may God help usp

Gov Dave watch it

SmartProf:
Terrible...possible cause may include but not limited to; cheap labour, cheap & fake building materials, poor monitoring of site workers, terrible soil indices of the construction site, greed to build tower of Babel to gain more apartments without technical advise, non consultation of qualified hands but rather a foreman, no architectural plan nor resident architect & civil engineer on site. The government that should regulate all these, only end up having agents who will go and mark 'X' and inscribe 'stop work' on buildings being constructed....once they have been settled, you just go ahead with your construction cos I have never seen them return back to inscribe 'resume work' on such buildings. Nigeria has not gotten it right in anything so far.

wat I don't understand na by force to use parafet build hux ,the load of this parafet is times 2 of the hux .. mostly when socked with water

too bad

All these quack engineers. Why would he endanger the lives of others all bcs of his selfish interest. Some people won't make heaven

Slymonster:
This is obviously cheap ass material, looking at the building and how it collapsed

I didn't know we had Cheaper cement and granites in the market

Cheap doesn't have to do with quality but the quantity

if it takes you 4 years to build a hux of good quality even if not giant or not a might hux ,just take your time do am ,to build hux no be competition

No such thing as a quack engr.
Before u can be a certified engineer u pass standardized tests + practical experience in your respective field.

Mason's calling themselves engrs all over the place esp in he east and west are the reasons for the building collapse...

Go to areas where the practice is minimal and u hardly find building collapsing.

only in Nigeria we use both dangote cement for both concreteing and molding block ,dis country na wa ,we Don use our hand send innocent soul go grave

Sad

Too bad!

Don't try to wrrigle out of this one...
Everybody thinks the know all about construction that's why they fail to follow advice and hire certified engineers for their jobs

Putting ur 15m plus project in the hands of an artisan, u have urself to blame.

This is a clear cut case of poor or non existent supervision which or may not relate to a deficient structural design
Or hiring of quacks claiming to be engineers..

Blocks aren't structural members and are hardly ever load bearing...

What's ur point

This kind of nonsense is the rule in Nigeria. Substandard buildings and raising of illegal structures, them plenty for this my side self. They will now use it to block the gutters that is why this state always has issues with flood.

How do you think this old incompleted building will not collapsed? After all the rain, wind, and weathering it survive

Fake engineers in Nigeria obsolete universities

Good help us ooo.
Meanwhile are you living in Benin-city, Gra or Sakponba to be precise and your Children are at home whiling away time, why not call a home Lesson teacher, try me a Math teacher, my no is 09017656411

When it comes to the construction of storey buildings, soil test to determine the bearing capacity of the soil is very key, followed by the use of appropriate reinforcement, never you economize cement and then make use of the appropriate aggregates most especially coarse aggregate.

Do Nigerians hire architects, not to talk more of engineers.

One year...one block!

Wriggle out of what?
And what do you think I am, a musician?

I know what I said from looking at that structure and how it collapse. Any engineer that doesn't supervise his work when building more than one storey building, should bear what ever happen. It is your career at stake when the lawsuit start coming.

Help us God

From my own observation, i can deduce that the building collapsed due to substandard blocks used in the building construction, if you observe closely you will see that the block are brown and sandy in nature, whish interprets that the proportion of cement to sand is no proportional.

Quack's have hijacked the industry...

Cheers to the learned clients out there.

thesicilian:

Yeah, but it shouldn't end there. There should be an investigation into why it happened in order to prevent similar collapses in future. What if it had happened after it was completed and people have moved in?

ivestigation ke? in nigeria ?
