Hi Guys,
Thanks for always.
Please the below is what I have as quote for parapet
Estimated expenses
Cement = 60 bags - 150
Iron ➕ workmanship = 160k
Wood ➕ workmanship = 200k
Granite 15 tonnes = 75k
Sharp Sand 15 tonnes = 21k
Labour = 50k
Totalling = 656k

I guess it's good.

This quotation is a bit ok but you can still negotiate for better rate.

More so I have what we called semi cast in-Situ which is very strong and lesser what we usually use is iron plate formwork.
I have done some for member here.
You can reach me on 08066619493

Thanks. But does it mean that if 9" are used, then there wouldn't be the need to extend the columns to the first floor?

No please...

You definitely need to extend them to the first floor....

Think of a column as a rectanglar table with four legs at the corners, The weight of the table (self weight) and the object on the table (roof) is transferred to the floor through the legs acting in compression. In this case the legs can be considered as columns.

Hence you definitely need columns at the upper floor to effectively transfer your roof load/ beam load to the foundation

Pls experts in the house, I want to know what's the structural implication(s) of a slightly misaligned column at the ground floor lintel level of a duplex building. Assuming other columns are aligned well. Thanks. Am asking because I read some comments on this tread on that issue but nothing was said on its implications on the building.



Well, it depends on the misalignment; a picture will help to understand better or you repost the comment you read to get it right.

Setting one block in Lagos is N55 1,700 x 55 =93,500
In some places in Nigeria setting is about 100 to 105 block bricklayer N3500 and services N2500 daily
So N6,00 for 100 to 105 blocks
1700/105 = 16.5 ( 16.5 x 6000=98,000)
You are looking at about 100k

I would suggest introducing lintels. It will cost you a bit extra but your building will be the better for it.
