Still from the uncertified Builders Week

Here’s something cool from the conceptdesignarchitect.com

THE ARTFUL RENDER MASTERCLASS

You can grab this course for $497 pere or do $170 in 3 installments.

I got this for my licensed but inexperienced junior architects as a resource to expose them to modern design practices.

Wait, who is this loose cannon?
Where did you fall from?

Oh I see... You are one of the quacks parading as professional. That explains why you sound so pained.

Pls drop your contact number, let me check something.
Abi you don’t like to collect jobs as an untrained and unlicensed QS?

No wonder you’re equating yourself to artisans and unskilled labor. No difference actually.

Na them!

P.S: Drop your digits let’s help your career offline.

I'd really like to know who exactly you are and what is your profession and certification. If you can't respond to this then certainly you're also a quack

I am maybe a quack with a B.Tech, PGD, MSc and MBA degrees all in engineering/construction related fields.

In my early years in this thread one of your likes have put up such childish attitudes. Try not to make me play that game again.

If you're looking for people to toy with find someone else. I don't tolerate careless words.NL is not an authority over my kind of person.

You want to help me with a job.....please how much did you pay the last person you gave a job..............let me use that as a yardstick to see how well you could assist me!!!!!

Today na licensing day

To all of us (Pro, Pro Max, licensed and cowboys) using unlicensed and[b] illegal immigrants from Benin Republic[][/b] on our projects , I wish us a Happy Builders Week!

I knew what to expect from this end so I’m not surprised at all.


In the other news, let me share with you what me and over 40,000 baba latis around the world learnt today from the sustainable interior design week.

New knowledge of passive and sustainable house design gained.

I got exposed to new tools that makes designing for sustainability as easy as pie.

Which one be that oooo you this guy. I think say na open border big brother Naija the play always lol joor.

Hmm! Yet the immigration always go after these guys. I’ve been working with them for almost 2 decades and I know they’re soft targets for the immigration boys.

On the flip side, when are we going to start using govt certified labourers?

Do we have any report from the 2021 Builders Week?

What are the new in-roads? Last year was a jamboree and a colorful event

Highlights of 2020 Event:

- visit to Oba of lagos
- professional perspectives of the first builder in Nigeria
- carrier** talks

Here’s a great tool for architects, builders, designers and integrators to help you design sustainable buildings.

Climate Consultant


You could buy stone-coated roofing tiles and still live in discomfort. The dysfunctional construction industry had little or no idea about materials and elements and their effect on buildings. A lot of people see materials and designs in a basic way.

Climate consultant is an app that helps you generate datas/decisions that can help you clients avoid discomfort.


May I ask “How did you arrive at your decision to use gypsum as your ceiling covering?” “Your friend had it in his house” “It’s luxury and match your taste ” or “The architect recommended it”

Have you heard about embodied carbon? How about operational carbon?

In today construction landscape, we have dysfunctional industry problem and bad materials problem. The latter is worse than the former.

We just do things irrationally “as the spirit led.”

As a Structural Engineer, I doubt if all these contemporary designs are suitable for our weather conditions here... Structural Engineers already for see wind load in their design according to the wind speed in the area.. so the need for Climatic consultant already taking care of ..

I like being realistic... Are all the glass house really good for house owners in Nigeria with this level of insecurity... and lack of data base for all Nigeria..

Oga N3xt... The designs are good and mouth watering... But ..are they suitable for us in Nigeria.. consider Wind storm that happens in the north.. level of insecurity too..

My 2 cents Engr..Gbenga...NSE/Coren. ....

Bros.. Please.. let us cool down our temper always when addressing issue..

Proffessionally is wrong.. in the rule book of NSE.. it is not allowed to use insulting words at your fellow professionals either in the presence of clients or in open forum like this..

There is nothing wrong in person calling for professional Certification.. is what we do normally on construction sites...

