers' salaries.
IDPs here and there
yet you are here talking about diplomatic relations.

cenaman:
Atiku is very useless man, is the money buhari donate to guinea up the amount he share during the PDP primary election in portharcourt?

Quite unreasonable.
the last time i checked, Atiku is not a political office holder.
even if he shared 10 trillion naira during the primaries, its only coming from his personal coffers.
Buhari kept donating our commonwealth.
see the difference
