What is the recommended number of Blocks per bag ?

Since we would be Molding, we want it very strong. I have heard and read lots of mixed figures such as 35-Blocks, 40-Blocks and some even say 50-Blocks per Bag.

We might be low on Funds BUT that doesn't mean we are willing to Compromise on Quality.


Also what's the recommended way of paying Bricklayers and Block Molders - is it per block (with regards to bricklayer) or per bag (with regards to block Molder) ?

Location is Atan Ota, in Ogun state

Abeg experienced Heads should stone me a Response quick quick.

thanks

It all boils down to the properties of the aggregate materials used to achieve that number per bag and still maintain the desirable strength of the block.

Every number you hear is correct and achievable given that the moulder understands the job to be done.
Be it 6" or 9", ensure that the blocks moulded for foundation(sub structure) is less in quantity to that used for super structure per bag.

The layout is okay.
Did you make changes to the design plan you posted previously for criticising?

It all depends on the type of sharp sand in your area.
For my clients who incorporated moulding of blocks as part of my work in the construction work I do;
For a particular type of sand
9"........25/32 (foundation/upper level)
6".........30/40 (same)

When I'm mixing 2 different types of sand.
9".........30/35
6".........35/45.

It appears you have a close relationship with the architect.
He can better his designs.
I can't imagine running a 4 bedroom apartment and no lobby/passage to shed off even if its just one room from direct eye sight.

Like you said earlier, he's on NL following the comments. You'll see that a couple of persons have dropped suggestions based on its design. He should be able to deduce it and I'm sure not everyone's comnent is completely out of place.

It's very simple.
Let him make the necessary adjustments on the ground floor.
Then he can do same on the upper floor and try to create a lobby/passage to access any room and be off direct eye sight.

There's nothing wrong in buying land in an estate. It all depends on the clauses attached to it.
I don't understand the bolded.

Can you please drop your Mobile so I give you a call ?

Need to understand what you mean by "It all depends on the type of sharp sand in your area. " ?
I believe i can go to where they sell Sharp sand and tell them I want to buy Sharp Sand or if there's a Particular type you can tell me, I will ask them for it.

Referring to this phrase "mixing 2 different types of sand" , Can you kindly list the 2 different types of sand you mix ?


Also reading one of Spyder's numerous posts, I saw a place He made use of only 6-inch Block to build an entire building. Though he made a very important reason why he used that instead of 9-inches for Foundation and 6-inches for the rest.