Apart from the baba latis.... we even professionals steal our jobs... for example, a n Engineer doing job of QS... or QS drawing architectural drawings..

Way forward... All we can pray for is God to keep us busy as professionals.. there are quacks everywhere in different fields... The country too is not helping.. the proffessional bodies that are suppose to enforce professionalism on site are just ready to collect annual dues from members...

But .. two wrongs to make a right..

We need to support each other... ( The Proffessional)


My 2 cents.. Engr. Gbenga ... MNSE, RCoren

Designing sustainable building is not just about the structural design but everything else including the materials used for the building.

If you find yourself relying on artificial lighting, then you’ll have a higher energy cost.

We actually discussed what you said here “Structural Engineers already for see wind load in their design according to the wind speed in the area..” in the class. Many architects and designers feels the backend stuffs are process that the client do not need to know about and we were encouraged to use datas to show our clients why certain decisions are made in our designs.

Security is no issue bro. There are thousands of smart solutions out there to explore.
I love this quote from the class “Buildings are the problem but they are also the solution.”
Naija is not an exception, let’s stop making naija look like it’s another planet my honorable Oga.
If you don’t know it, Broking House is in Ibadan for almost 4 decades and nothing has happened to it. It’s an ALL glass building.

The world is constantly evolving and interestingly we are going to keep building, if we are going to keep building with the same strategies and materials, how do we know ensure we are designing buildings that’ll respond to ever changing climatic conditions.

I have atrium designed in my current build not because I just wanted to have fun but improve indoor health - least emission, indoor plants etc

Naija building industry is filled with people who just want to take in (stone-coated roof, pop ceiling, spanish tiles, concrete flooring, upvc windows etc) and not to give back. Yet we wonder why we die.

Regarding the deciduous tree in your diagram, most won’t know mine are specifically planted where they are

My MaiGuard had originally planted them just anyhow and when I came in from the abroad we had to replant.

XL6 Trillion | Atrium House by NextHome

I made this tools to solve a particular problem during shuttering of columns, beams, and even lintels. It is made with a reusable and sustainable material.

Watch how it’s used here https://www.kobocity.com/d/157-construction-journal-xl6-trillion-atrium-house-by-nexthome/39

Shuttering starts tomorrow.

This is why I keep kwayet.

I’m very minimalistic so for me “less is more”. Not really a fan of too much flash. Am I watching TV or a trance inducing light show?

Some Nigerian private homes be looking like the inside of a night club. I still don't understand.

/

rotecch77:


You nailed it sir,
Most of oldest building in the world comes with precast concrete facial/ parapet

/
I am not too sure about this. The Vietnamese have the patience of a tortoise. They handcraft these wall designs no matter how big the building. Their attention to details in such designs is out of this world. Those old buildings were built in a slow-paced era. It might not have been precast after all.

/

diordaves:


These are modular homes or prefab or what we are now calling precast. There is absolutely nothing wrong with prefab. Sometimes, prefab or modular build is a superior civil engineering design.

Dangote Refinary is a modular or prefab or precast design. Bet your money on it, it will be very much more effecient than NNPC, delivered at a far lower cost and cheaper to maintain in the long run. Parapet is not a structural membrane, so prefab (modular) should do just fine.

/
Prefab vs modular vs precast. You have to excuse us. Sometimes we use terms interchangeably.

In all, the right concrete mix is very important not necessarily the name. Some structures have regular steel bars while others have tensioned steel bars. There are some designs that cannot be handled by regular mom and pop builders.
/

megacontrol:
I like the fact that you've been an advocate for hiring professionals.

Can you and all the practicing builders here confirm they are dully registered with NIB/NSE/COREN or other bodies as the case may be?

Can all the dully registered professionals on this forum signify, provide their registration nos for verification and state the licensing body?

This might be a good place to start from.

/
Be wary of certificates. Some are just book smart.

Just saying. But it is a good start.

OGA N3XT.... YOU MAKE MY LAUGH IN SPANISH ....

