But I have heard alot of plumbers complaining about the maintenance of this bio digester system. And I have also seen many landlords who did it scrapping it n doing the regular soakaway system . What could be the down side of this bio digester system?
Maintenance: Biogas digesters require regular maintenance and monitoring to ensure they operate efficiently. If not properly maintained, they can become a source of odors and other nuisances. This maintenance can be time-consuming and may require specialized knowledge.
When the required expertise is not involved,it becomes a menace.

But if it's properly maintained then no issues at all.

It's funny lots of people advertising the use of bio digester in homes don't fully disclose its disadvantages.

That’s if they understand the advantages/disadvantages of the product they’re selling.
Many homeowners are used as guinea pigs to test many of these new solutions.

Please is there anything that can be done about these greenish stuff on the interlock at the back of the house? To eliminate or reduce it. It makes the backyard really slippery and messy to walk on. Strangely, it's only at the back and not at the front (2nd pix)

Seems the interlockings at the back are absorbing moisture/water.

Good evening Sir,

I was told by a friend that have similar issue that it is common in clustered areas of a compound that is devoid of sunlight.

I'm almost at this stage, I once read here that stamp Concrete doesn't allow the growth of the greenish organisms. I stand to be corrected.

Well done.

The final coat on a stamped concrete floor (applied with a brush, as if like applying normal paint) is usually an acrylic sealer that is UV resistant, meant to enhance the appearance by forming a high-gloss, “wet look” and is also highly water-repellent.

Nothing can grow on it while inplace. But the problem is when they are too economical in its application, then foot and vehicular passage erodes it easily.

Ironically, the same high traffic that would erode the coating, will also guarantee no algae will grow/survive on the interlocking bricks.

Regular sweeping helps prevent the algae. Chemical / bleach is used when no colour pigments are used in the interlocking

As long as you inform your family not to flush household bleach or similar harsh chemicals down the toilet, you should be fine.

If you must use antiseptic soaps and similar cleaning agents, then you have to routinely pour biomass into one of the toilets and flush it into the septic tank.

The normal septic tank works on the same principle but is more tolerant of abuse due to massive size/ volume

Odour occurs either when their is insufficient air (blocked vents) or harsh chemicals has destroyed the aerobic bacterial population. Once that happens, the anaerobic bacteria begins to thrive and the byproduct is the odour

I want to use zinc to roof my project.. Which brand is the best (best quality) pls
Regular zinc is very very noisy during rains.
Please beware. Even aluminium less than 0.5 is also considered noisy. Noisy as in you cannot have normal conversation while it's raining.

Pop reduces but doesn't completely eliminate the noise.

Can u run me a breakdown on how those suspended varrenders are able to balance their weight. Say a 2m suspended beam coming from a 7m long wall
Technically one can have an unlimited cantilever span provided one has more than twice the weight (from the mass/length of the span) on the other side acting as a counterbalance.

The problem is that the beam depth(as in thickness /deepness lol) increases with the span. At a point, it becomes uneconomical

Nigerian engineers are just lazy and prefer to work with rules of thumb rather than run their own bending moment and acceptable deflection calculations each time
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aforxzy(f): 7:21pm On Oct 10, 2023
The" green stuffs " are green algea. They are found in damp areas, on well compacted / non porous soil layers or well shaded areas from sunlight.
From your picture, that part of your compound with the algea growth retains water while the front doesn't . This agea grows in a damp and cold area. This is more pronounce because of the rainy season and will soon disappear during the dry season.

You can apply fungicides, bleach solution or baking powder on the affected area and washed off with hard brush.

We just completed the plastering. Site is very close to Warri. I paid 570k for 30tons granite in June and you guys in Lagos, Ogun get it for 370k.
On the plastering charges,
Ones mileage may differ based on many many factors.

Some plastering are done without taking plum / level, while some use too much mud to make it faster and smoother, but these will result in major superficial cracks later on. While yet some go low, in the hopes of other non connected but anticipated gains in-view

Then again, we don't know if he had a relationship/connection /business history that resulted in the subsidy

If you can get this machine and the power brush, the whole of that stuff could be taken care of in less than 30 mins. It will look as good as new without even using any chemical.
