rotecch77: I came to find out about this when making hikes to install my CCTV. Some areas are thick and some are thin. Maybe Gypsum is my future material due to consistent thickness throughout. 1 Like |

Dominionng: Life lessons are powerful and rewarding. I argued before but I have now seen that it's near impossible for consistent thickness with POP. It's possible but it will require a conscientious and disciplined manufacturer. 2 Likes |

I prefer the old thatch roofs because these new stone coated roofs generate too much heat. Read, absorb and reflect! 1 Like 1 Share |

multikolour: Let me quickly attend to this. Plastering plastering plastering. There are so many things that can lead to this cracks - poor workmanship -non appropriate mix ratio - quick hydration - sub-standard materials Poor workmanship. At time when non professional handle this aspect of work it can lead to this cracks. ( example when appropriate wall thickness is not adopted, when cement and sand is not well mixed.) Mix ratio Plastering and rendering comes in different mix ratio ( if truly you used 109 bags of cement it too much for this building means this can lead to the crack … too much of cement . Yes I was though this in sch as building technology student then and also as I put this into practice as a builder now to always check the appropriate mix ratio to avoid cracks) here you cement shouldn’t be more than 70bags to covered this building Quick hydration When you are in hot region or in dry season you needs to check how to do your plastering/ rendering reason why you must wet your wall before plastering unless if the wall is wet bit before … this wet serve as curing with this you will not experience cracks Sub standard materials Cement, sand even dirty water can cause this cracks. Your cement must be in good state condition , make sure you used fine sand for your plastering more so don’t used dirty water. Finally you don’t need to be panic a well mixed ratio of screeding solution coupled with good workmanship will solved the problem. 4 Likes |

Epzilon:they quoted 200 bags but, when I posted here I was advised against it and I had to take a leave from office to monitor it. That's why we ended up with 109 bags, if not I may have spent 200 bags on the air |
