Unmovable. Since it is your personal house there is no point of having movable one

2 rooms are definitely not en-suite... What I feel he can do is to change the position of the bathroom doors, take them inside the rooms...change the entrance position of room 2

Thanks. This is one of the problems of being far away from one's project.

Advise needed please.

An insight is needed in making a cost effective choice please.

9 inches blocks all through without pillars/columns

Or

6 inches blocks with pillars/columns

Note:
* it is a Three bedroom bungalow
* It is on a dry and firm Land
* It's going to Carry parapet
In case you have wider openings that will have beam, use columns on the ends.
Concrete fascia (parapet) is quite heavy, try to introduce columns at strategic places like the corners of the building and ensure the columns carry the fascia directly.

Good evening boss.
Here is the ground floor pla of the project I am currently embarking on. Although it's still at foundation level.
But before I proceed further and release more funds, what adjustment do you suggest that I can make to make it more beautiful.

Secondly I noticed that the remaining two rooms are not ensuite, even though I was told that all the rooms are ensuite.
Please I am currently far away from the location of the project.
This design was done by a none professional.
Very far from creativity.
You didn't consult an architect.

calm down bro, don't just conclude that whoever is handling the project is incompetent. He never complained about a crack in foundation or a bent wall, all he asked was adjustment to the plans with him. Maybe his friend gave the plan and he wanted a little modification since he didn't want to do an architectural drawing for himself.

You have found in Nigeria a majority of Nigerians in Nigeria to be good people? hell no. I find the problems of Nigeria is the average Nigerian who are dishonest and dishonorable.

People build institutions and not the other way round and that is why some countries start by saying we the people.

You think angels will rule over devils or devils over angels hell no. The leaders are a reflection of what is acceptable in the society and until individuals take personal responsibility for how they contribute to the problem and start their own never again then change will not come.


diordaves:


"Government" is just a name? No Sir.

The government are the selected individuals given the MANDATE to govern and administrate by the people through a fair democratic process. Some government wrest this mandate through coup, war, militancy, brigandage, hereditary monarchy etc. So government is not just a name. It is a mandate given by the people to selected individuals to manage the affairs of a nation. These individuals (civil servants) of the people are expected to build institutions (vehicles) or manage existing institutions to make the nation work for the people. Everybody cannot be government or else there will be chaos.

In a nation where the selected individuals with the mandate to govern fail to build strong effective institutions, that nation will not deliver for the majority of the people. Nigeria is not working for the majority because the state institutions are largely weak and consequently ineffective:

The security institution is weak - hence crime and banditry.
The energy institution is weak - hence power blackout
The education institution is weak - hence poor literacy rate
The health institution is weak - hence citizens still die from malaria a sickness, N500 will cure.

I can go on and on to highlight the failure of statecraft at many levels. Nigeria is not working for the majority of the people. Nigeria is an amalgam of weak institutions deliberately constructed by the selected few to hold on perpetually to the corridors of power (the national cake).

A good Nigeria without good Nigerians is a dream pipe? The majority of Nigerians are good people, so I will reframe this statement:

A good Nigeria without good governance (strong institutions) is a pipe dream.
