Sir Correctyourself,

Please, come and answer him. He has apologized. I understand how he felt at the question. You know this faceless forum troublemaker thingy..
For the sake of ........., please, put him through.

I'm saying that message can't be trusted

You don't need to tell Emeka51 that it can't be trusted. It's total scam.

abdulwastecx:
I am aware about of that factor of safety and that is why I allow 25% for shrinkage.

Ok Sir. Thanks

abdulwastecx:
ELEMENT 3: Foundation concrete work
perimeter of foundation = 120m
width of strip footings = 0.675m
depth of foundation footing = 0.225m

Volume of concrete = 120 x 0.675 x 0.225 = 18.225m3
using a mix ratio of 1:3:6

part of cement = 1/9 x 18.225 x 1506/50 = 61bags ( 75bags) = N150,000

part sand = 3/9 x 18.225 x 1.6/10 = 0.972 ( 1 trip of four bucket sharp sand) = N30,000

part of gravel = 6/9 x 18.225 x 2.4/30 = 1 trip of 30tonnes 3/4 gravel = N220,000

workmanship = N60,000

Total = N460,000

Oga, how did you come about the 10 and 30 @ the bolded? Also, why did you divide the ratios by 9 instead of 10 (1+3+6)?

abdulwastecx:
mix ratio for foundation footing for bungalow should either be 1:3:6 or 1:2:4 for normal soil.
i prefer 1:2:4 ( 1 bag of cement : 4 head pan of sand or 1 wheel barrow of sand : 8 head pan of gravel or 2 wheel barrow of gravel). reason been that the foundation of bungalow is very important because it help to distributes the wall load to foundation adequately.
A typical foundations supporting a three bedroom flat or its equivalent should have the following features

1. minimum thickness of 100mm ( 4'') and should not more than 225mm (9'') thick on a strong soil for economy reason.
2. the sharp sand should not be too smooth and free from clay and other dirt which may reduce the strength of concrete
3. the gravel should be preferably 3/4 ( 20mm) thick and must be free from dust.
4. the water for mixing should be drinkable and free from salt and other chemical contamination
5. the water-cement ratio must not be greater than 0.6.


mode of calculating the volume of concrete for foundation footings ( strip foundation).
1. get the sum of the total gird of the substructure, let say 'P' = 50 ( example)
2. get the width of the foundation, say 450mm (18'') for 150mm ( 6" wall and 675mm ( 27" ) for 225mm (9" wall
3. Assume a thickness of say 150mm for 6" wall and or 225mm for 9" wall.
4. convert all your dimension to 'm'
5. hence volume, v =50x 0.45 x 0.15 = 3.375m3
6. increase the volume by 25% to cater for shrinkage and wastage. =1.25 x 3.375= 4.05m3

using mix ratio 1:2:4
part of cement = 1/7 x4.05 =0.58m3
since the density of ordinary Portland cement s 1506kg/m3
and i bag = 50kg
hence, no of bags = 0.58 x 1506/50 =17.4bags ( 18 bags aprox.)

part of sand = 2/7 x 4.05 =1.16m3
since the density of sharp sand is 1600kg/m3 and a tonne of sharp sand is 1000kg
hence, 1.16 x 1600/1000 = 1.856tonnes ( 2 tonnes aprox.)

part of gravel = 2 x 1.16 = 2.32m3
since the density of gravel is 2400kg/m3 and a tonne of gravel weight 1000kg
hence, 2.32 x 2.4 =5.57tonnes ( 6 tonnes )

part of water using water cement ratio of 0.6
weight of water = 0.6 weight of cement = 0.6 x 18 x 50 =540kg
volume of water required, from density = mass/volume
making volume subject, volume = mass/density
where density of water = 1000kg/m3
hence, volume of water required = 540/1000= 0.54m3
since,1m3 = 1000liters
volume of water required = 540 liters

Bumped into this thread and found it worthy and knowledgeable. But I've got some questions to ask --
When calculating quantity of materials from your mix ratio, don't we consider the Volume of dry concrete dat ranges from 1.54 - 1.57 or thereabouts as a FOS to counter shrinkage? I didn't see you multiply such in your calculation for qty of cement, sand and gravel.

@op, no mind all these peeps wey dey type gibberish.

Why are we learning what is not applicable in real life? None, has helped me in real life except the class room.

