ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF A RETAINING WALL

ABSTRACTRetaining walls are structures used  in providing stability for earth or materials where conditions this allow the materials from summing its natural slope or stability.There are many factors affecting or militating against the stability of retaining walls. These includes the level of water table behind the wall, size of the base of the wall and nature of the soil retained.Under these effects of he nature of soil. We have the angle of internal content between the particles, the cohes...

FABRICATION OF THE A METALLIC BOOKSHELF

ABSTRACT  Knowledge could only be obtained successively by the use of books for research. This can be achieved only by preserving books already purchased. As a result we fabricate a metallic shelf made up of metallic sheet. Precisely mild steel sheets. The mild steel used for the fabrication of the shelf is 1.5mm (16gauge) mild steel.  The shelf is made up of 3 partition. In fabricating the metallic shelf several process where involved. We plundered on the material to be used that can hold...

CONSTRUCTION OF A SCREW CONVEYOR WITH A SINGLE PHASE ELECTRIC MOTOR

ABSTRACT In the society at large Technology is fast replacing the crude method of carrying out work and has been making room for employment. Besides, it has also caught the attention of the youths who will prefer to work in a company with technological operations than one with man-power operations. This project can be used to convey materials ranging from those in powdery forms grit forms, and stones in the size of crushed granites. If applied to the foundry technology practical (sand mould)...

CONSTRUCTION OF A POTABLE ELECTRIC OPERATED WITH RADIO CONTROL (WIRELESS REMOTE) MOTOR VEHICLE FOR LONG VALVE BUS

ABSTRACT  Construction of a potable electric operated motor vehicle for long Volvo Bus. In this project involves the knowledge of mechanical engineering workshop technology and engineering material science and strength. This was exactly what we were taught. We contracted the electric car with the actual dimension of long Volvo bus(Ml-) got from the catalogue and we enlarged the scale by 1: 8mm. aluminum cord was used in the construction of the vehicle body because of its light weight and it...
