Pack out of that house first before you seek for solution.

Nairaland is gone!!!

Ok

a lot of reasons
1. The building has aged badly
2. poor building materials and methods of construction
3. the most likely i can deduce from these pictures is that te foundation at that spot has eroded badly. check for any closeby septic tank or chamber or broken water supply pipes. Poor maintenance of chambers can allow water to leach into the foundation and and erode it.
4. If (3) above is not the case, pls pack out immediately. the building is too old and isnt capable of carrying the weight of the roof.

Cmeo:
Expansion, soil formation or error from the foundation

what’s the solution

educatedfool:
Builder go say We need 20 bags of cement una go say 20 too much mr. builder use 15 bags

Most times, bricklayers are the culprits. My nephew massively shortchanged me when we were doing foundation to the extent that I had to take the work from him and give it to outsider.

Cmeo:
Expansion, soil formation or error from the foundation

Exactly or could be plastered mud house

this could be caused by settlement in foundation, something somewhere under ur foundation could have caused the foundation to settle, it could be decayed tree root, water tru the foundation, termites etc. something else could also have caused it, so get an experienced engineer or builder to help check thoroughly

The corner of my room started cracking little by little some 3 or 4 years ago.. now it has gotten to this level. You can hear what the person at the other end is saying sometimes. It's so scary.

Every 30 minutes, I do hear sound of small sand particles falling off. Guys how can this be fixed and how much would it cost?

Treat as urgent house

Movement as result of failed foundation.

It's well... Anything printing us

The block used has no much cement.

The block contains more sand than cement.

In my opinion, move out from the building.

The foundation of that building is not strong.

The building might collapse some day. The house needs to be demolished.

Can you drop address so I can notify authorities to come with bulldozers and demolish that building

Your prompt response will be appreciated

Get a structural engineer, I no sabi.

Park out fast if you don't want the roof to land on your head.

This are majorly caused if were the house is built has log or big roots under the foundation, when the roots or log eventually gets rotten this is what you will notice.

Them dey see huzzle way I never first do..sometimes when people say I'm a keyboard warrior...I just laugh at them because they don't know what a real niggarrr have been through

I don first work as civil servant.....federal government staff to be precise

Unless you tell the story they won't know

iwaeda:

The tieing was wrongly done where the pillar was supposed to be casted. Shows no pillar is used and the roof weight is on the wall directly. No reinforcement. It was done by a bricklaye.

.
E better park out as soon as possible while he works on the building entirely. Na death trap as e dey so. May God protect you. Act fast. Imagine...in this T-P economy. O ga o

Omo, assuming street na tru tru military, rank for don full everywhere by now. LOL

Village people are involved

Could be due to many factors
(1)Low quality blocks.
(2)The bricklayer did not lock the blocks at angles.
(3)) The foundation footing (blinding) was poorly done.

farouk2much:
When you see this crack on a building... Two things involve.....
1-the plot is full with gold. Means you build on top of plenty gold....
2- you blocked road for jin/spirit or ghost......

Wait, are you serious about this?

Possible reasons
1) Poor Mixing Ratio
2) Poor foundational work
3) Bad blocks arrangements (alignment)
4) Settlement issues etc

Mediation; make a good opening on the portion, reinforce with M12 steel rods, casting

Baba this is a sign of serviceability limit state of a building for lasting solution of the fall part it need to be collected by what is called under- pining

Uneven settlement
