House Constuction [Merged]

[kagalingan]

Supply, soil or rain spouts? Common on 'industrial' influenced homes. Some even on commercial applications. Was awed by how they converted the old Nabisco factory into Chelsea Market (pic below...good lobster.[emoji4]).
As advocates of low/easy maintenance construction, the thrust is to try avoiding roof gutters where possible....w/ the catchment on the ground instead of up the roof. No unsightly spouts, nothing to spend on & no leaks to repair.
On bath supply lines, embed em on the outer side of walls for easier repair access in leak cases. One doesn't need to go chipping tiles this way.

water supply. Maganda nga pag magpatayo ng bahay sa dulo-dulo lagi comfort room tapos sa labas na lahat daanan. Unsightly pero wala sakit ulo. Walang titibagin.

Sa condominum yan ang problem mga tulo.

Yan din inisip ko sa design ng haus namin, I placed the 2F T&B above the garage, so if there is a problem with leaks, di maabala i-repair, compared to now where sa ibabaw siya ng kitchen namin, na tumulo na dati but fortunately not the pipes but the bath floor had no waterproofing. Ang takbo din ng water and sanitary lines ay along the perimeter of the house and shallowly embedded para madali palitan just in case.

On slabs that will have potential water problems, if you can't go w/o ceiling, there are removable metal & vinyl ceiling panels. They're a good way to eliminate collateral damage.
Practical & Low-Maintenance designs are conceived on the drawing board where errors on paper just go to the waste bin. This is where the value & experience of a designer surfaces. The best ones are those who design/build as if these were for own use.
