Small tip: Each time materials are delivered on site, compare the delivery note to the purchase order to verify order vs delivery then go the extra mile to count all the pieces delivered whilst conducting quality checks. Any deformed pieces immediately returned to the supplier.

*Imposter syndrome almost did that thing.
Anyways, 4 days progress after I started doing my mom's external works. I'm happy that I get to move at my own pace, mosmos tu.

Let's look into some CONSTRUCTION MYTHS
1)Working in construction means you're uneducated/not smart enough to do anything else.
2)Only for men & requires brute strength.
3)It's unsafe.
4)All constr' jobs are dirty.
5)No career advancement.
6)Workers are unskilled.

As seen(previous retweet),this typa surface cracking may be due to:
●Fast moisture loss from the slab
●Light concrete
●Insufficient cover
To prevent problem No1:
●Surface wetting
●Curing blankets
●Sand spreading
These are wetted to keep moisture constant & slow evaporation

Good morning,
Ever wondered why ceramic tiles are soaked in water before install?Due to their hydrophilic nature,at the presence of a cementitious base/ adhesive,their hydration is activated prompting them to extract water from the base reducing their strength(bond).

One concept that is sometimes overlooked in construction sites : hooks provision on stirrups/links. These resist seismic movements, prevent bulking of the column, keep longitudinal bars in place ,and averts steel slippage from concrete. Small but mighty warriors these ones!
