Abt 350k.
614sq ft.

oic, about RM570 per sqft. seems like a 2nd tier property in klang valley so can't be fussy as if it's 1st tier quality la

just check about the functionality of those thing ok already. ironmongery is work, the key is correct, the qty of power points is as per agreement, check the wall facing outside 1 whether it's humid to ensure no water seeping through especially windows edge, check the toilet floor by pour a lot of water on the floor to see if the water will flow to the floor trap. sometimes the floor tile they didn't make it a fall, to let the water flow to floor trap, check the floor/wall tile if it already broken as sometimes after completed the work, the other trade by damage it. check timber floor also if u have that as timber floor is fragile especially contact v water. it will bulging when contact with water.

basically is like that. if first tier, there were a lot of thing have to taken care of

I see I see! I plan to renovate abit. It's a one bedroom house so I plan to build a wall in between to create another smaller room. Any idea on the budget I should prepare?? Thanks again sifu

A normal 3 storey shop lot built in the 70s 80s, how much load can they withstand before collapse?

May I know what is the psf to build a 2-story shoplot??

depend what are the wall u want. gymsum board, brickwall, etc. gymsum board is pretty cheap nowadays. since ur qty is small, should be within 1.5k.

depend how big u want la. assume 900 - 1000 sqft per storey. standard.

won't collapse unless u use it for other purpose. example, that is residential house, but u use it as warehouse and store and stacking up a lot of heavy stuff, will collapse 1. their original design intent is meant for residential hence the loading is as per the residential loading. if u want to know the exact loading u have to go and refer to BS5950 manual reference. but then best to get engineer to design if u wanna modify that house

Sorry sorry...I mean how many RM/psf?....

always use 175/sqft for budgeting.

Why and when to choose a luffing crane over a hammerhead or flat top crane? Cuz sometimes I see some site only have luffing crane

Did you guys pay TM so they can install the infra faster

Some new project don't even have telephone wire

A million thanks!

because hammerhead span too long. especially at klang valley, the site is small hence hammerhead tower crane span beyond the boundary of site which is prohibited by local authority.

I see thanks for da info

Also do you have any idea how to make a house more insulated? The other day I have a thought if a house more insulated means less air con usage?

not sure if you are still looking but my company is looking for SHOs with green card. PM me

apply tinting on your windows. beside that there other way is to get a contractor that do a layer of gymsum board on the wall, apply a layer of rockwool on the wall surface b4 use the gypsum board to close up. but not cost efficient i think

not cost efficient?

mean u spend more overall. or maybe u need save 10 years electric bill get back those cost? plus when u put rockwool and gypsum board, ur wall set back a little bit. make ur room smaller.

brickwall generally not good in thermal insulation

to save that better get inverter aircond

oh ya, overall u still can be green (save energy and sources of thing)
1. fix rainwater harvesting tank to collect rainwater for flushing toilet
2. fixing solar panel (but not really cost effective at the moment as it is so expensive)
3. put more glazing panel at windows so fully utilize daylight
4. LED light fitting for lesser energy consumption


Sime Darby is going toward this direction when developing properties.
