Hmmm, interesting.
As a layman that I am, I think that building should be sitting on a raft foundation which I dont think it is.
That foundation is not stable.
Solution to this(I pray there's one) may be very costly and/or temporary.
Let's see what the elders have to say.
Thank you

Charisdesigns:

Causes:
1) Foundation
When I see defects or settlements such as this on building, the first thing I will ask is "is the foundation done properly or better still if the right foundation type was used."

2) Ineffective bonding between the blocks and mortar

Remedy

Get a structural engineer to help you determine if the crack is a major or minor one.
If the latter is the case, before plastering, he should re add mortar to those crack lines in other to create a better bond between the mortar and block wall

Then nail chicken nets to that area before plastering as shown in the attached picture

Thank you

It’s way cheaper than all other types of parapet in the market and it can be retouched or you can actually change the color.

It’s kobocity’s answer to kobocitizens’ champagne taste on a lacasera budget grin grin
