CHAPTER ONE    1.0  INTRODUCTION  The construction of structure on weak ground often requires the soil to be improved in order to ensure the safety and the stability of surrounding buildings. The ground improvement in granular soils can be achieved by different methods such as vibro-floatation, compaction piles, and compaction with... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The current extensive use of low quality aggregate in Nigerian road for engineering applications is of concern because their appear to be a level of ignorance surrounding their existing properties and implications. This project was conceived for the purpose of comparing the crushed aggregate deposits in Isi-Agu Abia State and mac-Daniels... Continue Reading

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...

Abstract In countries where industrialization is on the rise there is a corresponding increase in waste production resulting from industries which eventually upsetsthe environment and community for which they provide. While most of these waste generated are hazardous and should be managed, others could be put to appropriate use either directly or... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This project was undertaken to determine the geotechnical properties of soils along Appleton/Zoo road. A total of nine (9) samples, both disturbed and undisturbed, were collected at chainages - 0+275, 0+325 and 0+525 respectively and each drilled to a depth of 1 m and at sampling depths of 0–0.3 m, 0.3–0.6m and 0.6–1.0 m...

ABSTRACT Soil is the ultimate foundation material which supports the structure. The proper functioning of the structure will, therefore, depend on the engineering properties of the underlying soil. The objectives of this research are to investigate the engineering properties of soils found in the site by conduction different types of laboratory... Continue Reading

CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of Study There is need for affordable building materials in providing adequate housing for teaming populace of the world. The cost of conventional building materials continue to increase asmajority of the population continues to fall below the poverty line. Thus, there is the need tosearch for local... Continue Reading

  ABSTRACT Not only do soils serves as underfoot\' for roads, airfields. train tracks, and houses that sustain our complex society: Engineers, typically geotechnical engineers, classify soils recording to their engineering properties as they relate to its use as foundation support building material. The study of geotechnical characterization of... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT It has been clearly identified that one of the agent that easily deteriorate building structure, weaken the strength of the component of building and shorten the life-span of building is “DAMP”, which may occur in different dimension therefore, this project is centred on causes of damp, prevention of damp and the necessary treatment...
