We build not only for safety but also for economy. The main purpose of applying nylon is to retain concrete from sipping through the gaps in the formwork thereby reducing wastage of concrete.

I knew this when I was in primary one.
Our conc was safe while casting this.. we know of other beta option, don’t ask me this ...
Any way others leaner can find the lesson useful.
Thanks for your time here

I love the way you handle yours sir. What of if the customer is one off person (buy and go). Like something that happened to me, a customer called me and he ordered for cables and he promised to pay on delivery . He said people have suped him in the past. Well I took the risk and delivered the cable to him. He said the road to the site is very bad and that I should come to a bus stop. He confirmed the quantities and it was ok. He log in to his online banking pretending he wanted to transfered money to me not knowing that he was busy playing game on his phone . After some minutes he said the transaction completed and I will see alert because it's an inter bank transaction.

I left the place hoping that my account would be credited some minutes. I waited several minutes hours, days , weeks, months . He later change his line and couldn't reach him anymore. He's a visitor on nairaland. He told me his name is O.J. Till today OJ's number is not going . Tye total cost of cables is 867,000.

Wow this is serious.
There should be a protection for both client and vendors here.

Our new Benin project update and link coming soon

Watch out for the link of this project
But here are some pics of the project

I want to ask, why didn't you apply DPM before concrete pouring for the slab. Secondly I can vividly see honeycombs in your columns what could be the cause?

Dpm on upper slab( decking) is not necessary or compulsory in construction.
It’s only necessary/ compulsory where dampness May occur such as foundation level or the likes

Austinosconst:
Always try to use stretcher or English bond for your block laying. This is wrong.

All our blocks are Always BOND, try check others panels/ walls and see
What you see there is not wrong.
The bond you mentioned can’t work here.
Either Flemish bond, header bond etc can’t fully work on this aspect of block setting on this portion.
And all the holes of the block seen there was filled up with concrete, means crack can’t occur on the joint.

Watch out here for more finishing work pics

TEQ365VENTURES:
Good afternoon to all professional builders in the house. I’ve been following this thread silently for some time and I must confess it has really helped Novice like me to know things about building.

My architect just finished drawing a 4 beds duplex plan for me and I would like professionals in the house to help me Go through it and identify any error if there is any. Thanks

Land size: 50x44 feet

Good design, your arch really utilized the space very well.
But for you to have a good usage of the space on ground floor ask him to work on this areas

1. The entrance ante room door 4ft , the bigger side of the door 3ft should be in left side of the entrance and the 1ft side to be in entrance of the sittingroom area , if not the bigger side of the door will create a problem while using it.(CHECK THE BLUE CIRCLE MARK

2. Let the stair wall align with the dining wall to have straight grid line on that BLUE CIRCLE MARK .

3 .The toilet under the stair should be well arrange when doing the mech drawing if not there will be a serious problem of headroom height in part of the stir while using it, also let the toilet door open inward the room against inward the toilet as you have it there. ... BLUE CIRCLE

4. Your kitchen store is JUST TOO NARROW at 700mm (just 2.3ft) it will be useless in usage it’s better to reduce from the room size there and add such to the kitchen in other to have good usage store. This is not mini flat

Waiting for the slab to gain strength

Thank you all for your time here

I need help with this sir.
i usually pump water into the water tank and whenever it fulls then i switch off the pumping machine. Before the next day, there will be no water running inside the house again. I dont know what is really wrong. And when i pump it again. In less than 24hours. The water wil not run inside the house again untill i pump. I dont know how the water in the tank is getting dry or leaving the water tank

In a simple summary, there is a leakage somewhere.
