this is the first draft of the manual pad. its length is slightly shorter than the ledge, about 1feet shorter. why shorter? we're thinking about using a stock angle iron (just one piece) which is about 8 feet long, so i gotta design according to the angle iron's length.
it is less than 1 feet high but it'll be much wider than the ledge. by utilizing the length of the bricks, i try to avoid the amount of bricks needed to be broken and so that's why the pad will be extra wider (isn't that good?? :p).

materials needed for current design:
- 80 bricks (68 bricks to be exact)
- 2 bags of cement ($18 = 2 x $9)
- 2 tongs of fine sand for brick work ($8 = 2 x $4)
- lots of sea sand for filling
- 2 tongs of fine sand for plastering ($8 = 2 x $4)
TOTAL $80,000
(just kidding lol)
$34 of fine sand and cement
excluding cost of bricks
i maybe overestimating the number of sand to be used but from the previous project, we find that we are always lacking in sand, i think its better to have a little extra in that.
btw, sorry, i could not go for the discussion just now, this is what i wanted to tell you guys actually.
