"How much will it cost to build a foundation for 2 bedroom flat times 3 bungalow"

Your specification/dimension is rather unclear.

1. Do you mean 2 bedroom flat or.

2. 3 bedroom bungalow.

3. What's your location?

4. What's the general dimensions of the building you have in mind from the floor plan?

This questions will help me guide you on an exact requirement you may need and its cost.

Thanks

assuming the following:
depth of foundation 600mm ( 3 courses of 6" block)
assuming a toilet of 6' x 4' ( 1.8m x 1.2m) and two toilwt per flat
assuming a living room of 14'x14' (4.2 x 4.2m)
assuming a kitchen of 8' x 8' (2.4 x 2.4m)
assuming a dinning of 8' x 8' (2.4 x 2.4m)

setting out should cost like N30,000

perimeter each of the room 3 x 3.6m ( 10 x 12) = ( (2x3)+(2x3.6)) = 13.2m x 2 x 3 = 79.2m
perimeter of living room/ dining for the three flats = (4.2 x 4)+(2.4 x 4) = 26.4m x 3 =79.2m
perimeter of kitchen/toilets = (2.4 x 4 ) +((1.2x2) + (1.8x2)) x 2) = 13.92m = 41.76m
total perimeter of the house = 200.16m

allowing 15% for circulation and veranda = 1.15 x 200.16 = 230.184m

depth of foundation = 600mm (2')
rate of excavation N300/m = N69,000(can be lower depending on location of building)

foundation strip footing depth and width of footing = 100mm (4''), 450mm(18'')
volume of concrete = 0.1 x 0.45 x 230 = 10.35m3
cement required using mix ratio of 1:3:6 = 1/10x10.35x1506/50 = 47bags of cement @ N200 per bag = N94,000
sand required = 3/10 x 10.35 x 1.6 = 5 tonnes of sand @ N1,600/tonnes = N8,000
gravel required = 6/10 x 10.35 x2.4 = 15 tonnes @ N8,000/tonnes = N120,000
workmanship = N40,000

foundation block = 230 x 0.6 x 10 =1380blocks @ N120/block = N165,600
cement for molter = 25bags @ N2000/bags = N50,000
sand = 5 tonnes = N8,000
workmanship = N70,000

filling and compaction to DPC level: depending on site conditions

DPM = N8,000
DPC of 75mm thick = 185 x 0.075 = 13.875m3
cement = 40bags = N80,000
sand = 15 tonnes = N24,000
gravel = 5 tonnes = N40,000
workmanship = N40,000

formwork for the DPC = N20,000

SUM = N850,000 ( MINUS CONTINGENCY)
