This video demonstrates the construction of an oval lintel for an underground water tank, emphasizing the importance of proper reinforcement using wire mesh to prevent structural cracking and ensure long-term durability. The construction process involves careful tying of the lintel, application of DPC membrane for moisture protection, and systematic material verification including roofing nails and mesh. The methodology highlights how strategic excavation and reinforcement techniques can protect structures from environmental challenges like flooding, particularly in regions like Nairobi where seasonal flooding is common.

UNIQUE WAY: TYING OVAL LENTEL OF UNDERGROUND WATER TANK phase3a
Added:Okay.
So remember we still need job offer from your side, from your neighbor, from your friends, from the friends of your friends.
Morning. How are you? Yeah, it's me again. As you can see guys, we are tying the last which is the second one so that we can have to build a top connection with the top the last.
If it is new your first time [snorts] maybe you are new in this channel please subscribe, share like drop the comment.
I remember here we are making sure that uh we are tying the lent and avoid some difficulties in terms of handle this situation.
Yes, can see the display is here. See camera is uh camera is behaving bad. Let me stop at least stop it.
Okay.
All right. This phone is disturbing issues.
You have to take precautions. Yes.
I'm instructing the guy that we have to be very careful.
So guys, maybe it is your first time to cross the channel which is give back to architecture construction. It's my YouTube name. Please subscribe, share, like and drop the comment guys for what I'm doing. Maybe you have a suggestion, you have some advice. Yeah, you have another idea of handling a situation like this. Please [snorts] guys, okay, I'm ready to working on Okay. To work on it. Okay. So, keep tuned. Keep tuned because we are transforming the system.
My number is + 254729430825 down uh down below. Okay.
On the screen. All right. Or it is here.
Is here. Okay. It is here. [snorts] Uh guys, thank you so much guys for supporting Gibbat's channel and me uh myself because I have a lot to share with you guys. Please show me love by actions.
Let's proceed as we keep we are updating each other guys. Mhm.
Wowch.
You know what I mean?
See, wake up.
Wake up. Wake up.
>> [clears throat] >> So remember guys, this is the site [snorts] of located at Nairobi. Nairobi, [snorts] right?
and I count is progressing [snorts] terms of construction.
Yes.
Yeah. We have to update each other how you can copy or imitate the strategy that people are using to build Nairobi.
I remember is a a typical love but people saw it here. You have to deal with it in style.
dig dig even excavation must be done so that uh during the rain season during the rain season you can not uh be affected with that flood whatever you've seen you've seen Nairobi sometimes is in flood in a flood situation but uh most of houses was not affected just because strategy that are that people are using.
Okay. So, let us proceed as we are continue receiving materials at site and uh I remember we have to deliver as we promise.
Mhm.
So this is the last lent we are tying and if you tie this lent it means that we'd like to pure concrete on our preparation of the top this tank. That's why bees in terms of delivering the typical job as you can see but remember this is not some of them some of you some of your your group are suggesting that this must be a swimming pool but it is not is not it is not a swimming pool this is underground water tank it's able to serve water and uh yeah to keep water long as a container. Let us verify what is >> uh item five.
>> Five items.
>> Mhm. Six >> seven items.
19 19.
Okay. [snorts] And the remain is roofing nails 1 kg the PC and uh okay well mesh or wire mesh.
Yeah. Okay.
So how to verify the items came with? So Wow.
Okay.
We can proceed with what we have to deliver.
Sour. Sour.
How are you?
>> [snorts] >> No.
This doesn't work.
Hello.
>> [snorts] [snorts] >> Guys, I'm this corner in situation because must be completely consistent. the bowling situation.
That's why I'm very careful are taking shape.
Have you ever seen this strategy, guys?
Have you ever seen this strategy that I'm using here to tie lantern with the plywoods ply >> or do you have another way to make a transformation?
What about in your area?
How do you do a situation such as this one like this?
Well, can you agree with me that I'm applying a new methodology here?
You agree with me?
Tough one.
Type one to do the me hashtag one.
I like to show my actions.
No, no, no.
>> [snorts] >> New methodology. Is it correct? Am I correct to say that this is a new methodology application instead of using timbers because don't have you don't find timbers in a a flexible way which can uh be flexible in terms of making corners like this. Use use I'm here.
I don't know.
Thank you.
New way of doing things in a new methodology.
Just do your own research about the name or about the word or the inspiration about the proverbs.
If you applying new methodology, you are a new methodologist.
terminology.
>> You have to calculate.
use mathematics and you must by the way physics.
I'm ready.
What are you Remember that's why yesterday it was months to your concrete in this uh columns because if it can uh it would happen in contra way I would achieve I would not achieve this stage to run with this all around of this all All the time.
Let's go.
All right.
This is the gauge.
back.
So guys remember to contact Gat in is easier is easier is easier in easier way just follow me on uh Instagram, Tik Tok, WhatsApp, Facebook.
All right. Most importantly, YouTube get back to Creator Construction. A guy who can support you, who can serve you in easier way, guys. [laughter] [sighs and gasps] All right. Yeah, I can even take a thumbnail here. Wow.
Good.
Okay. So, take a thumbnail.
A thumbnail is here.
All right. Good.
So my number is plus 254729430835 down below on the screen construction number. Okay. Yeah. Plus 254 729430835.
plus 254729 430 835 big up to you. Let's proceed.
>> Okay, let's pause a bit.
So, this is what I wanted.
You see guys, good display cover.
Wow.
None other than Gil Butter can deliver this uh type of job here.
Okay.
So remember, we still need job offer from your side, from your neighbor, from your friends, from the friends of your friends.
Okay? You never know. Maybe the next post can come from your side. Keep tuning. Keep tuned. I'm here to work with you.
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let us apply another thing on this display. Reinforce the plywood because despite that are flexible, they must be tight in a certain way.
In fact, it's what you do in mesh mesh is this one. You have to display wire mesh on weld mesh inside the the tank so that you can do application of reinforcement of the tank itself antibi mesh w mesh w mesh weld mesh and thereafter after doing uh that formwork we use this DPC membrane of dam cause dimples membrane.
Okay, this this is a ro of the membrane DPC membrane.
Okay.
All necessities, necessary tools or materials. We have nails different size different sizes.
>> Yeah, a different type one one in plastering terms of doing uh making uh or putting belt on the end of the wall perimeter wall is ongoing.
That's why people are busy here. Can even see, you can even hear the movement.
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
foreign.
[snorts] Good.
Good.
So if I tell you the cheese, but the display touching the nails.
You have to wear overall on this coat. It has a pockets because it will help you to easier way.
You don't know.
What's up?
That's good.
>> [snorts] >> What are you Let's put the key.
Come here.
>> [snorts] >> Hello.
Can you guess the importance of [snorts] that inside?
in the tank inside here.
Get to the top of the >> [snorts] >> International.
That one.
Okay.
[snorts] So let me say goodbye for now because I'm applying this wage inside the tank to reinforce or to avoid to be there to prevent some cracking or busting system can appear or can happen. So by now let me uh let me say goodbye for now as I post a video guys. See you next time in the next video. All right.
