spyder880: Casting starts

spyder880: we are now adding the twisted rods, bent to fit the design

doctorgold: @ OP, this is a job well done. God will continue to provide for you. I wish to point ur attention to the fact that it is bad practice to construct a building without oversite concrete. If your architect included the sections in the drawing document, that means you chose to ignore it. The wall of your building tends to draw water frm the ground with time and it may lead to peeling of the paints at the base of the wall in the rooms. That is what oversite concrete prevents. Weldone all the same. God will build you a bigger one .

Muyesky: here is the floor plan, i hope you'll find it useful

spyder880: Thank you my man, firstly, your user name sounds familiar, maybe from my former base on SMN?

May I also point out that your inputs about room temperatures within the hollow type of blocks and the solid blocks is an ongoing debate that has not been put to any clinical trial like an experiment with a room thermometer or any other device, maybe some of has to conduct this test to set that argument to rest once and for all. I have lived in houses with both hollow and solid blocks and cannot tell the difference in temperature.

In my present abode, which I am sure was built with hollow blocks, I cannot see any heating of the rooms at night, my rooms are always too cold at night to the extent that I always use blanket for most of the year. I live upstairs though.

On your second point about why 5'' and 4'' blocks are not frequently used, I think it has something to do with the pillar size, diameter. The bigger the width of the blocks you use, the thicker your column, beam sizes as the columns take same size with the blocks it supports. People always feel safer using bigger columns, especially upstairs buildings.

I know more experts will throw more light on this.

YoungBrain: Dear Sir Spyder

Please kindly redo this topic with more details like mixing ratios, number of blocks per bag(9" ,6" hollows and 5",6" solids)
pictures of best quality of sand to use.

You might be suprised to know how many students are eagerly waiting for this lecture

spyder880: Molding block on site is surely less costly, this is because you stand to gain what the block industries gain by cutting them off and hiring molders yourself. But there is a price to pay for that gain, you will have to provide time to 'baby sit' the block makers if you want the best results. You have to be around to monitor the mix ratio, the packing conditions and most importantly, prevent them from stealing your cement and making more sand to cover the missing cement.

On your second question of which is better, well, if you reduce your mixing ratio to mean less sand is used to mix each bag of cement, you will get a stonger product of blocks. But remember that some block industries also have vibrating engines that ensure stronger compaction. God bless u


Look up my thread about block making, "The technology of block making" for more related posts.

spyder880: A single 9" hollow block is sold for N140 - N150. Depending on the location.

spyder880: The site, with the blocks in front.

jaibang: how much did they pay jesus when he was doing his healings and miracles and delivrance on earth?

Joagbaje: Why not get your own pastor to pray if you need a minister, but if you must get another man from another state to come with his so called team. You must bear responsibility for him and his crew. So you should organize a a vehicle for them and hotel to stay. And of course , give them a token of what you can afford. It is wrong for ministers to demand money for healing or for any ministerial work. But it's proper to give ministers money in appreciation but make sure the money cover their expenses and extra
