Response please

Please how many days do I have to wait after the ground floor decking before raising blocks on it for the first floor?

Secondly the blocks on my ground Floor have been completely raised from DPC and now waiting for lintel and decking but I want to leave it like that until end of February before going ahead with the next step. Is it okay leaving the blocks open for that long?(5 moths)

Knowledgeable members kindly help with this urgent question.

Thanks

Sometimes professionally, we have to really guide our emotions and not let it influence or ruin our business reputation and relationships.
Ethically, would you know if the people whom you just listed as your former clients would appreciate this publicity?

Not so long ago, I finished the construction of my house, it lasted 8 months and finally the repair is over. The first question that became-is how to buy a kitchen. We went through several companies that are engaged in kitchens and focused our attention on https://escabinetry.com/blog/how-to-buy-a-kitchen-useful-tips/, as they offered the largest selection of variations and selection exactly according to our wishes. And now my wife is already cooking with might and main in the new kitchen and is happy with the choice!

You can start raising upper floor wall after the 3rd day of casting with daily wetting.

Secondly the blocks on my ground Floor have been completely raised from DPC and now waiting for lintel and decking but I want to leave it like that until end of February before going ahead with the next step. Is it okay leaving the blocks open for that long?(5 moths)

You can leave the structure for that duration, nothing will happen to it.

We will need more details, such as the water storage tank size, the height of your overhead tank, and horizontal distance, to get the maximum head and the flow rate,

3/4 or 1hp is ok for you .
Based on experience in the field
Just buy any pump that comes with real copper coil.

Pls is there any different between submersible pumps and regular pumps?

Ibk2020:

* 16ft overhead tank
* 3,000 liter water tank
* Approximately 25ft horizontal distance

Based on the calculation, look out for a submersible pump set with a maximum head (Hmax) : 120metre or 12bar, flow rate : 30l/min, it can be 1HP or 1.5HP but take note of the flow rate and maximum head written on the pump, it can be higher than this, but it should not be less,

These are the two major things needed in pump sizing, not really Horse power,

Both serve different purpose.

Submersible it’s for bore hole
While surface pump is used to Transfer water and also used for very shallow WELL and Shallow bore hole

Good evening house. Please I just got a new mini flat. They have done POP but they did not put surface light inside the pop. They just kept one wire at the middle of the POP for light.

Is it possible to run wiring for surface light on the POP without spoiling anything?

Or will I have to do a new POP to run surface light?

The first picture those are hooks not wire. It is only one wire in it.

Please I am looking for the cheapest possible idea that won't disfigure the place.

You can't run Surface wiring on POP ×


The wire at the middle is where your electrician would install the Pop light.



If you need extra lights on your POP, all wiring would be done inside the Pop ceiling.


Let me know, if you need more help, As long as it deals with POP.

You need to learn how to swim with the sharks here.

In case you don’t know, this is not the end of it. Don’t be surprised when another person show up!

It’s a cowards way of managing conflicts. Shockingly it was started by the highly educated ones with better exposure and not the so-called illiterates.

Many thanks to those who made this a tradition here.

You can cut more holes in the pop to add more spot light as you wish…. Call an electrician near by he will tell you what to do.. he won’t damage the pop
