@cenas_j This Problem is very evident in Nairobi and Kiambu....You find a Developer who has a subcontractor with no Consultants...the works enรฐ up being shoddy and project is delayed for years....
@cenas_j ...Thats Ok....You will hire the local men to remove the Cotton from say...14m x 14m...to start the main house...and vary the accounts....they pay first before you start works...
@ArchitectMwangi Am a Building Contractor,And i must say,This is Probably the best workmanship i have seen this year...๐๐ to the team, so far so good...Whats the Roofing Finish?...Portuguese Tiles?...Stepped Fascia as well?
@Nashon_Tambo Well,Some Foremen are doing this without ,calling the resident engineer & M& E team,..one told me there was an incoming concealed gutter overhead...i made him break that column, Basically, the drain pipe inside a column considerably affects the column's weight carrying capacity,
@cenas_j I agree...Please do not touch the Zoning topic, its been abused blatantly....start at Ruai sewer xone... syokimau..Sabaki...Mlolongo towards Machakos junction...you will notice residential estates , side by side with actual cement factories and distilleries...
@kevinkamaumucha Kamau, You may have to check the details one more time...look at the top of the Ring beam.+ wall plate +Rafter+ tile valley...these should ideally be at that line saying sika additive....check and confirm to avoid rainwater overshoot.
@LureCompany This Structure needs a "Work Stop Order"...Everything in those pictures indicate that there are Drawings , The Mis Is very poor and not Poker Vibrated...The Rebars seem not to be from a structural drawing....Theowner should stop the works ASP.
@SabrimaHomes There's something wrong with the structure's siting as well , most probably the client here took the Fundis from Mtaani and decided its construction time....The Decra roofing $$ woi ๐ฑ๐ฑ & they won't be harvesting water for consumption ๐...Clients need to be advised very early.
@SabrimaHomes Me thinks that if you approach them well with the correct details and the correct fascia heights+ aesthetics +the correct mix with waterproofing + the correct gradient +the correct down piping + the correct storage tank placement, then you will never climb up there for repairs.
@Jeroo_KE@kevinkamaumucha What's this? Is it Aesthetic or function...Shearwalls here don't make some sense....post part of the plan with these 2 features, so we can discuss...
