ABSTRACT Rural roads constitute about 65% of the Uganda road network, which provide a critical link in the road transport network, facilitating access to and development of the rural areas. Traffic volume on rural roads in Uganda is very low, 90 % of the rural road network has an Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) less than 200, with an average road width of about 5.0 meters. The main problem facing the development of rural roads lies in the method of construction. Common methods used includ...

In the course of employing decline curves to predict future oil production rates, there is a need to first determine the initial flowrate which often times presents an extent of difficulty especially for harmonic and hyperbolic decline trends. Conventional methods of initial flowrate determination require extrapolation of charts on study or spreadsheets which is time consuming. It is therefore essential to provide an algorithm that would help speed up initial flowrate calculations. This study...
ABSTRACTSecurity of life and property cannot be over emphasized. Human beings need privacy in their various homes and offices which necessitate the need for doors among other security service. It has been a major challenge for the people to have door of high quality and that are also durable at affordable prices by an average Nigerian. This project was done purposely to fabricate a metal panel door of high quality capable of giving maximum securities to life and properties at affordable price...
ABSTRACTGroundnut shelling machine was designed and fabricated at the department of Mechanical Engineering, institute of Technology, Kwara State Polytechnic Ilorin aimed at increasing shelling/decorticating efficiency and eliminating drudgery associated with the traditional method of -shelling groundnut and other developed method such as pedal operated methods. The machine is powered by a 1.5 horse power motor at a speed of 1440 revolution per minute. Performance investigation carried out sho...
ABSTRACTThis project is on the design and fabrication of deep freezer for the preservation of items/products and making the items to cool. The project is able to develop a simple efficient economical and environmental friendly refrigeration system (A freezer) towards better technological advancement in Nigeria. This project modifies the existing refrigeration system with the use of R-600a which is ozone friendly, and non-contaminant like previous refrigerant of the hydrofluoric-carbon, HFC an...
ABSTRACTThis project, Eradication of Environmental Pollution, (a case study of Kwara, Osun, Industries). Pollution is a very terrible phenomenon as it does more harm to human health and environment, or pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the surrounding to cause discomfort to the Ecosystem. Industrial pollution, which is a branch of pollution, occurs mostly in towns as a result or rapid urbanization, geometrical increase, in human needs and industrial development which has a co...

1.0 INTRODUCTION This project deals with the design and production of ceiling board using Plaster of Paris [POP] gypsum materials. Plaster of Paris [POP] is a white powdery mixture of gypsum. It has been named such because the first deposit of gypsum was found in Paris. This powder when mixed with water solidifies, but without losing its volume. During manufacturing process, the gypsum is heated and as such, it does not necessarily require any high heat treatment like ceramics and clays [Worr...

ABSTRACTPrisoners’ management in Nigeria has long been a neglected area and has only recently been included in the 20-20 vision document under the e-governance. Currently, prisoner’s records are maintained in a very rudimentary way in the form of manual files and registers. This method of data management often results in human error, delay to retrieve information etc. Thus, An Online Prison Management System was designed and implemented to manage prisoner’s records for the Nigerian pris...
