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... Continue Reading

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... Continue Reading

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... Continue Reading

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... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Domestic water supply is a daily necessity and key factor in human health and well-being. Without water, life cannot be sustained and lack of access to adequate water supplies leads to wide spread of diseases with children bearing the greatest health burden associated with poor water quality and sanitation. Drinking water is water that is... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT In an attempt to reduced non-renewable material usage, reduce green-house substances and at the same time be relevant to our environment, this research presents the progress of investigation going on to evaluate some properties of POEBA as partial replacement of cement in the production of structural concrete. This research work is... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Agro-based and bio-wastcs generally referred to as solid wastes are good stabilization materials. Different solid wastes have been used by various researchers combining two or more at different times to treat soil and improve its engineering properties since the long term performance of any construction project depends on the soundness of...

ABSTRACT The Reuse of waste glass in concrete production is among the attractive option of achieving waste reduction and preserving the natural resources from further depletion thereby protecting the environment and achieving sustainability. This present study examined the variation in the strength prope1ties of concrete using waste glass... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The condition and adequacy of the highway is often _judged by the smoothness or roughness of the pavement, deficient pavement conditions can result in increased user costs and travel delays, unnecessary braking and fuel consumption, vehicle repairs and probability of increased crashes. Pavement failure is usually a result of several... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Environmental pollution with petroleum and petrochemical products has been recognized as one of the most important and serious challenges facing environment engineers. Disposal from mechanic sites, accidental leakages from petroleum carrying ships, vandalization of pipelines, have all contributed to the current common oil pollution in... Continue Reading

The present research discusses a problem of seal damages in dam gates due to  influence of water flow through sluices passage way. The low level sluices (L.L.S) of  Merowe dam were taken as a research field to investigate the influence of flow on the  gate seal. The core of the problem is that the rubbery seal of L.L.S gates is damaged  and... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT In this research work, Bioremediation technology was used to reduce the heavy contents of the soil collected from the bank of the sewage pond of the University of Nigeria Nsukka. The heavy metals were; zinc (Zn) cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pd). In the bioremediation process, fungi, bacteria and plants were used. The bacteria used were Bacillus... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The development and utilization of energy has led to environmental degradation with associated health hazard. Hence the trust of this project is to optimize energy mix in a reliable, affordable, available, safe, efficient, effective and sustainable way at control cost subject to environmental constraints. In other to achieve the desired... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This project is designed to determine households’ access to safe water supply in Ootunja,  Ikole-Ekiti, in terms of quality and quantity as the importance of improved 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... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This research project investigates the geotechnical characteristics of soils in Federal University Oye Ekiti, lkole campus. In this research project, disturbed soil samples were obtained from five labelled TP 1, TP 2, TP 3, TP 4, TP 5 at different locations and at various intervals along the university and were taken to laboratory for...
