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... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT In an attempt to reduce 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 EPO-FBA as partial replacement of cement in the production of structural concrete. This research work is... Continue Reading

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 have 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... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The purpose of this project work is to assess the strength of No-fines concrete pavement. No-Fines concrete is use in low traffic volume, pathways, sidewalk and parking lots. No-fines concrete is produced by using ordinary Portland cement, coarse aggregates, and water. In this study, Two (2) batches of no-fines concrete each with two... Continue Reading

This study attempted to establish the effect of unionization on employees’ performance in  family owned businesses in Kenya. The need to manage employee performance every day is  the key to an effective performance management system. The researcher specifically sought  to establish the effect of union mediated in compensation on performance... Continue Reading

This project work aims at formulating Scheffe’s mathematical model which prescribes concrete mix ratios for a desired compressive strength of periwinkle shell aggregate concrete and obtaining the combination of water, cement, river sand and periwinkle shell which will produce the optimum strength. The model was formulated from first principle... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This study investigated the corrosion resistance of steel reinforcement in two types of concrete mixtures – ordinary Portland (OPC) used for concrete and clay pozzolana cement (CPC) used for concrete. These two concrete types were exposed to 3% and 5% (W/V) of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) and 3% (W/V) Calcium Hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2) that... Continue Reading
