ANALYSIS OF ENUGU COAL

ABSTRACT The project Analysis of Enugu Coal was done to determine the characteristic properties of Enugu Coal with particular emphasis on the proximate and ultimate analysis. Coal samples from the Enugu Coal (Onyeama) mine were obtained and pulverized.  The coal sample (pulverized) was subjected to proximate and ultimate analysis to determine its characteristic constituents. Analysis showed a volatile matter content of 37.46 weight percent, 7.10% moisture content, 8.3% ash content and 47.14...

CONSTRUCTION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF 6V ECHARGEABLE LAMP

ABSTRACT  Researchable lamp is a source of light that is generated from a D.C sources of supply this D.C sources is a battery that can also way be charged when it current and voltage ruse I decided to work on this as my project because its importance. It is very portable and help the a lot during night reading  It also serves as an immanency sources of light mostly when there is failure from out public power supply (P.H.C.N)    TABLE OF CONTENT Title page Approval page Acknowledgement Abs...

CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN OF A 6V RECHARGEABLE LAMP

ABSTRACT Man has been so used to electricity that he cannot do without it. The absence of electricity causes a lot of sadness in our daily lives. Due to this reason I decided to work on a by rechargeable lamp as my project. The project is to see how one can construct a source of high without really generating is from an A.C source. I decided to write on this project in order to saw how I can implement it during and after school for home and marketing purpose. This project is a lamp that was a...

THE WATER DRAINAGE PROBLEMS (A CASE STUDY OF IMT CAMPUS 3 ENUGU)

THE COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE MADE FROM VARIOUS AGGREGATE

ABSTRACT The work has gone a long way in determining strength of concrete made of various aggregates such as granites stone, black gravel, washed gravel and surface gravel. Some factors such as porosity of the  aggregate temperature causing loss of water plate form for mixing of concrete mix affect the workability and eventually the strength of concrete. This project work consist of using hydraulic machine to carryout the compressive test of the strength of concrete made of the earlier ment...

STRUCTURAL/REINFORCEMENT DETAILING OF A SINGLE STOREY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING WITH RETAINING WALL

PREFACEThis is the presentation of an information on the structural reinforcement detailing of concrete members.  Structural detailing is a branch of structural work that transposes the idea or works of a structural engineer into working drawing or easy utilization in the building construction works.  Working drawing are produced an engineer for easy use by the contractors.The processes detailing put in place was in conjunction with the recommendations of the concrete society and the instit...

STRUCTURAL DETAILING OF TWO STOREY BUILDING

PREFACE The whole information conveyed in this book has been planned and written for proper understanding of structural detailing of a building.  The approach in this book is to provide the readers sound and basic knowledge in structural detailing in a building. Consequently, I have given more details than is normally given in a book concerning detailing of structural members, which include slabs, beam, stairway and column.  This book will also provide some bases as a prerequisite in detai...

STRUCTURAL DETAILING OF A SINGLE STOREY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING WITH RETAINING IN ALL

PREFACE This project is mainly concerned with the presentation of information basically on the structural detailing of reinforced concrete members of a story building, in a sloppy land with a retaining wall.  Structural detailing is a branch of structural work that transposes the idea of works of a structural engineer into working drawings for easier utilization in the building construction.  Working drawings are drawings produced by engineers for easy execution of a plan by builders. The ...

STRUCTURAL DETAILING OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURE – DUPLEX

PREFACE In structural detailing, the project is initiated by the structural engineer. The architectural drawings are prepared by the architect to the required scale and specification given to him by the client. The structural engineer designs the structural frame work of the building and specification required such as slab, beam, column and foundation. For proper clearification and understanding, the structure is broken down into its component parts and detailed keeping in mind the design co...

INVESTIGATION ON THE CAUSES OF PAVEMENT FAILURE ALONG HILLVIEW OFF ESBS ROAD ENUGU

ABSTRACT One of the major problems facing the country is pavement failure. It is the concern of the Institute of Management and Technology (IMT) authorities to carryout a case study of pavement failure along Hillview off ESBS Road Enugu. The investigation show that the pavement failed both structural and functionally taking into consideration. The possible cause cure:- (a)Poor sub-grade & sub-base (b)Lack of maintenance culture (c)Poor drainage system  (d)Poor workmanship (e)Inaccurate  T...

GROUNDWATER DEVELOPMENT FOR PORTABLE WATER SUPPLY

ABSTRACT Groundwater hydrology may be defined as the science of the occurrence distribution, and movement of water below the surface of the earth.  Geochydrology has an identical connotation, and hydrogeology differs only by its greater emphasis on geology.  Utilization of groundwater dates from ancient times, although an understanding of the occurrence and movement of subsurface water as part of the hydrologic cycle has come only relatively recently. SCOPE:Groundwater referred to without ...

EFFECTS OF AGGREGATE SIZES ON THE CONCRETE STRENGTH

ABSTRACT In the sense that the materials involved in this project were capital intensive more especially cement, so in carrying out the work one must intensive to be careful in the selection and collection of materials to be used in the casting of the concrete. The materials used are coarse aggregate (granite) fine aggregate (sand). The coarse aggregates used in this work were collected from ishiagu while the fine aggregate was collected in front of the carpentry’s workshop on the cam...

DESIGN OF ROAD PAVEMENT LINKING FEDERAL SECRETARIAT INDUSTRIAL CENTRE AND MASS COMMUNICATION DEPARTMENT (IMT CAMPUS III) ENUGU

ABSTRACT This thesis on a project undertaken by the author is aimed at providing explanation of the basic theory of the  work of road design and its associated activities also, to cover practical methods of working. In pursuit of the meaningful completion this project a lot of investigation was embarked with principles and practice of road construction. The total distance of route was determined and stations established bearing in mind the intervisibility of the stations. Leveling was carri...

COMPARING THE STRENGHT AS BLOCKS MADE FROM (1) CEMENT AND LATERITIC SOIL (2) CEMENT AND RED EARTH (3) LATERITE, SAND AND RED EARTH

ABSTRACT This case study is “comparing the strength of blocks made from: cement stabilized laterite blocks, cement stabilized red earth blocks and sand,  red earth and laterite blocks and mud blocks dried in the kiln. This project implement the following analysis (1)To  effect  reduction to the  rise in market price of sand (fine aggregate), cement blocks to substitute literate blocks. (2)To determine the strength of the cement stabilized blocks of literate soil in the soil laborat...
