    Thank you another great video. You should know many more people will come and build but without a job available in Ghana, and no business skills it’s uncomfortable to think and realize for most how can they survive financially? In America most people or average person as a job or government check monthly. If it was not for that trust me thousands would come. I have the money for land and house. And materials. But having the money for say a full business in the states and in Ghana is another entire story!!!! 😅

    We are doing hidden roof, from my understanding as long as you have the strong cement and waterproof mixed in at the same time, and the roof in the right slant angle for the rain to go down the gutters, praying all will be well, it's not cheap at all

      You should talk to an expert else those things might not be enough. Lot's of people do hidden roof to cut cost and end up regretting cis hidden roof is not cheap when done well with bitumen layer.

      So i can help a bit with the wifi interference part. The metal naturally with interfere with wifi signal but the bricks used in building has the same effect. The more obstacles the wifi frequency has to pass through, the lower the signal it emits. Not sure how building works in Ghana but it the metal trusses go on the outside of the building or inside, the building blocks are having similar effect or worse on the wifi signal.

      Metal trusses, depending on the material, can cost 1.5x-4x the price of wood. It's the best actually if you can afford it. I'm not aware of metal trusses interfering with WiFi signals.
      You should know that metal trusses range in quality and material. Aluminium cost more. Some very cheap metal trusses can rust when you live in a coastal area.
