I am a Quantity Surveyor based in South Africa, I do not understand why west Africans do not use insulation when building your roof given the heat in this area, the rock filling should be done first, fill with sand then your damp proof membrane before the concrete is placed, I see they are doing it the other way where they placed the rocks on the dpm, well this defeat the purpose as the rock will punture through the dpm, just given an advise
@bigpot6 ай бұрын
What’s the function of a DPM, to resist upward moist movement’s. It’s wrong to carry out the process the way you have stated. The foundation should first be infilled with laterite sand, and the hardcore placed, followed with laying d DPM and a BRC mesh placed on top. And then the final DPC
@IntellectualBadman6 ай бұрын
We do not need insulation for our roofs, the height of the roof solves the problem of heat. Insulation will only cause more heat rention within the roof. Secondly, the DPC was done right, go and check The Perkins Builder brothers channel on KZbin and you will see that Americans do their foundations in similar fashion as we do in Nigeria.

It is advisable to use solid blocks in foundations if you don't plan on putting concrete in the hollow part of the foundation blocks. All concrete are advised to be vibrated to reduce voids by use of a poker vibrator. Hollow blocks are ideal for interior walls as they help with acoustic control/soundproofing. All hardcore in foundation should be sand blinded or soil filled to reduce gaps that may use up more concrete and also create large voids that could later cause the floor to crack from settlement if concrete is not well distributed between those hardcore gaps. Damp proof membrane (plastic) is then laid upon the sand blinding or soiling and over the foundation blocks before the grade slab is poured/concreted to prevent rapid loss of water from concrete, groundwater absorption during the rains by the slab and walls, which will create dampness in buildings, leading to the walls always being moist hence leading to paints flaking or peeling off. Neat construction by the way.
