It was actually an honest question...

Since I had a lot of follow up questions, thought it was better to first establish his ties to the project first.
Alas, the question wasn't answered.

But the job was well executed, whoever did it.

Correct. but what does the share function do? I've always wondered.

Cos I use it more like a bookmark for future reference.

In the absence of a bookmark function, your likes and/or shares (if minimized to really deserving posts only) can help you retrieve easily.

Oh seen.

I wanted to offer you my double-vibrated block making for use as it has been decommissioned for the rest of the year.
No worries then, exclusive Lagos use only at discretion.

But produce your blocks since you don't have time and cost constraints.

Good luck.

While that is perfectly fine to work with someone remotely, is that the ideal situation or just a limitation placed on you by your geographical location, which leaves you with no choice?

If the client is fully on ground and don't have such limitations, then s/he is best served with an architect which they can meet easily in person.

Ask for the contacts of the potential customer making enquiries and send to them privately, though it would have been good to share here for others to see.

The concept is basic but that person definitely needs some clarity and guidance.

If you cant upload a video, well labeled pictures will do.

Exactly what was proposed. Will most likely do same.
Mop the place when needed.

Reduce the complication so we can bother about using trap or suitable method for the area with mandatory drain.

EgunMogaji2:


I did away with the floor drains and only kept the one in the showers. After all we don't have floor drains in the kitchen.

This is indeed a valid issue.

To mitigate this, my M&E engr suggested we do without the floor drain in the general open area like WC. Floor drain with trap will still be used for the shower area but none in the open floor area. just evacuate the water when needed.

Not at that stage yet, so undecided on that for now.

I also wonder how reliable the floor drains with trap are in keeping away those external agents.

bigrovar:
Hello my Oga in the house. I have a question about a small but quite important aspect of a house that is often over looked. Floor drain. I have noticed that they eventually become a major entry point for roaches and sometimes rodents (like rats mice)

The generic floor drain used in most homes is a big culprit. You can mitigate by periodically flushing down a mixture of sniper but you need to be doing this sometimes once every 2 months.

I once found a flood drain that has a closing spring system which allows you tap ( with your foot ) to close. Unfortunately they did not last and the closing mechanism eventually got stuck closed.

Does anyone have an idea how to have a floor drain that is designed to be resistance to pets and other crawlies. Is this something anyone here has noticed ?

Our designs are flat roof... we do the 0.55 metra always.

Normal corrugation is the defualt and more common and will do the job, especially since its hidden but someone explained something to me about the metra providing more water run-off hence less susceptible to leak. It made sense so I stuck with that since then.

On 0.77, I'm sure you know its an overkill but yeah you can if cost isn't an issue. But do the metra.

Check dedicated roofing threads for prices.

somehow:
Please house, how much is aluminium Long span:

0.55
0.70

Single corrugation (normal)
And
Double corrugation (metra)

Finally, which of the 2 options above is good for flat/slant roof?

Thanks in advance.

They are busy this period as construction is peaking, so travel out of town will not be so attractive to them.

We awarded ours together with the PoP work, jejely joined a queue while staging the other work .... with over 2k sqm combined to do btw internal & external, not taking chances with anyhow workmen.

I suggest you speak to your PoP guy, they always have those that work closely with them.

You’ll also need an approximate average depth.

Use a dipstick to test for the deepest point and use that for a worst case volumetric calculation.

Also, the type of filling material you adopt will affect your volume due to different properties - laterite, sharp, white filling sand etc. depending on what’s available in Isolo.

Search the thread very well for density factors to use. Someone dropped those in the past.
