LETS DISCUSS PLUMBERS, ELECTRICIANS AND THEIR BLOCK BREAKING MENACES ON SITE
When itâs not demolition work that you are contracted for, youâll tear down walls creating large holes. There are simple machines like wall chasers, cutting machines that can be used in achieving wall grooving without breaking more than necessary. If you canât afford to buy or rent these machines, there is meticulous use of chisels and hammer in achieving same level of works
IMPLICATIONS OF UNPROFESSIONAL WALL BREAKING
1. Wastage of money and materials , the money used in purchasing those blocks, the cost of cement and sand used in setting those blocks, as well as the workmanship paid to bricklayers in setting those blocks, in order to cover the holes materials that could otherwise be used for other construction activities will be used in filling and grouting.
2. Compromising load bearing ability of walls; most especially in unframed structures where walls primarily transfer loads from beams and slabs
3. Risk of collapse and injuries to workmen and other people on site
P.S- as a workman, invest in your craft, learn the use of mordern tools and machine, adopt up to standard techniques. Your ability to improve and deliver quality jobs is your ticket to stay in business.
