The substructure is the part of a building that goes below the ground level. ..The main function of the substructure is to support and transfer the load of the building to the ground and to isolate it horizontally from the ground. It comprises of

1. Foundations, column bases and columns up to and including the damp proof course.
2. Floors below the ground floor slab.
3. Excavations to basements and underground tanks within the building.
4. Basement retaining walls up to and including waterproofing.

The Process of Building a House
Pre-construction phase
1. Land acquisition
The process of building a house usually begins with the purchase of land.

Careful consideration should be taken when buying land since factors such as the size of land, location, terrain, etc. determine the type of house to be constructed.

2. Documentation
Many homeowners have lost property due to lack of proof of ownership. This can be avoided by securing local authority’s approval before embarking on a project.

In fact, this is one of the legal requirements for building a house in Kenya.

Be sure to obtain documents demonstrating that the purchase/transfer of the respective parcel has been done legally with the approval of legal authorities.

3. Building plan
Once documentation has been completed, it is now time to decide on a house plan. Discuss your brief with the architect and, if possible, make a site visit with him.

This is important because site features may influence the design of your house.

You can choose a ready house plan or you may ask your architect to make a plan for you. In most cases, it is advisable to custom-design your building plan.

4. Financial planning
This involves finding out how much you can raise for your project and how much the venture is likely to cost depending on materials, types of machinery, etc.

At this point you may realise that you will need a construction loan and it is advisable to get in touch with lenders to find out how much you qualify for.

Construction phase
5. Site preparation
This involves getting rid of vegetation and other unwanted stuff that can obstruct construction works on site. Site preparation for small sites can be done using hand tools such as hoes and pangas but you may need to an excavator to do the job.

6. Laying foundation
A foundation is lowest part of a house where the structure meets the soil.

It is prepared by excavating soil around all the walls of a building and filling the trenches with concrete and steel to help it support the weight of the building.

A foundation must be prepared with care to avoid future catastrophe.

7. Reinforcing foundation
After successfully erecting the foundation, a reinforcement known as “plinth beam and slab” is added to the top. This shields the foundation from dampness and prevents its cracks from reaching the wall.

It also helps to keep the foundation sturdy in the event of an earthquake.

8. Superstructure
This provides support for the beam and slab. Its members include the column designed to reinforce the weight mounted upon the structure’s foundation.

The columns are built up to the slab and frame for further construction. A waterproof coating is placed to keep water from entering the slab and casting.

9. Erecting the walls
Walls are the visible part of a building. Based on personal preferences, walls can be built using stones or materials such as concrete blocks and fly ash bricks.

The structure of openings – doors and windows – is usually carved out by the masons when erecting the walls of the building.

10. The lintel
Once the wall is up, it is time to build a lintel on top of the wall.

This is a beam placed across the window and door openings as support for the weight of the structure placed on top of it – usually the roofing structure.

11. Roofing
This involves framing of the topmost layer of the building to offer protection from harsh weather, and decoration and beautification.

12. Wiring and plumbing
Electrical wires and pipes should be installed at this point to ensure they are hidden away from sight between the walls and slabs.

Only sockets and endpoint of pipes should be visible.

13. Interior and exterior finishes
After wiring and plumbing works are over, it is time to begin plastering work to protect the house from effects of weather and to make it appear more attractive.

For exterior finishes, a mixture of cement and sand is plastered on the walls with a thickness of 13mm to 20mm.

Interior décor is done according to the procedure put by the designer.

14. Flooring
Flooring works involve the laying out of tiles, marble, wood, or any other types of flooring materials as per the taste and preferences of the homeowner.

This is done as soon as interior and exterior finishes are over.

15. Painting
The process of building a house is now coming to a close, and a coat of paint should be applied to beatify the home and protect it from the effects of weather.

For painting the external walls of the house, it is best to settle for latex paints since they are highly resistant to water pe*******on.
