What are the Most Cost Effective Building Material for Restaurants in Nigeria?

[Jasz]

Restaurants in Nigeria operate under a challenging set of conditions. Though the economy is seeing some growth, per capita income is still low and access to resources is limited. Those operating a restaurant or planning to do so must take these factors into account when deciding what materials will be most cost effective for their space.

In addition to the economic conditions, restaurants in Nigeria need to consider safety factors when selecting materials people use. An alternative to bricks that may be worth considering is bamboo. Bamboo grows quickly and abundantly in Nigeria, and has proven itself able to hold up well against strong winds or harsh weather, it has high tensile strength too. If built with skill, it looks good.
It has proven itself to be an effective material for many buildings in the region over time, but it also requires highly skilled labor to work effectively and safely. You will only bother about the money used in getting the bamboo and paying unskilled workers—poor craftsmanship can lead to damage. This risk needs to be factored into the overall cost before making a final decision. What do you think, do have other cost effective and beautiful alternative?