PROFESSIONALLY I WOULD HAVE FINE YOU PROFFESIONALLY FOR YOUR STATEMENT ABOVE THAT "BROKING HOUSE IBADAN IS MADE OF GLASS"
* READ UP.. TYPES OF RENDERING OF TALL BUILDINGS.
THE TWO POINT I RAISED WAS
1, STRUCTURAL INTERGRITY OF A BUILDING SUBJECTED TO WIND LOAD WHICH HAE BEEN TAKING CARE OF ALREADY BY THE ENGINEER DESIGNING... SO BRING IN WEATHER CONSULTANT EXPERT YOU INTRODUCING IN YOUR WORKSHOP YOU ATTENDING IF OF NO USE IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION.

2, DUE TO SECURITY CHANLLEGES IN THE COUNTRY, I SAID USING OF BREAKABLE GLASS FOR BUILDING LIKE A STOREY BUILDING IS NOT ADVISABLE.. BECAUSE IT WILL BE EASY ACCESS FOR INTRUDERS IN NIGERIA.. DO ME ONE FAVOR, BUILD A GLASS SHOP IN IKORODU ROUND ABOUT FILLED WITH CEMENT.. I BET YOU.,, 24 HOURS IS TOO MUCH FOR IT TO BE VANDALISED BY HOODLUMS THAT NIGERIA GOVT HAVE NO DATA BASE FOR.


NIGERIA IS A DEVELOPING NATION... ONE EXAMPLE IS.......THERE ARE SOME OLD BUILDINGS WITH WOODEN SLABS.. WHY HAVE WE ADANCED TO RCC SLABS... THESE ARE THE KIND OF QUESTION I EXPECT FROM YOU..

THAT A BUILDING HAS A GLASS RENDERING DOESNT SAY THE BUILDING IS MADE OF GLASS. SEE THE PICS WELL.. YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE GLASS RENDING DID NOT START FROM THE FIRST 3 FLOORS.. ASK WHY??

STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS WORK IN BUILDING IS THE MOST ESSENTIAL IN REINFORCE CONCRETE STRUCTURES LIKE TALL BUILDINGS.. THERE IS CALLED "CORE"OF TALL RCD STRUCTURES. WITH THE CORE OF THE ABOVE BUILDING NOT PROPERLY DESIGNED BY A STRUCTURAL ENGINEER... THE FINISHING WORK OF USING GLASS IS OF NO USE....

OGA NEXT... I RESPECT YOU AS A CONTRACTOR WHICH YOU CLAIM.... BUT LEAVE THE PROFFESSIONALISM FOR THE PROFESSIONALS..

WE ALL NOTICED SOMETHING ON THIS TREND... THE PROFFESSIONAL ARE NOT REALLY GETTING JOBS... YOU KNOW WHY... WE ARE NOT TRAINED MARKETTERS... AND ALSO CANT TAKE NON SENSE FROM CLIENTS.. OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH CLIENTS IS WORST... AND WE BELIEVE THE JOB WILL FIND US... WHICH IS AFFECTING MOST PROFFESSIONALS... NOT ALL

BUT YOU A CONTRACTOR ... YOU ARE MORE THAN A TRAINED MARKETER.. YOU HAVE POSITIVE DISCUSSIONS WITH CLIENTS... AND SEE FROM CLIENT'S PERSPECTIVE... WHICH AT THE END IS AN ADVANTAGE..

LET ME STOP HERE....

can one build a four bedroom all en suite bungalow with two and half million or less? I'm doing a cost analysis and it's looking possible from my analysis. what's your views on that? i would give my analysis later after hearing some of your views. my labourers would be sourced exclusively from the north where labour is extremely cheap and the house would not include any fancy works. details later but lets hear your views first.

You fail to include
Type of roof?
Kitchen cabinet HDF and marble?
Window type casement?
Tiles type Nigeria ?
