South Sudanese society in upper Nile state are living in a hart
time because of war that destroy their
heart before independence to the cracking
of the houses that they are facing . Then,
what are the
causes of this cracking? Is it from foundation
movement, wrong
methods of construction or bad quality material? How is the new
generation going to face it?
Foundation
movements and settling of buildings
This black cotton
soil is one of the reasons of cracking of the houses in south Sudan Malakal,
and the big challenges that are facing us is; How do we make a house that
cannot crack in this type of soil? What are the foundations that need it for
that earth?
wrong method of
construction (Using
of the ¾ brick in building)
Bad quality
materials
to make a good
building that is needed by the society, it needs some of the tools and machine
that can help a builder to make a good quality of the building. And within
those tools and material, are the tools that use for cutting brick according to
the size that needed to be use in building
Cracking that happen for this wall according to my analysis
is start from the corner, then it goes to other part of the wall, which means
if there is a good join in the corner, it will not affect the whole wall.
How to we find good tools for cutting? What can we do to
make builder understand the important of proper bonding in building?
