DESIGN OF TWO BEDROOM FLAT BUNGALOW

Thesis Overview

<p> </p><p>Design is a critical aspect of civil engineering works. Drafting and drawing is essential for building and any construction works. However, efficient and effective erection of bungalows requires design consideration to satisfy the functional requirements of building and code of practice. Moreover, all the living units are on single compartments between the living areas.</p><p>According to (Wikipedia.com), Bungalows is a type of building originally refer to any single family unit as opposed to an apartment building which is the norm for middle class city dwellers thus drafting, drawing and design of bungalow is a necessity.</p><p><strong>1.5 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Background to the Study</strong></p><p>Obviously, Bungalow is one of the most common structures both in rural and urban area. Practically speaking, erection of buildings in an environment is as important as in relation to development and civilization which cannot be over emphasized as history testifies that the provision of building is necessary to draw an environment out of the state fo underdevelopment. (Desau, M. et al. 2016).</p><p>Nevertheless, although land use plan in this modern world with technological advancement can be use for high-rise structure such as a single storey building having first floor with a stain for light between apartments. The thought of high-rise structure is base on the fact that it can accommodate more people on a small piece of land but still, Bungalow is the most commonest and less expensive to construct. A storey structure without a staircase for flight between apartments is considered to be a Bungalow. (wikipedia.com).</p><p>According to Downing, F et al (1981), Drafting, drawing and design of bungalow is necessary for efficient and effective erecttion as the plan serve as a building guide. Drafting and design of bungalows is based on the assumption that the geometry of deformation of section will be coherent under any given types of loading.</p><p>In line with the above points, Desai M. et al (2016), ascertain another reason for drafting, drawing and design of bungalows. Geometry deformation is a gesture always side with the basic functional requirements that make bungalows appealing for occupants. Such functional requirement includes weather and fire, resistance, good compressive strength, low cost economic purpose, serviceability state and ease access to an age people etc. these measures make bungalows the most preffered and easiest structure to be occupants.</p><p><strong>1.6 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Problems of the Study</strong></p><p>Problem of constructing an appealing bungalows cannot be over emphasized, Bungalows has a detrimental phenomenon of geometry deformation fo section under any given types of loadings as against the basic functional requirements. This gesture required appropriate design of bungalows to fulfill its intended purpose.</p><p><strong>1.7 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Research Question of the Study</strong></p><p>The following relevant research questions relating to the subject matter were constructed and asked accordingly on an open-end basis to allow for many information as could be divulges by respondents. Such research questions include consideration of <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.modishproject.com/assessment-of-the-utilization-of-local-building-materials-in-jalingo-metropolis/">building plan under modern design </a>methods. The question includes:</p><ol><li>Why is preparation of building plan necessary before embarking on any building structure?</li><li>Should functional requirements from code of practice be a consideration during design of building plan?</li><li>How does modern design method affect design completion time and cost effective?</li><li>Does improper design of bungalows be a problem fo geometry deformation?</li><li>Due to time, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.modishproject.com/stress-coping-practices-among-university-of-undergraduates/">cost and stress constraints</a>, should modern design technique be considered as a professional practice?</li><li>How can professional practice be encouraged?</li></ol><p><strong>1.8 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Aims and Objectives</strong></p><p><strong>1.8.1 &nbsp; &nbsp; Aim</strong></p><p>The aim of this research study is to draft, draw and designs two bedroom flat bungalow at Civil engineering department using modern technique as against traditional method.</p><p><strong>1.8.2 &nbsp; &nbsp; Objectives</strong></p><p>The following objectives shall be met on the course of this research study. They are:</p><ol><li>The minimize cost, time and stress constraint.</li><li>To maximize profit in the entire expenditure.</li><li>To design based on code of practice for <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.modishproject.com/implementation-of-health-and-safety-policies-in-construction-of-high-rise-building-in-kaduna-metropolis/">bungalow structures.</a></li><li>To ascertain the basic functional requirement.</li><li>To control the geometry deformation to section to structure under any type to loading.</li><li>Carrying out cost estimate of two bedrooms flat.</li></ol><p><strong>1.9 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Limitation of the Study</strong></p><p>The following parameters are factors that cause limitation of this research study they are:</p><ol><li>Cost constraint</li><li>Time constraint</li><li>Stress constraint.</li></ol> <br><p></p>
