Akerewe:


Like someone said above, we need someone reliable to b around our project, imagine a bricklayer decided to measure 15 headpan of sand for 1 bag of cement for setting blocks contrary to 12 headpan of sand Instructed nd when confronted he refused to measure the stipulated portion claiming it's a standard until we change it for him big time nd treating to sack him before he heed to our instructions to measure 12headpan. We need to b around because these guys are foolish pple and are ready to do away with our materials if chanced.

My Comrade we have seen a lot in this field, May God help us all.
At times when you go for cement bag counting as charges … they are ready to waste your cement I.e when a slab required 10bags of cement they will make it like 13 bags or more in other to increase there payment at the end of the daily work.
Someone need to be vigilant always.

Oh I have seen this before sir ! You’re very correct . I can’t afford this type . I will go for the sheets that will seat on the blocks with uch will have facing boards
InvertedHammer:




Those side block walls should be covered with aluminum pan. Usually those people that bend the aluminum pans should be able
to use the measurements to bend the flat pans to fit exactly into the space. The goal is to make sure that the block works and
cap above the flat roof are not be exposed to water. That is a permanent way to ensure no leakage nor water soaking the walls whatsoever.

NB: if done well and channelled well, the roof will last a lifetime with no leakage problems.

If one square meter of aluminum sheet is 2500 (going by the price of 0.45 gauge roofing sheet)
Therefore, 50k worth would only cover 20 square meters.
Being that there are 4 sides need
So each side is assumed to be 5 square meters

You are right. It depends on the size of his build. But then each one shouldn't take a whole square meter. Don't forget that up there are not perfect squares because they start and slope down.

A competent carpenter should be able to get him a good measurement/estimate. Actually if he has two angle irons put together, they can do the measurements and bending at the site to get it right.
