The explanation is very clear. As the saying goes "with out data you are someone with an opinion"
This has made me make a decision based on facts.
Thx alot.

[@faithsteph.2]

It's an eye-opener for me, actually thanks for the clear explanation .

[@knowledgeandwisdom-xp5cd]

Thank you for your detailed explanation in English.

[@discoverworldcomedyadvises4796]

I didn’t know all about this but really a person whoses looking upto building shouldn’t by passs this page eeeh🏆

[@jaysdelight369]

Your analysis makes it easier for those with no engineering background to understand clearly what to expect while planning a construction project.

[@cheperwasrosetta30]

Very resourcefully information Darwin. My questions are; 1. is it cheaper to make your own hollow blocks before construction or it's better to buy? 2. How many pieces of blocks can 1 bag of cement produce (standard) if I am to make own blocks rather than buying? Awaiting your feedback. Thank you.

[@sendigyaerisa1168]

The best analysis ever

[@sulamatovu3700]

Just watched this in October 2023 and information is still very relevant as I plan my building project. Thank you!

[@mukizadarwin]

You're welcome

[@novembersfinest29]

Thanks very much for the information, I've been asking myself which is cheaper to use but you've clarified everything very well.

[@pokoth1]

And Darwin has done it again. Well articulated and more so practical. Can't thank you enough

[@mukizadarwin]

Appreciate

[@brunokangume6973]

Thumbs up Mr.Darwin. I have the all the episodes of 3 bedroom house and i couldnt be more informed, this video makes more sense, i love all these videos

You make it so simple, thank you very much. It has been a great class 🙏🏾

[@simonmagezi7161]

Thanks kabulaza I was waiting for this evolution all along.

[@ahmedswalik3495]

Hi Darwin, love your content. Please keep it up and do also cover I-section construction cost benefits vs the conventional approach. Love your flow and love your vibe. Big up Bro, God bless!

[@mukizadarwin]

Thanks Ahmed for appreciating...will do my best on that

[@ruthjacobs6175]

I think I love your work,thanks for all the efforts!! You have demystified many myths for me this earned a subscriber.
Can you do bio digesters vs the traditional ones🙏🏾

[@collineasiimwe9271]

Mr.Owomugisha thanks for this eye-opener session. It was a game changer for me.

[@muhanguziclinton302]

Very good explanation, simplified for those without much building knowledge

[@mukizadarwin]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Sewapetero101]

Thanks Darwin for the information. Its very useful. Please make a video on interlocking bricks. They are actually cheaper than both clay and hollow blocks plus you dont need mortar.

[@tumwineaggrey736]

Thanks man for this content been looking for this for over a month

[@ssemmanda]

Thanks. I learn a lot

[@mikeonyimbo7187]

Thank you

[@josephkabaale797]

Good job. Labour rates per sm are quite high though. That fine tuned, would even illustrate the point better. Wish you could also team up with an engineer to illustrate strength and other factors comparison.

[@youropinionmattersyom9164]

Very interesting thanks ❤

[@robertkyambadde3588]

Thank you very much for that information and pliz bring us more and also tell us about the cost of paint for a 5 bedroom house and how much paint is required

[@kaweesifaisal5422]

This so great bro keep it up and just get better and shots yo the best

[@matigon550]

Expertly explained...kudos Darwin

I'm glad that i finally came across such a Vlog. It will definitely help me making a right decisions.
Thank you for this.
If you know where to buy 9*9 blocks between lukaya and Masaka pleace share it with me.
Best regards.

[@mukizadarwin]

Glad it was helpful!

[@judithmuk1000]

Hi Darwin, i came across your channel very informative thanks very much. Have you done comparison on interlocking bricks and Hollow bricks please. Keep up the job Thanks.

[@aishagimono7972]

Love, love, love. Excellent insight.

[@Brazterio-cu9lj]

Good and useful information. The part i dont agree with is the calculation of labour per sq meter. otherwise thanks.

