DEDICATION
This research project is dedicated to my dear parents, who gave me moral support as I conducted
my Studies. I dedicate also my all friends and almighty God for care and good health.
ii
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I extend my acknowledgment to the almighty God for the spiritual guidance during my course
study in coming up with this project. My regards also goes to my supervisor Mr. Sikoto juma for
his guidance that has resulted to the completion of this work.
Lastly, I’m grateful to my classmates and my entire family for their moral support, sacrifice and
patience that has made the going worthwhile.
To those who have contributed towards the success of this work, may Almighty God bless you.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
The design and construction to be done practical, economical and in conformity with the
construction regulations and must meet the client requirements and specifications, choice should
match existing structures and features of the site.
CLIENTS REQUIREMENTS

CHAPTER SUMMARY
1.0 SURVEYING
All the surveying details are given after a proper chaining procedure is undertaken. This gives the
information on the topographical location of physical features and leveling of the ground that
produced a contour map.
3.0ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS
In this chapter, block plan, site layout plans, floor plans, elevations and cross-sections are made. All
the information concerning windows and doors schedule is also provided in this chapter.
5.0 MEASUREMENT
Under this chapter there is to take off the quantities for the substructure works of the proposed
structure.
viii
7.0 SITE ORGANIZATION AND ADMINISTRATION.
This chapter entails the suite layout, method statement and detailed program for the construction
process.
8.0 SERVICES
The water provision for the construction and use by the client together with drainage system are
well defined
ix
CHAPTER ONE
1.0 SITE INVESTIGATION
I investigated the site and dug four trial holes each 3.00m deep and samples obtained in each
hole and labeled as A ,B ,and C respectively . I took the samples for testing, the results are
3. to determine the soil properties like stability and bearing capacity for its stability
4. To enable one to determine the effects that may be caused by construction work on
existing structures both on site and The following tests were carried out to determine
surrounding.
the soil was classified after plotting the graph shown on the table as it lie between sand as shown
1
A100N/M 3 result was found to be the bearing capacity of the soil sample after calculations . it
enhances the design of column bases of the buildings . from plasticity table , the soil is described
as inorganic clay of low plasticity . The soil is under medium clay which has a bearing range of
100-300kn/m3

CHAPTER TWO
2.0 SURVEYING
2.1 RECONNAISSANCE
This was carried out after visiting the site it was the pre-visit of the proposed site. The site was
upset for any demolition and cut down trees respectively. A sample sketch was drawn to provide
to provide a means of guidance and views of the site henceforth, the site was free from any
obstacles since there was no building or structure to demolish and trees to cut down to clear the
site .
A branch of survey establish by linear measurement. Chain survey was carried out to obtain
a) reconnaissance
d) actual survey
e) recording or booking
f) plotting

CONTOURING
Was done using Height of collimation method .i.e. established reduced levels at each point in
reference to TBM=100
Equipment used include
1 .Automatic level
2.Tripod
3 .Level rod
4 .Wire flags
5.Calculators
5
6 .Field note book
Procedure
a) Field procedure
Layout the grid by pacing or approximate measurements along the perpendiculars ,setting
a wire flag or temporary marker every 20 ft . ensure that you have the same number of
markers per row on the ground as you do in your field book .
set up the the level near the centre of your parcel so that back sight and foresight is
approximately balanced .
back sight to a parcel corner in order to established the elevation of the level . the
elevation data for the parcel corner can be found in your field note book from the level
lab
once the elevation of the instrument is established , observe side shots to each of the
flagged points . simply place the rod on the ground next to each flagged point , plumb
it ,and take a reading on the rod . you only need to record the middle wire reading .
when all observable points have been collected , take a foresight reading onto another
parcel corner [on the back sight point ].there should be less than 0.01 ft. error between BS
–FS readings and the known elevation
b) Plotting procedure
a, Identify alongside of your parcel and use this your baseline with one end point as your
baseline point . A line perpendicular to it at the base point is your other grid axis in the field ,
a. using this axes as your baseline , draw a 20 ft. grid in your field book following the
example attached to this alignment . start the grid outside the parcel and continue across
the parcel until you are outside the opposite side . your grid should be perpendicular lines
b. label the grid coordinates and create a table in your notes in order to facilitate organized
data collection .see the attached example bellow

CHAPTER SEVEN
SERVICES
INTRODUCTION
The building site can be considered a temporary factory, where the building is produced
this activity to take place the builder requires men, materials and plants. All these have to be
carefully controlled so that the men have the right machine in the most adequate position, the
materials stored so that they are readily available and not interfering with the general site
circulation a building and the total size of the site on which the building is to be erected.
Therefore is no standard size ratio between the free site spaces required considered as a
separation problem in terms of allocating space for men, materials and plant. To obtain
maximum efficiency there is an optimum way of laying out the site and also a correct amount of
Hence 30x50
=1500 Litres
Storm water
Surface run-off water will flow through open channels up the sewer/ disposal

2. RETICULATION SYSTEM
Waste water will flow throw combined system of sewer while clean water will flow through
The drainage system will be self cleaning, easy to repair and maintain.
