Well done. If I may ask how can describe the foundation adopted? Any reason for reinforcement?



-------
Good speed!
Its a Strip Pad Foundation. The Reinforcement is an idea to ensure the Connection of all Columns Together.

very enlightening, thank you.
@ bolded, dont you use T joints and the rest with henco ? or do you mean on a straight run
Henco Piping has a Junction Location where All the Channels meet. Hence no need for Tee and Bends. That Location will be Opened for access when needed .

allCopacetic:
I see the ppr pipes are laid for the hot water lines as well, how do they compare with the henco brand for the same application, in terms of cost and advantage ?
In terms of pricing the hencp pipes are more expensive. But the decision to use any of the two depends on the contractor or client. They are both reliable but for different reasons. The strength of Ppr lies in the fact that it has a thick strong layer and joints are not threaded on glued, instead they are fused together. Why henco strength lies in the fact that its flexible and can run its direction with out a joint. It's flexibility also protects it from impact.

In terms of labour cost for installation. Henco cost less because you basically just have less joints to put together unlike Ppr. But the later makes up for that by been cheaper in terms of material requirement.

So Action Film Dey go on for here Gahn Gahn!!! and I no even Know. Where our great leader Oga mufutau55 to come and calm everyone down. I can see Insults flying everywhere. No one should Blame OP ooo. He has done a great Job in Bringing this Thread. it just means that by the time we are on Page 10, some people would have learnt a Lot. Besides he just made mention of Common mistakes he feels should be taken care of. If you know you have already taken care of that as an architect. Good for you, if not, then Learn to.

All these Issues about Quacks are the only ones that Make Silly Mistakes. Not only those Hungry Draftsmen that are quacks. There are many so called professional Architects that Make silly Architectural Blunders or do not think Through the Process of Building before deciding on Design Directions. I Bow my head for the ones that have done it in the Industry. They are worth Celebrating.

Meanwhile all these people that comment with the Claim of one Big Degree or the Other. Can we just comment without Adding our So called Great Degree in this Field or the Other. We all get degree, and if we say make we dey Put Degree for Ground, We will never move forward. Besides where was our Degree when Architects were designing the Civic Center and that new NestOil Building in Akin-Adesola Road in VI. If you want to talk Degree maybe you should post any of your Unbelievable MasterPieces that stands out from the Rest, then People can Take you serious. So lets forget Degree, we all are still Learning.

My Take on the Issue of On realistic Designs is, Nigeria has to learn to Dream Big. so if the Dreams do not scare you, then they are not Big Enough. Not all Clients are ready for you to push your boundaries so you can Draw to the Clients Desire but always be a Little Above the Clients Expectation, so as not to stall the growth of you Creativity due to the Economy affecting the balance between what Clients dream and what they want. However, if you have the Opportunity to go crazy, Please Go as Crazy as much as you can. do not let anyone stop you, it might be among your few opportunity to break new grounds. Give the Structural Engineer the task/Headache of trying to make your Design realistically Possible, that might even help his professionalism. Have a talk with him/her. Give him your Ideas on how you think it will be possible, let him figure it out. At the end you guys can reach a Middle ground and we have a Good design. Lets not get Nigeria Stalked in the Past. Architecture is Breaking New Ground Daily. I am not sure the Word Unrealistic Comes up overseas. I am sure if Some1 in Nigeria had brought up the Idea of Eiffel Tower to be built in Nigeria, all the People with so many Educational Degrees will say its Unrealistic and a waste of Money. why build something that is Unrealistic or something no one will leave in. Today that Master Piece rakes in as Much Money to France as our Current Crude Oil Situation, and it does that by just been and Architectural Piece. Nothing Else.
