HI

construction of house is very difficult task. leave it to some expert who is doing construction work. construction material and accessories availibilty is not easy for that you can't save money,basic fundamentals you can't implement.

if realy like so go and work with builder/ developer and  gain knoledge of design, specification, cast control,material management and manpower managment etc

best of luck  

Answer 2

Making a home is not a child's play. It must meet the applicable local building and construction codes - which must be approved by the local governing body before work starts - therefore its better to leave it to the professionals - unless you live in an area where there are no rules and regulations.

Even then you will be jeopardizing your own safety.
