elijah101: There are different units of measurement namely: metre, feet, yard, inches cm, etc..... They are not the same but you can convert from one to another and vice versa |

elijah101: Good one, First : Linear means "a straight line" so it simply means 1meter ( like 3.28 ft =1meter) it mean just I straight line of meter not considering other sides of the object. Linear foot means the same thing too. The normal one foot that is 12inches. hope this will be helpful. DUBEMCAPITAL |

Good morning sirs and madams, I was having a discussion with a client from here and he wondered if there is a way to bypass screeding completely to save cost and that put me in research mode in trying to find a solution to a problem and create opportunity from it. Since the main objective of this thread is to gain more knowledge and information (even though we have to sometimes stylishly advertise our products and services as we have bills to pay ), I was able to read up on some quality works from scholars. I think it's possible to include inert powdery materials at the plaster mixing stage to fill up the void spaces in the plaster. It would include the fine powder, redispersable powder binder to compensate loss of strength on addition of extra aggregate and self leveling agent to improve workability of the render. This will give a more denser and durable plaster with low porosity, surface smoothness that can't be achieved with cement and sand only and a lighter dry plaster. I'm willing to make samples available for any builder or engineer here for application in a small portion like security house or any free available space. Since the setting time is high, the surface can be finished with trowel wet with water while its still setting and workable to give surface similar to screeding. Cost in labor and materials for screeding would have been greatly reduced and a more stable and durable plaster with good bonding with paint would have been achieved. 6 Likes |

gbadexy: This is a welcome idea and research. It’s only now that most wall required well prepared finishings like SCREEDING in the few decades ago when real meason knows there work to the fullest, then they do sieve sand to give well smooth plastering without any contour. But now what do we see shabby work every where only few listen to advise and follow instruction given at site now. All they are after now money money money. 4 Likes |

RedMapleConsult: darenyx: Certainly not true! I did TWO plots for #350K in Lagos recently and they initially asked for #200K per plot. Some actually do it for as low as #150K per plot. Just say that YOU cant do it for that amount, not that others cant do it for that amount or even less. I know your association upped the price about a year or two ago but that does not means some members who are reasonable and flexible will stick to that exorbitant directive. And this is a Registered Surveyor that l had known for over two decades when survey was #50K/plot so the issue of "wrong hands" is a red herring. 3 Likes |

AngelicBeing: We all do. Our brother loves Wild Dogs, imports everything from Lowes Stores in America, loves then hates Brabus, has fought with almost everyone on this thread and it is always his way or the highway. but he's a good crack though and not to forget that he loves PowerBike like a Redneck. I dont think we need to mention his name since he has deactivated that username and now posts under a new one. #OkoAfusa for El Presidente. 4 Likes |

Daboomb:Hian, Hmmmm, Trump, Vladimir Putin Theresa May and all the G_7 leaders called me not to unveil the moniker, so I will be expecting him to do it himself, but he has made 2 post here in this same thread in the Month of March 2019, he asked a question and one person answered him, ok, enough of my clues, let me look for fresh fish pepper soup and my Jack Daniels, let's get back to talking construction and how to reduce costs in the building process |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by SlimChay: 6:20pm On Jul 10, 2019 |
gbadexy:yea you can evade screeding but as regards the painting, you'd need Matt emulsion. Matt has the neccesary fillers inbuilt to cover the roughages. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by gbadexy(m): 6:33pm On Jul 10, 2019 |
SlimChay:You can decide to apply matte alright but the plaster would have to be smooth Even at that, it would have to be primed for better outcome. I'm talking of real smooth wall that your fingers can glide over smoothly and that silk, satin and matte can be applied on. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by SlimChay: 6:37pm On Jul 10, 2019 |
gbadexy:Yea. You're right. I alluded to the paint needed on the idea of not screeding. Matte will do the work. |
