    • 1.2     STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
      A certain condition or factor can make a soil or structure / building to loose their Sharpe effectively or ineffectively attain their maximum structural physical and economic life span. It has been seen that a number of fact observed to be responsible for the in-adequate or in-appropriate functioning channeling of sewage surface nun off water at the due time. These in turn expose the building site to the danger of erosion which accelerate their dilapidation. Among the factors or improper channeling / neglect of natural sewage system and obstruction of natural sewage by building without following the local authorities rules dropping of refuse in the drainage ways. Erosion plays a critical role in dilapidation of building and visible in construction industry as one of the most serious defect in contemporary residential buildings. All soils can suffer erosion but some are more vulnerable than others. Soils with dispersible subsoils, for example, are subject to serious erosion by funneling and gully formation.
      1.3     RESEARCH AIMS AND OBJECTIVE
      The major purpose of this study is to determine. The effective way of controlling erosion in a construction site prone to erosion problem.
      1)      Identity the various causes of erosion in building sites.
      2)      Examine the appropriate materials and (new and old) used in controlling the erosion.
      3)      Determine the most appropriate materials and techniques required for the controlling it.
      4)      To recommend measure if implemented will lead to effective control of erosion in a construction  
      1.4     RESEARCH QUESTIONS
      The study sought to answer the following research questions
      1)      What are nature and various causes of erosion in building sites
      2)      What are the process to be applied in erosion control.
       3)     What are the  various types of materials to be used in controlling erosion
      4)      If implemented will lead to effective control of erosion in an erosion prone site
