answers | Commonly wooden planks/steel sheets are used for roof slab shuttering. However this always doesn't give a good finish and also needs plastering, which causes further problem of chipping away in a few years.An other alternative is to use Film faced plywood material, which would give an excellent finish and if done well the plastering could be even avoided and just a suitable painting could be appli. |

answers | Anurag,I guess your concern is to protect the marble floor as well against possible damages due to ladder, scaffold etc. Usually it is better too apply a layer of plaster of paris over the marble floor so that it protects against any damages. Cover the sharp objects such as ladder feet etc with a rubber sheet or thick cloth to protect against damage to the floor. The plaster of paris could be late. |

answers | For my proposed home in Chennai instead of traditional plastering of the ceiling slab, I am planning to cover this with gypsum board false ceiling for all rooms except bathroom which would be in aluminium false ceiling. The walls also would be plastered only to a height of 6 inches above the proposed false ceiling level (about 8 feet). The cost saved on plastering and painting could help me in us. |

answers | Nowadays you can complete the basic plastering and you can use artificial tiles of your choice which would provide you the exact look of a brick wall, with much better finish which has a variety of choice in the market. Just take a look at the samples I've attached.
The cheapest method is as suggested by the other respondent, but getting a good finish may be an issue, unless you use wire cut bri. |

answers | Hi Annette
These kinds of oven and many more products can be checked out in the following link below. However it is my opinion that it would be better to buy a standalone oven as these are prone to maintenance and replacement over a period. Such concealed mounting would look great, but can have hassles of removal in case of maintenance, to find replacement of same type/size etc..

answers | The overall cost depends on the area you would like to build (GF+FF). The cost I am hearing is about 1500-1800/sq ft depending on the area finish etc. Further such sloped roofing could steeply increase on the overall budget.
No doubt the arch design is good, however I am not sure how practical it would be for India as such houses are made for European kind which doesn't have boundary walls etc . |
