Guy, why are you quoting me? You should quote the person that accused you.

I thought this is an old issue.

folmus:
hehehehe, he just posted above.

What's going on?

folmus:
Now you see yourself. Please, those affected have resolved the issue but you want to shoulder what is not your issue.

Tell me, how my response fuel the saga.

redcliff:

vickzie:
does it also apply to payment for services rendered. a client is owing me a substantial amount when dollar was 360, now that money is worth half the value it's worth then, mind you client is a diasporan, earns in $, now he's gonna spend less $ to pay me up whenever he deems fit, he gains, I loose. mind you this was a gentleman agreement, no contract.

davodyguy:
That guy must be one serious pervert

uncleteeh:
Sir, this is where we get it wrong. Architectural Plans ain't meant to be bought, a design must always be uniquely done for a particular survey plan.
A lot of factors must be considered before an architect designs.

Abudu2000:
okay let me tell u a little secret, most architects and engineers have apprentices, alot of thempr even IT students. They need them for clients like your neighbor that like to underpay. My CEO is a masters degree holder in civil engineering, he's like a god in this job he will never, I repeat never sit on his chair to analyze any job that isn't worth it when there alot of important steel jobs waiting to be touch. Even I won't bother, so such jobs are pushed down for the boyz to practice then checked by the engineer and the errors corrected, is that what you want? When u engage a professional, pay him well for his job and you will get your money worth. If that was how you are being paid in ur own job u won't be able to afford the drawingsinthe first place.

Finishing fully on

For small projects, you can order from brick maker.

In my case, we hired the machine from hydraform guys and produced on site.

bixton:
You will definitely use regular blocks at the foundation level(substructure stage). At your DPC level you will introduce a beam( plinth beam) which is where you start to lay the interlock brick blocks. As a measure to cut cost you can mark out the areas where you want the bricks to be. It can be bricks eternally only and regular blocks internal. Remember this bricks are maintained by proper polishing from time to time so it maintains its colourful nature.

spyder880:
From Enugu with bricks, this is the house of one big man, the bricks are looking neat and fresh where it has a cover, but turning dark and ugly where its exposed to rain.
I remember that I nearly invested in this brick making machine two years ago. We have very good brick making soil in some parts of Enugu.

n3xt:
The quality of materials used. Most companies using this technology just assume once you have laterite or clay and brick producing machine, you’re good to go.

I believe if a company like HFP is producing the bricks, it’ll be made to industry standard.

twinskenny:
what of maintenance? Does it require any special maintenance? Saw our around my area and the bricks has become darker over time

EgunMogaji2:
I think it's really cool but as with most things in Nigeria execution lacks attention to detail. In the USA brick houses, even facades commands premium pricing.

n3xt:
Is it really worthwhile?

I’ve used it and seen it on some projects including the Amen Estate. There’s practically nothing spectacular about it tbh.
It was super cool during the build but years after I just can’t feel it anymore.

Anyway, there’s a company in Ogun state that sells good price though. I’ll share the info when I have it.

The only thing I enjoyed while using this bricks is the interlocking idea. I really wish building blocks are made that way.

EgunMogaji2:
We actually did this on here some years back. The prices will be all different now but the quantity should suffice to give you an idea.

You'll have to search.

Focusmind:
It is not. I thought of the idea before starting my project as I so much love bricks and natural stones as exterior wall rendering. If you have the money, fire on with the bricks. It makes the house everlasting and differentiates your build from the rest within the neighbourhood.

mountmoriah:
have done that sir, am also mountmoriah on kobocity, and to be candid I love that name kobocity, whoever coin that name he is intelligent, kobocity will soon be known throughout the whole world, I check kobocity on Google trend it is growing rapidly

Thanks

cococandy:
Whatever led to the stroke probably led to the cardiac arrest too. Hyperlipidemia is a silent culprit.

If he spoke with the kids just this past thanksgiving, that means he probably was still having a good relationship with the kids. How do people know she told him he wasn’t the father? Only her knows who the true father is.

People should stop saying that’s what killed him when that’s not an empirical measure of cause of death.

Shut your dirty mouth, you are not a Northerner, just another Troll using multiple I.D's to waste your own time here.
All of you using multiple I.D's to post rubbish here, can cry from today till tomorrow, you wont get any apology because You are Nobody.

@Davodyguy did not insult any Igbo person, he even said specifically that "ALL TRIBES have criminals among them" and why you guys think ALL TRIBES mean Igbo tribe, is best understood by yourselves?!.
I am still looking for the word "Igbo", in his post and until someone shows me, they can point fingers at themselves, if they feel guilty.
You cant bully him into making an apology, when he has not done or said anything wrong.

If the matter touch you and you are feeling guilty, change your ways

Please keep posting all your nonsense, it wont stop anyone from asking or answering questions about building.
The joke is on you and your nuisance value.
After all your insults on other tribes, did you hear anyone of them fighting you or asking you to Apologise?

The Motto of Guardian Newspaper says: Conscience is an Open wound.
Ofcourse, if you are guilty, you will always be afraid, even when no one is chasing you.

It may be possible. The client who did that was a very big importer in Lagos.

Are you looking at 40ft container for roofing sheets alone? Or including other stuffs?

n3xt:
It’s possible. I did a project here few years ago. The client ordered everything from roofing to bathroom fixtures and wardrobes from china in a 40ft container.

I think it took 60 days.

_______
Also there are Chinese companies talking to us directly on our projects. But we are doing this for a mini-estate requiring over 10,000sqm

- Superior Insulation
- Better sound absorption (you’ll have to do over 1mm gauge of aluminum or install fiberglass insulation to match this).
- Strength of concrete
- Fire resistant

One of the major drawback of flat roofs in contemporary builds is insulation (heat or sound).

You don’t have to believe. You just need to ask for the address. It’s adjacent COWLSO building in Lekki Scheme II, Lagos.

Yinmu!

Before stone-coated, there was Nigerite Super lightweight. Then, longspan roofing sheet. Later, Steptiles. Not too long metcopo, shingles, shakes, Gerald, polycarbonate, SIP, acrylic and so on...

Everything is only a matter of time!

_____

I did a project in Lekki, Lagos for a high profile Nigerian here and he decided to use Nigerite roofing sheet. He cares not about who’s looking! His land costs about 60m

______

In similar vein, I did a 8.5m roof in 2015. Guess What! It was a longspan roofing sheet. That amount will almost deliver a duplex (carcass) in some location.

Everything is a matter of choice!
