Looks like asbestos, but it is made of cement reinforced with fiber. It has different thickness but 6mm can conveniently serve. A Nigerite 1.2m x 2.4m board sells for around #7500. Attached picture was what convinced me.

The decking was being done when it rained last night, and the washed sand spots appears, my engineer is assuring me it has no implications on the work nor the decking structure but I am a bit sceptical. Is that true?

No issue. It's just the surface that the rain washed off the cement. It may even be more beneficial as the concrete will cure better before it dries.

But it appears level wasn't well taken.

The ensuite rooms i can understand, although having this now means you have to also have a separate visitors toilet. Its the ante room and high roof that completely befuddles me. undecided

I used to think the high roof allows for better room temperature

Hello professioals in this great house! having followed this thread from inception/long enough i believe its high time i started my project as a DIY enthusiast.

I humbly seek the support of amiable members of this thread in my new adventure. i have enjoyed great deal of privilege hereon as i read from professionals doing justice to questions and proffering solutions thereabout. Honestly, for as long as i av been around, this thread has been like no other.

Although, i had stints(out of love and curiosity) with few construction/property firms earlier in my career but couldnt reach the height i would have love to, as i have no root in civil/building engineering. i still admire builders any day any time.

I have drawn a sketch of my proposed simple and low-cost 2bedroom family apartment (picture attached). please feel free to scrutinise and correct as appropriate. Also i will welcome any suggestion on roof design as i have been divided in between pitch and gable designs in order to fall within budget without compromising aesthetics.

NB: If you find my attached drawing good enough it shows i have been taught/learning well , if otherwise then i need to be scolded and made to take subsequent classes more seriously.

Firstly I must commend you for the sketch and your drafting skill, that's a good one there

Now here are my thoughts
1) The position of the v.wc is not too great, because it has taken some Chunk out of the squareness of the living room, therefore effecting the schematic (flow) of the living room.

2)The second bedroom, it will be great if you leave it @ ensuite, since you have already made provision for vwc

3) The pantry: I am of the opinion that it will be ok if you swap it position with the exit/corridor, if the corridor is at the back end, it will give you the opportunity to have 90-270 ° view of the building with just been at the corridor and looking out, because the way it is set up currently, you will have to step out of the house, then walk your way to the backyard to see or know what's happening there.

4) For the roof, please consider Dutch Gable for it, since the design is a straight one without much set backs and shootings...

Attach is an example of how you can affix your vwc, for better flow and great furniture arrangements for your house

Yeah, Your drafting skill is a great one.
Just that there are some rudiments to follow in design. Some examples are cross ventilation of the bedrooms, clear separation btwn the public area and the semi private part and the private parts of the building.
You will need an architect for better and clearer interpretation of this dream of yours.
You can consult us @ OAK Group.

I know you follow me here (on NL)- I dont take that for granted.... send me a whatsapp message, I'll fix whatever is left in the amazing design you already have, you have a complete design and free consultation up to when your design is up by God's grace, plus if its in Lagos (I'm not promising because of my schedule) I could pay it a visit...

Goodluck
