weldone OP God will help u complete it

on the issue of digging of soakaway, It depends on the location, if the place is prone to erosion or flooding then its not advisable.... and if the land is free of the aforementioned problems then after digging, plastering the soakaway is advisable that would help in storing run off water.
God bless your work brother
P.S the plastering doesn't have to be the standard it could be roughly done since its a temporary measure ..

Did you follow that building plan to the letter ?

What are the dimensions of your rooms or the total surface area of the house ?

I will advice you to do the sand filling now. Red sand/mud does not cost much. Say N7,000 per trip. Ask your supplier to load from a Pail loader/caterpillar. 3 Trips of red mud supplied by a 911 truck should fill that foundation. Then do your German floor. It does not cost as much as people think. One trip of stone, One trip of sand and 15 bags of cement will do the job. Should not be too thick. 4 inch thickness is very ok. What gives solid and smooth floors is floor tiling after building.

15 bags of cement for dpc of 4inches thick?
Are you kidding?
Please what is your mix ratio?
Awaiting your response

My bros, I've seen things on this Nairaland oo..
Some people can finish a whole house with 20 bags of cement on this NL

Brother, how far with this project?

Please @imoci don't abandon this thread. Your update is highly needed. God bless you

Imoci wherr arec u? Come and finish this thread o!

[quote author=imoci post=33735796]This is my l section on this site, over the years I have read about people’s project, opinions, cost implication best practice etc on building.
Seriously this year I found it more interesting as I was getting close on starting my own building project.

Here is a brief on the job so far, suggestions, criticism and contributions are welcome. (trust N/landers)

Excavation for foundation actually started on Tuesday and was completed yesterday; foundation work has been schedule for Saturday. I have already purchase 1000 blocks on site.
Though I will be using both 9 inches and 6 inches for the foundation. The 9 inches will be used for the external walls while the 6 inches will be used for internal demactions.so I purchased 700 of 6 inches and 300 of 9 inches which am sure will do the job.Founadtion setting will be three couches.
Though the builder asked me to purchase 20 bags of dangote cement, but I have already paid for 15 bags I know this won’t be enough. Am also planning for 50k as omonile money.

More update will be coming soon as the project progresses, but before I go I will like to say a very big thank you to the following nairalanders for their immense and endless contribution on this section.

• Jaurus for sharing his personal experience on this site
• HSL brokers
• 100cents
• Spyder
• Abdulwastec
And the big boss on this section HAJJI M
But this list will not be complete without measuring my amiable friend and architect Smartview Associates (SVA) he is actually the designer of this project.
