GRADE:

Image
As applied to the determination of building height shall mean a reference plane representing the average of finished ground level adjoining the building at all exterior walls. When the finished ground level slopes away from the exterior walls, the reference plane shall be established by the lowest points within the area between the building and the plot line or, when the plot line is more than 1.8m from the building, between the building and a point 1.8m from the building.

GARAGE:

Image
(PRIVATE): This means a garage in which only motor vehicles used by the occupants of the building or buildings on the premises are stored or parked. (PUBLIC): This means any garage other than a private garage and shall include those where provision is made for the servicing, repair, painting or fuel-dispensing to motor vehicles.

FOUNDATION:

Image
This means a system or arrangement of structural members through which the loads from a building are transferred to supporting soil or rock. Types of foundation: Shallow foundations , often called  footings , are usually embedded about a metre or so into soil. A common type is the spread footing which consists of strips or pads of concrete (or other materials) which extend below the frost line and transfer the weight from walls and columns to the soil or bedrock. Another common type of shallow foundation is the slab-on-grade (raft) foundation where the weight of the building is transferred to the soil through a concrete slab placed at the surface. Slab-on-grade foundations can be reinforced mat slabs, which range from 25 cm to several meters thick, depending on the size of the building, or post-tensioned slabs, which are typically at least 20 cm for houses, and thicker for heavier structures. A  deep foundation  is used to transfer the load of a structure down through the upper wea

FLOOR FILL:

Image
Shall mean the fill between the structural floor (arch or slab) and the finished flooring. This strata of the building determines the overall functions of the whole building. When mismanaged it could lead to a building catastrophe. For adequate designs and further information contact us on 08050947006
