malkomx: thankx boss..... |
Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by mexxy1(m): 3:27pm On Jul 12, 2020 |
malkomx: =N=3.3m from foundation to decking completion? This is very impressive. I know someone building a four bedroom duplex right now with same description as this, except he doesn't have an ante room but, has spent almost =N=5m according to him though, his building is longer. Nice job. |
Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by malkomx(m): 5:55pm On Jul 12, 2020 |
mexxy1:This is a sizable building. All the cost of construction of the suspended floor (decking) is 3.3M This does not include monies spent from foundation through DPC, Lintel to Deck-level block work. |

malkomx:How can one estimate the Quantity of iron bars for decking? |
Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by loffers(m): 6:13pm On Jul 12, 2020 |
malkomx: Great job. So how much was spent on the foundation and dpc. Also the block work and casting of lintel before the decking. |
Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by mexxy1(m): 12:26am On Jul 13, 2020 |
malkomx: Okay. I had thought that amount was from foundation. Keep up the good work. |

Milestone 3: We are up and running Let’s make up for lost time Block work + rebar extension

Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by malkomx(m): 9:42pm On Jul 13, 2020 |
joycluv:The size of your deck will determine the quantity of rebars While the load coming on the deck will determine the size and number of rebars for the beams. All these have been predesigned and shown with the bending schedule on your structural drawings Let a qualified engineer interprete your structural drawings for you and calculate the quantity of the various sizes of rebar and their correct positioning on your deck. Except you are a civil/structural Engr decking reinforcements is not a DIY affair |

What's the advantage(s) of using a DPM on a decking if the carpenter did a good woodwork underneath it? malkomx: |
Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by malkomx(m): 10:44pm On Jul 15, 2020 |
Lintel operations
|
Re: Developing A Four Bedroom Duplex In The Outskirts Of Owerri by malkomx(m): 11:02pm On Jul 15, 2020 |
chimexdnice1:Water in the right quantity as an integral component of concrete is as important as the cement used. No matter how tightly placed your wooden form work is, water will still leak through the joints. The wood itself has a high capacity to soak water. These will reduce the amount of water available for the complete hydration of the cement in the concrete mix The nylon we use as DPM serves two purposes namely: 1. Retains water in the concrete mix to ensure complete hydration of cement and proper non-brittle hardening 2. Helps preserve the wooden form work for future use since soaked wood will loose its strength as a result of water-induced fermentation. |
