The 1 meter rule is above the head course and not the roof height. The roof height (loft space) is a redundant space.

what is depth of the tank stand foundation?
thanks.

Senator Sani is just a stack illiterate! how can a sane man blame fasola when terrorist keep bombing the gas line every day?

u people should stop trying so hard to defend the indefensible... what abt the dams?
where they attacked as well?
a lawyer as minister of power was a wrong move..
PMB should have compensated fashola for his through other means..
electricity is a basic necessity for any country to develop...

It's only online that men are sole providers and women don't marry struggling guys.

But in real life, poor people are married. And more are getting married every single day. Even if it means coming online to beg for money to help feed their new triplets that the wife just dropped.

In real life wives hustle and husbands hustle and even then the money is still not enough. I wonder where these sole providers are.

In real life men don't want to marry financial leeches. They almost always go after someone who can contribute .

Are we talking about Nigeria or another country?

People should try to be honest for once and stop parroting things they have no proof of.

Just as there are those who will marry for money, there are also those who will marry poor as long as the other person has the potential of being a good spouse.

Such a thinly veiled woman-hating thread. Nairaland would have shut down by now if a lady created this thread to say unnice things about men. They would be evil feminists going on man-hating spree.

life issues are discussed and treated in of majority...
every president of a country get's into power on of majority. but it doent mean everyone voted the president.
when people say Nigeria is corrupt, it doesn't mean there are no honest people in nigeria.
when people say nigeria is hard, it doesn't mean we dont have people living comfortably.
the number of women marrying older and more wealthy men largely outweighs that of men. since we all know that majority have the day, makes the op right.

it is natural thing... most women aren't even the same age as their man...fact.

The rule of thumb is 1 meter minimum above the level of the installed water heater. Mind you, water heater is normally installed close to the ceiling about or above the height of the lintel level. So if you did three courses (coaches) after lintel. your water heater may be higher than someone who did two courses after lintel because you have a higher headroom. So if you now follow the specification of such person with two courses, you may have water pressure problem because your level is higher.

Another reason to follow the 1 meter rule is the need to benefit from maximum tank capacity use. How? if your water tower is not high enough, you will only have good water pressure only if your tank is full and once your tank is half full, no pressure

is the 1 meter above the head course of the building or roof height? e.g building height 3m, then tank stand 4m?

You're not lying cause someone quoted me N1.2 milla for a bungalow in Ibadan

1.2m is outrageous for a bungalow.
how much more will one add to that to complete the building.

Water Tower can be fabricated from wrought iron or bricks and mortar. On balance bricks and mortar is more expensive but more stable in of health and safety. But wrought iron if properly done can also meet the health and safety concerns.

Take a look at the pix below: Pix A was done by Spyder880 and displayed here on nairaland for 280K. The material used is popularly called H-Beam. I think N280K is a very decent cost and I think maybe Spyder880 didn't include labour cost. Please note that for a perfect water pressure for a storey building is 40ft minimum. In Warri Delta State, the H-Beam for 40ft can set you back over 500k easily. Also in Pix A notice the cross bar [x] in the construction. This is for greater stability for distribution of load. Some iron benders do cut coners and undercut the cross bar. So if you decide on this please note this and the minimum height of 40ft. Don't be convinced to do the popular 30ft.

Pix B is galvernized pole cheaper than H-Beam and if properly done will give you the same output in safety and longitivity as the H-Beam. Notice in pix B that no cross bar........not recommended. In Warri, this will set you back about 300k or more i.e 40ft not 30ft.

If you decide to cast the column, you can use the "redundant" space for generator room, dog kernel, storage or even security man's room. All you need do is wall deck and floor the ground space and voila! you have a useful room.

thanks alot... i really do appreciate this.
but for a bungalow, is there any specified height?

Good day all. Please I need help to know a fair price for architectural drawing with seal for 2 units of 3 bedroom flat. If you have done this before, can you tell me a price range? What will be the added cost for a structural drawing? Thank you.

there is no fixed price sir... it all depends on the grade and personality of the architect.

renowned architects will definitely charge more than graduate architect.

with seal, it can range from 50k to 550k. these are the ones i have seen. it could be less or higher.

tevanso:
just columns no block

thanks...

tevanso:
no sir,see example below

i really appreciate this... God bless u.
but that means i won't be needing blocks? is it just going to be only columns?
as regard cost, which is more expensive btw this method and iron rods.
thanks.

tevanso:
bro use reinforced concrete, the iron rod will corrode with time ,but reinforced concrete will last longer

thanks alot sir...

but it is a storey building, wouldn't height be a barrier?

greetings to the house...
i want to erect a stand for my tank, which is better between using blocks and iron rods?
will be glad if anyone can provide a link on stand for GP tanks.
thanks.

tevanso:
in frame structures ,the blocks are not load bearing ,just serving as cover for the building,d reason it's not advisable to use 6inches blocks is because the beam and columns will be designed as 9inches,using 6inches won't match the sizes of d beams and columns

i really do appreciate all your inputs.. if anyone of u is still single and searching, my beautiful daughters are available...

Thanks...

to engineers and everyone in the house. of what advantage it is doing a framed structure, i.e using only pillars and beams before placing blocks and doing the normal pillars and block setting. i really want to know if can use 6 inches block in place of 9inches for a duplex adopting the frame method. thanks all..

Wife Beater Spotted!!

cococandy:

Of course.

Because he's helping you spread your misogyny.
Well all this na internet talk.

Y'all should go out there and look for females to beat up and slap. Let's see how many of you will survive it.
All you do in come online and spread hate for women and for violence.

u couldn't have said it better
this johnson232 of a guy is a pathetic misogynist

all he does is to go about spreading hate for women
i have seen some of his posts, all hating on women.

DollyParton1:
Seriously I don't understand the motive behind this thread. It is just what it is..... Misogyny!!!

u couldn't have said it better.
i have been on this thread for some minutes, and all i see is misogyny. how come women are now suddenly the ones responsible for domestic violence?

the op is not even limiting it to the family, but violence in general!

op's misogyny is something else.

i have seen some of his posts. too many misogynist these days on NL, hence the increase in domestic violence.

EgunMogaji:
