Good day gurus in the house and friends in diaspora. Please I'm monitoring a project for a friend who lives abroad. They just concluded the DPC and are working on the block work of the ground floor of the duplex.
While the plan shows the wardrobe position to be demarcated with blocks, the supervisor thinks block work for wardrobe is unnecessary and out of fashion. I am confused as my friend is a rigid person who might want to see his plan executed the way it was drawn unless if I could be convinced otherwise.
Now the question is, is it really out of fashion to build the wardrobe wall with blocks?

The honesty you have displayed here in asking this question. I will advise you adopt that honesty in asking the owner of the house which one he'll prefer, because at the end it all boils down to what the owner likes. What i know is that the block idea eats more room space than without the block idea.

That's it and that's it all!!! It allows for flexible floor arrangement. Not that it ties the block together. But to me it's not necessary because, it's a cost bearing practice that can be excused. I can do it all around the external walls, but for the internals it a no for me.

Besides if I want to change door locations, I ca. Just do a short 5 inch thick slabs above the new door locations.

Like lintel all around, not just on doors and widows gaps/bridges.To tie all the blocks together.

Hajji M.

If you say tie the blocks all round for bungalow thats correct. but for duplexes, why tie all blocks together? What about the Deck beam?

TerryE:

Oga skimanski, the best is to separate the soil and waste chamber from each other when running the external pipes. I normally be on bricklayers neck when doing the chambers. There are some plumbers that run the soil and waste pipes into the same chamber and no demarcation. I have done some corrections for many clients. The last I did was in ajah area, the sitting room, dining were smelling to the extent that they can not entertain/welcome visitors. We opened all the chambers and discovered all waste water pipes and soil pipes were run in the same chamber without demarcation. We separated all the waste water pipes from the chambers and use magic waste in some of the wash hand basin in order to retain water to prevent odour going back to the house. The pictures shown above by mank1234 can also work, it retain water and prevent odour from going back

@Topsy23. Trust me when i say it. the soil and waste line we completely separated. Sealed and before been covered. There is no way one will smell unto the other.

Hello my brother. I raised the concern of odour when Septic Tank and soakaway are connected together as Hajji mentioned. Can you please provide a schematics of how the vents should be placed on each pipe for each chamber and also any other place the vent should be located. Thsnks

Sorry for the delay. I could finally get the Pictures from our project on how the Vent thing close to the IC is done. Kindly find below