[@nakitende65]

Thanks dear

[@luckytusiime1]

Thank you, Darwin, for the useful information.
Well, my question is: Which type of bricks do you recommend in terms of durability, clay bricks or hollow blocks?

[@mukizadarwin]

Tough question....
If both a well made and of good quality and protected from extreme moisture conditions...they're both very durable even to more than 100Years.....as compared to Mud bricks.

[@luckytusiime1]

@@mukizadarwin, thank you for your timely reply. How do I protect protect them from extreme moisture conditions and how do distinguish good from bad quality?
Thanks!

[@alexkakooza3116]

That's why the rich excel in real estate because most of the construction is done in hollow bricks

[@jamesowor4213]

How about hollow blocks and hydraform bricks?!!?

[@kafrikaselitaselita1151]

Thanks alot

[@blairelement5433]

Good job (well done )

Thnx bro for great info but pliz bro how many hollow blocks can take a 4 bedroom house to wallplate. Thnx bro

[@multiskillsproductioncente9668]

Am considering doing this using compressed soil interlocking bricks. What's your expert opinion?

[@ssebitaabawamala6861]

Lovely...💪💪💪✍️✍️

[@josephjuma8038]

This guy is a Professor Engineer, this is so elaborate and articulate. Thanks, me i have no question for i have understood everything. Let me subscribe yiven🤩

[@mubirustephen4054]

You're a star 🌟

[@abelwilliam4]

Amazing stuff

[@mukizadarwin]

Thank you

[@androidaddict951]

what about Steel Reinforcement in hollow block every 4ft with poured mortar ?? will it cost effective than re bricks?

[@juliusomondo-fl5uv]

qn how many hollow blocks can be made in one bag of cement and what is the ratio mixture of sand and cement

[@alexkakooza3116]

Good job

[@ronniewamala5768]

Thank you brother, can you do an estimated cost of building a self contained 2 bedroom bungalow please.

[@mukizadarwin]

Hopefully, when we get the time

[@davidmwoma1624]

What about strength & durability? Please talk on this.

[@mosimba2665]

Good video Brother, my greetings from Canada

[@cissynk3642]

Hey Darwin thanks so much may God bless you with more knowledge How many hollow blocks do i need when i want to build three bedrooms house

[@tinkafahad6855]

Wooooooow that was awesome, thanks.
May I know of the hollow and clacks bricks which one is stronger please

[@mukizadarwin]

Clay bricks are generally strong. The strength of Hollow blocks varies depending on the mix ratios of Cement, sand and stone-dust used....

[@Marie-sr8jt]

Bwoyogera oluganda wekosa?

[@bangisibanorovin]

Mungabeko man tatutama😂

[@bobkyeyune4785]

just watched this video and also for steel beam, wondering are hollow blocks better if you constructing with steel beam technology. How can check for the build integrity of a hollow block while buying because as you know Uganda's love short cuts esp now that cement is so expensive

[@sandiledlamini5049]

What are your details? I want to build something here in Swaziland?

[@nduggashafiki8056]

its grt mr

[@mukizadarwin]

Thank you

[@ludacrees]

What is smaller than Shelling? E.g. A Cent is smaller than a Rand

[@nasprisca6219]

Is it cheaper to make your own hollow bricks before construction or to buy

[@Alpha_music_ent]

Thank u sir

[@byaruhangacharles7445]

❤

[@WhyNot-yz5vp]

thank you sir
wanna ask you am doing civil engineering in my second year now so as an engineer do i need to know all those details

[@mukizadarwin]

Yes, this info will come in handy...you wont learn most of these things at school of Engineering

[@jaysonsylvia3446]

How many mad bricks can build a 4 bedroom house???

[@katumbamoses5349]

Liked it thanks

[@Playbootstm]

Cheap is expensive

[@brunoksibyetekerwa4805]

Thanks you very much ssebo. Can u provide ur number pliz. Some ppl ask me for good engineers in Uganda. The fact that u are able to provide this information free means ur do care about ur client's pockets. I will pass on ur number to ppl in UK looking for ppl like you .most engineers when asked about such information, they ask for huge amounts first
