I know "konstriksyon" is construction in english. But my Indiana University Kreyol dictionary does not have the word constriction in it, or at least I cannot find it. This dictionary is exhaustive for Kreyol, but it is that; Kreyol only, not an english to Kreyol. Would you please tell me the Kreyol word for constriction? Mesi anpil.

You are right, I haven't found the English word "constriction" in any Haitian Creole dictionaries that I've come across.
constriction → retresisman, kontraksyon
constrict - resere, ratresi

how to you say "to" in Creole when saying -from the ceiling to the floor-? I'm tempted to say "de twati a a ate a", but the two "a" happening back to back here seems confusing..

You can use JOUK, JOUS, JISKA, RIVE in this case.

Depi nan plafon an jouk atè a.
Depi nan plafon an jisk'atè a.
Sot nan plafon an rive atè a. or sot nan plafon rive jous atè a*
The very last example is more like *"from the ceiling all the way to the floor"

"Ou pa konn sa m peze' seems to have nothing to do with weight or scale. am i right? if yes, what does it mean then?

Most likely it does not.  And you're probably asking because you realized that if you translated as "weight ....and such" it would not fit into whatever you're reading.
If this is the case, then it means "you do not know my strength /what I can do/ who you're dealing with/ etc..."

Eske ou kapap di fraz sa konsa; "m pa poko fe li" or "m pa fe li poko"?

poko se yon mo negatif li ye.  Li vle di not .... yet.  Sètadi ou pa bezwen me te mo "PA" a lè w ap itilize l.

pa egzanp:
1. I have not eaten yet.
    olye pou w di
   M pa poko manje.
   ou va di
    M poko manje.

men yon lòt egzanp.
2. We have never seen anything like it.
     No poko janm wè yon bagay parèy.
    Nou pa mete "pa" nan fraz la.

Ou kapab wè mo "poko" a ekri diferan fason nan lang Kreyòl la.
Gen moun ki di poko, gen lòt ki di pako, gen lòt menm ki di ponkò; ou kapab menm jwenn moun ki di panko
Enpitou lè w ap itilize tan pase a ou va di patko oubyen pa te ko.

pa egzanp
3. Mwen patko wè fim nan, se pou sa mwen te vle ale wè l avèk nou.
    I had not seen the movie yet, that's why I wanted to go see it with you.

Does 'raje' translates 'empty land', 'empty lot' or 'empty green space'? Creole lingo gives definitions like 'backwoods', 'field', 'forest', etc. which could be used in the following context, but I am not sure. For example, "Back in the fifties, this neighborhood used to be nothing but empty land(or land)." or "Back then, this part of the beach, used to be an empty lot before they build a store there." Does 'raje' translates 'wasteland' as well? For example, "Ten years of drought had left the area a wasteland" Because I would hear Haitians used 'raje' for wasteland. If it is not the case, than what are some approriate words for 'wasteland'?

raje - brushwood, thicket
example: 
Yo te netwaye lakou a, yo te retire tout raje yo.
They cleaned the yard and removed all the shrub thickets

raje - sometimes people use it as synonymous to 'rak bwa'
example:  
Mesye a sove.  Li pran raje pou li.
The man ran away.  He took to the woods.
