the floor plan is not good, op kindly redesign, ur sitting room kitchen and dinning, it's very bad....
I have calculated the cost for foundation,
Digging foundation: 40000
1120 block for foundation : 134400
cement: 48000
bricklayers and labour : 40000
Total : 262,400...

but d price can go down in ur area, here in idiroko cement is 2400 and u r going to use 20 bags of cement, block is 120 and u r going to use 1120 blocks, that's d estimate, it can't pass d price I give u, am a site engineer and supervisor
What about stones and sand? Will it not be used

I did my 5 bedroom foundation to DPC level in the East at a cost of about 700k. All these guys calling millions for you, either they don't know what they
are saying or they are building contractors inflating cost in anticipation.
May be u build 5yrs ago, every damn thing has increased 4times including labour, am sure cos am building 4bedroom bungalow too in 33-nsugbe anambra state,
It will cost roughly 3million to build &finish.

Thanks Jamesbiodun, but in some new housing designs, the sitting room is always separate from the dinning, also the lack of adjoining door from the kitchen to dinning is also intention, just for privacy purpose. But your costing did not include cost of German floor, please I will appreciate if you will include. More blessings.

No I started the building this January. I'm just about to roof the building in a short while. So it is at the current cost of things

Or it seems you don't really understand what DPC level mean. It is just below the window level. Before I finish the building I'm suppose to spend far more than 3 million.

The floor plan is okay... You don't criticize a plan without pointing out the errors..
What is wrong with the kitchen & dining?
Pls stick to your site supervision....Does this your 40k digging includes setting out?
@op just create an opening btw the lounge & dining...close the opening to the lobby.
introduce one more window to front of the living room...that is all

I presume you are trying to maximize space but since its a bungalow, the Sitting room and dinning room design should alter to make it a lot cheaper for you.

But generally, the entire foundation will cost you approximately N1.7mil.

36 bags of cement for block molding
25, 200 for molders
15,000 for Engineer pegging
30,000 for digging and pouring
50,000 for double trip of stone base
72,000 for setting to DCP level
12 bags of cement for choking and foundation level taking
16 trips of red sand for foundation filling.
6 length of 12 mm for pillars

The drawing is very poor.
You will have visibility and ventilation issues in your lobby.
Find a better architect and come back for more professional advice.

From your plan. Prepare for about 1m. I.e if you're including the dpc as your 'foundation'. Thanks
Re: Cost Of Building Foundation for a 4 Bedroom Bungalow In The East by chikend(m): 7:19pm On Apr 09, 2017
Also, as an architect I would do certain things differently from the way your architect did but I can tell you there's nothing wrong with your design. Any architect will understand the challenges in planning 3 bedrooms or more 'bungalows'.

Can't u see d guy created an opening from d ante room to light up d lobby?
As an architect, if not from openings from other spaces, how many designs have windows dedicated for lobby in bungalows?

A raft foundation for a 4 Bedroom bungalow will certainly be more the amount I wrote.
Secondly, I presuppose that you expect the foundation to be close to the ground without taking cognizance of the future of any adjoining road.
Thirdly, four bedroom bungalow with such dimension would require reinforcement.

My estimate stems from these observations and more.

Funny how you @johnson232 jump around criticizing without contribution as though you are the Op. Your observations are noted but what if you keep it to yourself and if requested.

Thanks

We are all here to learn.
The points u laid out for arriving at that 1.7m to me isn't valid enough. Even with a reinforcement...

I was expecting a rough breakdown of sth like...
setting out.....
digging......
concrete footing.....
block work.....
filling & german foor....
reinforcement & wood work....

let me see how u will arrive at that amount for a four bedroom bungalow....
