| Type And Cost Of Bungalow Foundation In Okun Ajah Axis by Nudge(op): 5:17am On Dec 04, 2016 |
I have a plot of land in okun Mopo. It's the town just after okun ajah. The soil in both communities is the same. It isn't swampy, but it is loose and looks like beach sand on the surface. I intend to build a bungalow (12m x 8m). I have received various advices on the type of foundation I should do, and now I'm confused. Some have said I should do deep strip foundation, some same raft foundation with German floor and some others have said I should do pad footing. Those anyone have experience of constructing in that axis to please advise me on the type and cost of foundation I should do. I don't know a damn thing about construction, but I want the ground of my premises to be at least 2m higher than the surrounding environment to control inflow of flood water in future. |

Nudge:you need a raft foundation in that area. Using pad foundation wont be safe. Although some people may advice you to put beams to connect the pad, but dont take that risk. using a ground level of 2m is very strange. 2m is as high as a door. You should stick to a raft height of about 1.2 and still be okay, if you want something high. lets talk more via whatsapp or call. 07030367178. Am a structural engineer and i advice you to go for raft foundation. 1 Like |
