3 bedroom bungalow or duplex please be specific

The prices of materials are a bit high... including the price of cable.

Where is your location?

I even thought those prices of cables were too cheap. 16mm for 700 naira per yard. I think
Coleman sells 1.5mm for about 10k or so. Purechem 8k..

Hamthablow:
Good evening builders in the house, please from the attached roof plane can you please tell me the size in square meter and the cost of roofing with 0.55mm Metecopo Aluminium?

Cost of your aluminium covering depends on your woodwork.
Although I can't see the drawing clearly, its estimated to cost between 700-800k.

Udometuk5103:
Please can someone advise me on how to go about iron roofing trusses on a small block of 16.5*11.5 sqr metres?

You would be using angle irons for rafters and Z-purlins as purlins.
A quote would require more details.

no sir price is low now.. 1.5mm is 5k

Can you share little Infor in regards to how the diegester works, without evacuation. Does it have any mechanical system in it.

Reply: The system does a fast separation of solid and liquid... The Digester is two layers 1. The upper layer where the all degradable material are been digested
2. Lower layer where the water is been filter and go out to the pit created for dry land and drainage or canal for high water level....

The upper layers consist of fibre which create micro-organism in thousands that feed on the waste while the lower layer consist of filters that make the water going out odourless and environmental friendly....

Note: sewage Diegester does not produce gas

Call Engr. Taiwo 07066474055 M&E consultant

PrinceLat:


So far so good, this sounds interesting on "the surface", can you please explain further in clear terms the advantages of this Diegester over the popular septic tank.

Some of us are at this stage, a better alternative would be welcomed.

Cost comparison too, should suffice , every available information should be shared here for all to make informed decision.

And please don't forget to tell us what happens after 25 years.

By the time you're done, you won't be asking us to call you, if you succeed in convincing us........ We would be the ones to ask for your details and introduce you to our friends as well.

Thanks

Reply: Advantage of sewage Diegester
1. No odour
2. No evacuation,
3. Little space required
4. Cheaper than the spetic tank

Disadvantage
The use of condoms and sanitary pads.. But if it is for hotel we have another design for that..

Note : 25years is just the warranty we are giving, the Digester can be effective more than 50year.. If we are to do any maintenace from the little little particles create over the years we just have to remove the slab and change the fibre.....

Thanks

Good evening every engineer in the house

Can someone explain this to me please

This is good to know. So what are the parameters or intervening variables one would need to calculate settlement outcomes?

A detailed soil test with at least one borehole point of not less than 30m deep, soil samples taking from this borehole is then taken to the lab to estimate the cohesion and angle of friction for each soil strata (layers). Together with the structural design, the settlement can then easily be estimated.

If I walked into your office with my structural drawings and location, can you then calculate the degree of settlement?

Yes, sir. Provided you also have a detailed soil test.

When I read your response, with this knowledge, I went through my various structural drawing plans but no where is the rate of settlement included in the drawings.

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]It was not included due to the fact that settlement was not assumed to be of critical design criteria. This is true for most shallow pad footings resting on relatively coarse soil with little clay content and load but for a massive shallow foundation like a raft footing where the settlement of the settlement is as important as the bearing shear such calculations are actually included.

I would think, this information should be included in the structural drawings that would go through certification.

It is not compulsory for most certification needed for most building approval sir

We have seen beautifully executed building suffering untoward settlement over time which tells me corners have been cut. This information tell me, untoward settlement can be avoided with due diligence.

We have seen beautifully executed building suffering untoward settlement over time which tells me corners have been cut. This information tell me, untoward settlement can be avoided with due diligence.

It can be avoided if the appropriate design considerations are assumed and adequately check against during the foundation design stage. All building settled but there is a limit to which such settlement impaired on plumbing, electrical, or other functionality( serviceability problem) or totally unfit to use ( Ultimate limit state). I always check against settlement for all the isolated pad footing of a foundation over expansive clay to know the differential settlement of the pad ( uniform settlement is more desirable than a differential settlement for pad footing). For a raft footing, it is compulsory to check settlement for the foundation.

Good evening every engineer in the house

Can someone explain this to me please

Well.

That's an unpriced bill.

You're expected to quote for it using the detailed explanation of works (on the left) and the quantities (right).

Add your fees, contingencies and arrive at a total sum.

Eg.
Item E.
600mm thick paving stone laid on......... Etc

308m²

The question is how much would you do 1m² of paving block.? Let's assume it's 550 naira per paving block.

Draw 2 lines in front of the table, label the first *RATE (N)* and the second *TOTAL (N)*

under rage write 550, under total write 169,400 (ie 550 x 308).

Do that for all items.

Add your supervision fees, VAT, contingencies etc

*Final Note*

Your rate should include materials and labour cost

For Item F.

1. How much would you charge to produce 1m of Kerbs (you'll be given the design or propose one)

2. The Kerbs must pass a concrete test (cube test) after 28 days to the required strength stated in the bill.. Ie 21Nsqm

3. How much would you charge to install the kerb per meter.

4. Add profit and attendance

5. What's the total cost of production and installation??

Multiply your total cost to produce 1m of Kerbs by 17m (total length needed)

Goodluck

Where is your land located... Obviously from the quote it shd be Ajah, Lekki or any other waterlogged area.

Can you share the plan

Note.. Doesn't look excessive for a waterlogged land.

From quick approximate calculations.

16mm of 1 tonne is OK.

10mm of 50 length is short, I got about 105 lengths using 1200mm raft height and 250c/c (ask him for the raft height and spacing he plan to use - anything less is not ideal)

12mm - what does he need it for? If it's for German floor matt, he shd use 10mm at 175mm spacing and buy 1 tonne.

1by12 by calculation I got about 140 pcs without waste, so buy 160pcs instead of 200pcs.

I'm OK with others...

Note... The workman's quote is sincere. I'll advice you give him the job.

Goodluck

U should rather be asking what he needs 16mm for in a bungalow?

If u are building a bungalow, why am i seeing 16mm when u can use 12mm?
