CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.01 (Background of the study) According to Luke chapter 14 verses 28-30 which says for which of you intending to build a tower siteth not down first and counteth the cost whether he have sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it began to mock him. The above quotation from the Bible summarizes the problem of abandoned project after committing huge financial resources on them a...
ABSTRACT This project, Design and production of ceiling board using Plaster of Paris (POP) Gypsum materials. Gypsum is basically the raw material required in the manufacturing Plaster of Paris (POP) which posses an outstanding property and a good material for producing ceiling board. The materials procured for the project are plaster of Paris, fiber, water and mould. The equipment used for the project are scrapper, measuring tape, mixing bowl, bucket. Firstly, water was poured into the co...

ABSTRACT Since it is compulsory that people and goods move from one part of the country to the other or within particular defined regional area, the facilities used for this purpose need to be well planned, designed and constructed. Inadequate and unplanned traffic control constitute a lot of problems resulting in delay, congestion, immobility to uneasy access to transport etc. This project is to determine the headway and average travel speed of vehicles (Case study of post office- Kwara Sta...
ABSTRACT This project work examined the water demand and supply in Egbejila area of Ilorin west local government, Kwara State. The three main users of water focused upon in the study area are residential, commercial (block industry, hair salon, food canteen) and agricultural water use. Also, the three main sources of water available to the users i.e. borehole, pipe borne water and well water supplies were investigated to determine the effectiveness of these sources of water in meeting up ...
ABSTRACT Atmospheric emission of trace gases such as carbon (iv) oxide (co4), carbon (II) oxide (co), methane (ch4) e.t.c. associated with animal waste are world wild problem and may contribute to a detrimental impact on the environment in such a way that millions of people will be affected especially poor people who live in precarious location or depend on land for sustenance living. And this effect was determined by modeling the effect of trace gases on the environment. The two (2) main a...
ABSTRACT Metro Rail is a mass rapid transportation system and also environment friendly. It is also a modern technology for transportation. To overcome the future demand and to make a short and less time consuming transportation system, Bangladesh Government has taken this project. It is a fast and time saving transportation system which is really needed for Dhaka. This study covers to find out geotechnical investigation and to compare the pile bearing capacity load between ...
ABSTRACT A bridge is a structure built to span physical obstacles without closing the way underneath such as a body of water, valley, or road, for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle. There are many different designs that each serve a particular purpose and apply to different situations. Designs of bridges vary depending on the function of the bridge, the nature of the ten-ain where the bridge is constructed and anchored, the material used to make it, and the funds available t...
ABSTRACT The importance of concrete in modem society cannot be underestimated. There is no escaping from the impact of concrete on everyday life. Concrete is a composite material which is made of filler and a binder. Typical concrete is a mixture of fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (rock), cement, and water. Nowadays the usage of concrete is increasing from time to time due to the rapid development of construction industry. The usage of concrete is not only in building construction bu...
ABSTRACT This study investigates the influence of two main geotechnical properties of soils in the town of Ikole-Ekiti on civil engineering construction. The strength and compaction characteristics of the natural soil were determined. The investigation was carried out through laboratory tests on disturbed and undisturbed soil samples obtained from four trial pits (Samples A, B, C & D) in the town, across Ilotin, Ijemo-Titun, Yeye-Oba and Asin respectively. The samples were collected between ...
ABSTRACT This project is designed to determine households' access to domestic water supply via mechanical and non-mechanical energy system in Usin, Ikole local government area Ekiti State Nigeria, in terms of quality and quantity as the importance of adequate safe water supply to human health cannot be over emphasized. However, safe/improve water supply to most Nigerian cities is still inadequate. In the study area the relationship between water quality the degree of water source protecti...
ABSTRACT Assessing the geotechnical parameters helps in improving the soil settlement which usually causes damage to the civil structure. Compaction is one of the most important and routine engineering techniques, performed to assure the safety and stability of soils. In this study, geotechnical investigations at the lkole campus of Federal University Oye-Ekiti, Ekiti State are carried out for undisturbed and ·disturbed samples obtained at five (5) specified locations and at a depths of t...
