Getting Mercs on Olaf is kinda, Meh! Nice for when the ult is not up, but waste of space when it is, go for Berserkers or Tabi instead. Getting TBC SV and IG in 1 build will push you to have 50% CDR when you reach pot stage, I'd suggest scratching 1 of these off. Personally I would trade in IG for Tri-Force, since you already build FM.

For tanky build I personally still like Atma's Impaler, since it grows in threat the more health you build. And it also helps complete your build faster trough Avarice Blade... I would still build him fighter with something like:
 * Atma's Impaler (core
 * Trinity Force (core
 * Maw of Malmortius (core
 * Offensive health item (optional; FM, TBC, ZH
 * Defensive health item (optional; RO, SC, SV, locket
 * Boots (Choose 1

With such an outlook you have your core to beef up while still dealing damage. And you can still increase damage and defense with optional items. Remember, each game is different, adapt or die.
