Phones / Re: What A Mind-blowing TV-C News™ Interview! by General2COAS(m): 11:02am On Aug 12, 2023 |
Some of the things said are true while the others can't work with reality because it's seen from the black/African perspective due to inadequate exposure. Education is a basic need just as other developed countries are capitalizing & investing so much on it through grants and scholarships for improving the quality of life. But we are just getting started Shege Version 1.1 update on the way. |

isaacsegun:Don't panic structures aren't designed as whole rather in bits and their performance as a whole. Simply learn the basics of loading, load transmission, analysis of individual members and types starting with one way slab then two way, ribbed, waffle then beams; simply support, continuous, overhang, cantilever then columns, foundation; pad, raft & beam, raft, cellular raft, piles( here you'll need knowledge of geotechnics even if given the results) Retaining walls. With your knowledge of the above, you'd be prepared to design a bridge since you have the basic design knowledge for both R.C.C and steel. Try source for a start textbooks that have been simplified 1. Reinforced Concrete Design by Dr V. N Oyenuga & foundation design by same author. 2. Reinforced Concrete Structure Design by Engr. Lawrence Ettu 3. Design of structural elements by Chanakya Arya(you can get softcopy then print) 2 Likes |

gabiomoesu:Apologies for the late reply as I've been away for a while. From your writeup, I could deduce that you're not studying in Nigeria. If that's the case, I'd advise you remain there and struggle to build a name for yourself in any of the engineering coys while looking for opportunities that would take you to the middle east where civil engineering is being pushed. (An example is Atkins and others) Coming to Nigeria to practice; sadly I won't advice you to come back in the name of practicing until measures are put in place to checkmate the activities of quacks which surpasses the pros within the field. Due to the nefarious attitude of those at the helm of affairs. In other developed nations, the engineering body is the lead in every physical Engineering/building structures and approves such before commencement but here in Nigeria, it never existed. Civil engineering is very broad if you take time to reflect on it and the natural environment. Have you considered specializing in other areas apart from structures? If you've made up your mind to practice as a structural/highway engineer, the middle east would be a better challenging environment to break boundaries as that's what I'm currently working on. That's my one cent. If you have any questions feel free. |

DUNKA:NO One4me: Dennis3D: There are so many varying Factors to be considered before arriving at a percentage. This depends on the type of job, contracting firm, Resources, inflation, the size of it workforce Etc some may go as high as ....% if you can afford them but rather than downgrading an entire profession, one is entitled to employ the services of a quack or whoever he/she feels is able execute the project. For clarity sake, such information is usually not made public(between client and contractor) with exception to some who claim to be. It all boils down to your Financial Strength(budget), expectations and what you as an individual/corporate entity can afford. THE STANDARD IS ON THE VERY HIGH SIDE AND YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO KNOW AND IS MOSTLY APPLICABLE FOR LUMP SUM CONTRACTS (Design+Execute/ Design Only/ Execution Only) Truth is nobody does a satisfactory job without being satisfied with the payment as wouldn't want to be at the losing end and it crosses over every aspect of life at jobs and businesses. NB: This in no way makes excuses for the bad eggs. 1 Like |

Education / Re: The Disadvantages Of Sending Your Children To Boarding Schools by General2COAS(m): 9:02pm On Jul 14, 2019 |
The advantages outweighs the disadvantages. One of the major disadvantage is the Finance which is usually on the high side. secondly unless you did not train your child/ward to a level where you can boast/attest to his/her character in all ramifications, then you have it all to worry. If not that's one of the best places for your children especially the Unity/military owned boarding schools where they are exposed to real life scenarios. I was part of the system and i feel no regrets. I had classmates who started their primary school in boarding schools though private. 44 Likes 2 Shares |
