Around 200k if u intend using columns at d edges. It could be less or slightly more depending on d cost materials in your area. Don't forget to buy waterproof cement when doing d plastering.

Their approach maybe different from mine...taking into consideration d nature of your land...

Hi people,
Heard the water proof cement is mixed with the regular cement to plaster the ST walls. It's very good plus it comes in small bags.
