1.7 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
To really collect important information towards the realization of this
project and to make an important contribution to Architecture, some
research activities had been carried out and data collected through;
§
Visits to existing paint factories site of the projects to determine
their production processes, organizational chart and determine the
requirement and conditions to be fulfilled in the setting up of such
factory.
§ Use of libraries, research institute, books, journals and unpublished manuscript of thesis reports.
§
Visits to relevant Government establishment like the ministry of
commerce and industry, for collection of data, byelaws, history and
other important information.
§ Personal interview of some people.
§ Internet.
1.8 LIMITATION OF RESEARCH
Due
to the limitation of standard paint factories in Nigeria, one is
limited to researching with only the small scale private paint
factories.
In researching with the private factories it was
discovered that the factories were over protective of their setting.
They feared that their competitors might get hold of information given
out for the research and have a hold over them. Some of them that
co-operated discourage photographs.
Also the fact that the country
is not in peace due to the Boko Haram and other threats, the factories
are conscious and at the same time trying to protect their life and
properties.
Materials on paint factories are not much available in
libraries, research institutes, records and documents on paint factories
in Nigeria.
1.9 IMPORTANCE OF THE PROJECT
The importance or the breaks through this project hope to achieve are:
· To provide a comprehensive setting for paint industry in
Nigeria in order to help improve the economy attains technology and
industrial independence.
· To create job opportunities for the increasing labour forces.
· It will help in saving foreign exchange by providing goods which would have been purchased abroad.
