Reasons why buildings collapse in Nigeria!!!!

1.Weak foundations. Thumbs rule in building constructions apply only to sandy soil and sandy gravel. In a silty and clay soil, depth of footings and columns should be deeper And concrete mixture should not be compromised. In more than a 2 storey building, rebars should be at least 16mm for columns. Any cantilever should be well calculated . Often in order to save cost , structural engineers use normal foundation in swampy enviroment, wrong rebars in columns and wrong concrete mixture which would result in a very weak foundation that cant carry the calculated dead load and living load, resulting in collapse of the building. Is like giving a heavy box to a toddler to carry!!!! Both would fall.
2.
2.The quality of steel rods has deteliorated over time. In nineties, it would be impossible for an adult to bend a 12mm rod with his bar hands, but now a 14yr old boy does bend such a rod. This contribute to weak rebars. Government has a lot of work to do in this regard.

3 workers making mistakes. Structural Engineers normally resort to use of unskilled workers. These people may not mix the concerete well. Imagine measuring sand , stones and even cement with wheel barrow!! This result in concrete that is too weak to carry load.

Everything is about the contractors and Engineers trying to cut cost. It normally leads to "penny wise pounds foolish".

Six (6) darkest manipulation Tactics women use to control you.

understanding these behaviors can help you recognize and address them in your relationships.

let's get started

1). Emotional Blackmail: Emotional Blackmail is one of the most insidious forms of manipulation. It involves using guilt, fear and obligation to control someone for example a woman might say if you loved me you would do this for me.

I can't believe you would hurt me like this. these statements can make you feel responsible for her happiness or distress leading you to comply with her demands to avoid guilt or fear of losing her

2). Gaslighting: gaslighting is a psychological tactic where the manipulator makes you doubt your own perceptions and reality. A woman using this tactic might deny events that you clearly remember twist facts or accuse you of being overly sensitive or paranoid over time this can erode yourself confidence and make you more dependent on her version of reality giving her more control over you.

3). Playing the Victim: playing the victim
playing the victim is a manipulation tactic where someone portrays themselves as helpless or wrong to gain sympathy and control.

A woman might exaggerate or fabricate stories of how others have mistreated her to elicit your pity and support. This can make you feel compelled to protect and care for her often at the expense of your own needs and boundaries

4). Silence Treatment: The Silent treatment involves refusing to communicate or acknowledge your presence as a form of punishment, when a woman uses this tactic she creates a power imbalance by making you desperate for her attention and approval. This can lead you to apologize or concede to her demands even if you're not at fault just to end the uncomfortable silence and restore communication.

5). Triangulation: Triangulation is a tactic where a woman brings a third party into your relationship to create jealousy, competition or insecurity. she might flirt with someone else talk about another person's interest in her or compare you unfavorably to others. this can make you feel inadequate and drive you to go to great length to win her approval and keep her attention focused on you.

6). Withholding Affection: Withholding affection is when a woman deliberately denies you love attention or physical intimacy to punish you or get her way. By withdrawing affection She creates a sense of emotional deprivation that can make you more compliant to her wishes. This tactic exploits your natural Desire for closeness and approval making you more likely to submit to her demands to regain her affection.

these are the six darkest manipulation Tactics women used to control you. Know it and know Peace.
