Slow and steady wins the race, was only a year and 3 months ago that i started, and I can only thank God. You will be surprised with how far and fast you can go when you have the right team and put things into prayers. Even when some said "YOU CANNOT DO IT AND SHOULD NOT TRY IT, AND THREATS OF I WILL START LETTING YOU DEAL WITH WORKERS". I stand here from the rafters shouting, In Obama's voice YES I CAN.

Welding is an hobby to you?
I have a feeling that you don't know what welding entails, that is why you think it is hobby.

Welding angle irons and rebar isn't "welding" my brother.
There is a lot to welding that all those.

Anyways, I wish you well in your new hustle!!!


Do good for good to come your way!!!

Additional 26m2 of livable space added to the master's bedroom.
Serious joining/welding of angle bars happened yesterday.

Concrete is around N25,000/m2. The Steel Deck (to finished floor) is around N16,000/m2

*finished floor is not final floor finish but concrete floor

Actually, what u did is the extension of the existing concrete slab.
Tell me, what's d projection of the steel integrated slab and the structural approach? D reliability of the adjoining steel slab?

I have little interest in the technical construction discuss except where it remotely relates to my field but I'm really intrigued by the brabus steel decking if I may say and the technical questions raised by Segcymoor.
Since this is a learning thread, it would be nice having interactive intellectual parring by the professional builders and engineers on feasible designs.

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by lastpage: 12:00pm On Jul 30, 2016
I am BACK! Lastpage is back!!

I have been away from this section and Nairaland postings in general, since 16th of July! Seems like yesterday tho'.
My wifey (yes, Lastpage Madam) insisted l should 'chill-out' as according to her, l am beginning to take faceless people seriously.

Well, if there are two people whose counsel l take seriously, it's my Mother (of blessed memory) and my wife!
The Power of "Good Women" in our life! undecided

I was against her rebuttal, posted earlier but she insisted that "for the good of those who have come to respect and admire that @username" (even anonymously) l should allow her to make the rebuttal.
I concurred though l argued that she should not delete the thread as l feel it has and still doing some good to others.
Moreover, she did nothing wrong!. when you get the consent of someone to 'post on their behalf, in order to help them', you act in their capacity.


So, my Two weeks 'self-imposed moratorium' has elapsed. Madam wanted one month but l pleaded to 'allow me naah', as part of my relaxation! grin

While l was away, l noticed the RATS were having a field-day!
One even said l 'ran-away'!
grin grin
'Clowns' even said I am Brabus or my Madam is Brabus'w wife! (Brabus, if l see your face near my tent, you go hear am! grin )
Despite tens of posts on various sections of Nairaland where she has openly stated she is a woman, Lastpage's wife (in particular posts) and l have stated l am her husband (in my posts, on request where clarification was sought, as she is not a fan of the property section) some of these scallywags have said l am a woman!
One has to be very unintelligent, not to be able to say whether a poster is Male/Female, after reading about five of their post.
We would continue to use that single username, as we have always done.
We wont be like that one who was scouring for a Nigerian wife on Nairaland, on his visits to Nigeria, using a username his wife-to-be does not know, while at the same moment, the wife was arraigning a "spousal reunification" for him at the home office. undecided
That is how terrible some of these people are. undecided
Cheesux, wetin we nor go hear!

While away, I also noticed those who felt this was a "got-ya" moment and seized on it to yarn rubbish too. undecided

I also noticed that Brabus has been posting new things (He did not even bother to ask after me while l was away!
Na so life be? Et tu Brutus/Brabus? ). That is the Brabus we all yearn to see.

I also noticed that some peeps have gone to delete posts where they said they have HIV! shocked Oh-Well, we already know and the post was already quoted! grin grin
I also noticed that we have a new "Class Monitor" here. All Good, more grease to your elbow

I also noticed that, finally, we all agree to what l have been saying: Those who want to bash Builders should take it to threads specially created for that purpose....... or take the matter to EFCC who are qualified and empowered by LAW, to prosecute any allegation of Fraud.
This is why some Goats have made an enemy out of me! Simply because l refused to join them in bashing Brabus, from now till eternity.
Ofcourse, l did bash him initially and even assisted in ensuring he was refunding the cry-cry baby but after a while, l felt it was derailing a good thread.
Anyway, all good.

I also noticed that l have come to know the 'real person' behind one of the different Monikers.
You know, l did a little phone call to a friend who lives in the South/South and he in-turn did a little phone-call to the Land Registry in that side. He used the 4 coordinates of a survey plan/Approval submitted by the rat and voila!
All documentation/Approval application, e.t.c and bio-data of the person was made available.

So, if you still think you are anonymous, YOU are not! When you come into the country by year end, l would be 'informed' at the point of entry as you scan your Palli (Thats a service reserved for VIP's that you are getting, so that Escort can get ready to do their work) and MAY decide to even provide you with "security", free of charge, all the way to your house by NTA Rd, as my very good friend from N/Land.
One good turn they say, deserves another. undecided lipsrsealed
Its a small world and we need to be very careful about what we say/do online, under the guise of anonymity. undecided

Having said that, l am bound to honor the new trend here and keep this thread to strictly anything CONSTRUCTION AND BUILDING.

Brabus, l admire that iron contraption you are doing, l hope you get experts in material testing to confirm the strength of that material to withstand the intended load?
Remember, "those who are about to be roasted, ..... dont bath with petrol". undecided

I wont revert to this particular post again, (except l am compelled to).

"Lies, if repeated so often,... and left unchallenged, may assume an air of truth".

Truth be told, the writing pattern strongly suggests a middle age male but we do have brilliant females who write excellent novels with male characters.
All in all, it's a faceless forum and this id adds interesting perspective and color to this thread of the year.

I refuse to accept that your "welcome back".... until you support it with Alcoholic Hennesssy! grin grin undecided
You, of all people should have at least asked after me?

I understand you are going through trying times (your own fault tho) but then, l am one person who believed in your ability to re-invent yourself, turn a new leaf and get better.
You know l wont have all these grief (l have been on Nairaland for almost 7years with no issues, despite my string views in Politics Section!) .... until l told those mofos to DO THE RIGHT THING!

Welcome back
Gbadexy,

We have always stated clearly (where a poster wants to know..... and you can see many examples of that, if you have read a few of our posts) who was posting.
Its no biggy, they know but just like to be mischievous.
Ask yourself:
How come it is NOW (when we have issues over Brabus), that they suddenly remembered l am female, when some of the post date as far back as 2009?

Anyway, its behind me sha.


I have been enjoying your posts on manufacturing/mixing/producing paints and allied products.
I want to be an expert like you, when ll grow up. undecided

Thanks for the welcome back.