My dear, I do not know what you studied in your school, neither do I know how it's helping you.. As for me, every little thing, not minding the big ones, I learnt from my secondary to university education is helping me and so important for my career growth as they are basically the things I work with/on daily.
Example: I am a Civil Engineer (Graduate). In one of my courses, I learnt analysis and design of structural members (Beams, Slabs, Columns [in a layman's word Pillar]) and today, those calculations, analysis and designs (though sometimes computerized) are still done by me to ensure that these structures stand the test of time.
So you see, they are, one way or the other, useful in our work places.

PS: I once asked myself this question back then in University

First Reading: Joel 2:12-18
Psalm: 51. R. v. 3a
Second Reading: 2Cor 5:20-6. 2
Gospel: Mt 6:1-6. 16-18

Today, the Church takes a break from the Ordinary time of the Year C to begin the Lenten Season of Fasting, Prayer, Penitence and alms giving which starts today being Ash Wednesday. The Church moves from the use of the liturgical color green (symbolizing Hope, Life, and Anticipation) to the use of the liturgical color violet (symbolizing Penance, Sacrifice, and Preparation). Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of full fast and abstinence. It is also mandatory to fast from meat on these days including all Fridays in Lent. During the mass today, after the gospel and the homily, we will be marked with ashes on our foreheads. Ashes are biblical symbol of mourning and penance (Nm 19:9-10, 17-18). They symbolize our mortality and also a reminder of the joy of eternal life. Thus, the priest says as he cross-signs the ashes on our foreheads: “Remember! You are dust and to dust you shall return” or “Repent, and believe the good news!”

This call to repentance does not require an exterior display of remorse but a sincere interior conversion. This was precisely the message of the prophet Joel in the first reading: ‘We should return to the Lord with our hearts torn and not our garments’. Thus, "Let us change our garments for ashes and sackcloth: let us fast and lament before the Lord: for plenteous in mercy is our God to forgive sins" (Joel 2:13). St Paul also in the second reading advises us to be reconciled to God. Because for our sake Christ, though sinless, took our sins upon himself in order to make us righteous. Jesus in the gospel of today reiterated the need for us to carry out the three religious obligations of Lent (PRAYER, FASTING & ALMS GIVING) with a selfless motive so that its spiritual benefits will not elude us. We should therefore give alms, pray, and fast.

My dearest in Christ, It is not encouraged at this period to disregard completely the law of fast and abstinence except for health reasons. We are not to miss Mass. We should be charitable both in words and deeds, forgiving, sacrifice our leisure times to pray, love and not hate, endeavor to live or our corporal duties of visiting the sick and help the needy. We can halt excessive buying, and save money to help the poor and the needy. Lent is a period of true repentance, self-denial, and generosity of heart.

Beloved, let us begin the Holy Season discovering the true meaning of LENT, by leaving behind all negative things of the past and striving for a future filled with Hope! (Phil 3:7-14)

Fasts have a tendency to be oriented toward things like giving up food or television. But there are many other creative ways we can welcome Jesus' healing touch.

1. Fasting from anger and hatred. Give our family an extra dose of love each day.

2. Fasting from judging others. Before making any judgments, recall how Jesus overlooks our faults.

3. Fasting from discouragement. Hold on to Jesus' promise that He has a perfect plan for our life.

4. Fasting from complaining. When we find ourselves about to complain, close our eyes and recall some of the little moments of joy Jesus has given us.

5. Fasting from resentment or bitterness. Work on forgiving those who may have hurt us.

6. Fasting from spending too much money. Try to reduce our spending by ten percent and give those savings to the poor.

Wishing you all Peace, Love, and Happiness during this Lenten season!

@Kookny, Chevlink does not exist.

If Chevlink does not exist, then you're invariably saying that Careers24 is a scam.. Becos, they sent me a job vacancy mail about Chevlink recruiting Graduate Trainees (or Engineers) which I did apply or did not apply for (Can't remember sha).
But it's true you, won't find their company profile online. I searched and searched, NOTHING!

Blacksodje:
the worrying part in this ish isnt the number of men (43) she had slept with but the number of times she must have slept with each man....
she could have slept with one man 15 times......so do the maths

Bros, you're so on point.. I actually thought she said 43 times until I saw your post and had to go back to read that line again.. That's the height of it!

I actually do not support that lifestyle but, must it be a daily bread? What happened to abstinence? Must they deceive her with marriage just to gain access to her future? Hmm, I pity her sha.
