Soakaway vs Septic tank. What's the difference?

The septic tank is where the waste water and effluent first arrives from the building, the compartment is plastered and is supposed to be water tight. The waste in this tank goes through bacterial degradation which will reduce its size and toxicity. As the waste gets more liquefied, it is expected to start flowing into the soak away section of the system through a pipe placed in the middle wall. The flow into the soakaway is mostly water, and this water is supposed to soak away into the surrounding soil from weep holes created to leak water away from this tank. This water will either evaporate, or travel downwards as ground water which has been filtered just like all the other dirty water going below the ground.

Waiting for more sand to be supplied so we can complete the DPC of the second unit.

Ready to start the formation of the walls in this building...........

Warming up for the second unit.

The rain has been a serious blessing, it has been so helpful as it naturally sinks in this foundation soil. We will still pump water into the foundation when some fix our borehole in this site by tomorrow. Welcome bro.

Buying and offloading more blocks in this site today...........

Moulding of block and waiting for rain to solidify the blocks na for person wey no keep money to build. The pace you work with is something I will need to learn. Moving from state to another to supervise and monitor projects is very stressful like this. Yet you seamlessly do it like clockwork

Looking at the wall partitions from above..............

More work ongoing on the soakaway system for these 2 duplexes...........

Kuduos to you sir, you're doing a very wonderful job here
