Hi,

Im trying to figure out why someone would spend say 25 to 30BHTon one of the lightwieght "breezeblock" type products versus for example
simple concrete blocks made by locals at 4bht a piece, also the small terracotta bricks that are mere Satangs a piece.

Has anyone done a compartive analysis of these 3 types of building materials to ascertain which one actually represents good value?

Hi All,

I am baout to obtain building permits for a property I am building on land that is in my wifes name (the freehold) The land has a lease on it in my name and my two partners in a business venture we are embarking on.

My wife is dealing with the municpal for our work permits. My questions are:-

Do the building permits have to be in the name of the OWNER of the building?

What are the OWNERSHIP issues fr the building?, if the land is leased to me and two others....

Will Tambien Banns ONLY be issued in the name of the person on the builiding permit?

My key concern is that the building will double both as a dwelling for me and my wife, but a place of business for me and my partners.

Just trying to ensure we get ownership and security for all.

Thanks in advance

anyone know of a manufacturer of 4 core aluminium power cable ? Can only seem to find single core.

Can anyone tell me what they pay for cable?

We require as follows:-

1300METERS of 2.5mm core
800 METERS of  1.5mm core
305 METERS of 25mm core

Cant seem to find many suppliers here in Hua Hin.

Also HDPE pipe....anyone know where I can get thin wall (3.2PN) all the supppliers only seem to have thick wall in stock
at much higher prices.

Ive noticed there are some pretty knowledgeable expats on the forum for electrics, and hope to get some advice on the materials I need to buy and what I might expect them to cost, to run a supply around my whole site.

The site has a walkway all the way around it, and starting from our house I would like to run cable around the perimeter to feed the following:-

Uplighters for coconut trees, (each uplight maybe 40WS and as many as 20 of them)
walkway low wattage bollards also come with outdoor socket for pluggin in appliances. (water pumps, lawnmowers etc)
Supply for 2 small bungalows of about 40sqm, inside the bungalows have 1 aircon unit, and a hot water shower unit. As well as all usual lights etc and ceiling fans.

What I am trying to determine is what kind of cable is best and should I place it in conduit?
How many circuits should i install?

My plan as it stands is to bury some form of conduit hopefully to just carry 1 ring which I caan take spurs of for all the aplliances even the bungalows....would that work?

Any ideas suggestions would be help full.


Thanks
