CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER ONE 1.0   INTRODUCTION    Steel is a man-made material containing 95% of iron. The remaining constituent are small amount of element derived from the raw-material use in the making of the steel, as well as other element added to improve certain characteristics or properties of the product (Marcus, 1964).   Steel reinforcement are used generally in the form of bars of circular cross-section in concrete structure. They are like a skeleton in human body. Plain concrete without s ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 10 ]CHAPTER TWO2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW2.1 NIGERIAN STEEL INDUSTRY (HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT)Planning for the Nigerian steel industry started around 1958. Many international Organizations and consulting firms had been commissioned at various times to study the feasibility of steel plants under the aegis of the Federal Ministry of Industries In 1971 an extra-ministerial agency was established by Decree to focalize efforts required to actualize a steel plant. The agency was called ‘Nigerian Steel Dev ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]3.3.2 Principle of OperationWith every 2 revolutions made on the hand or motor driven gear box of high mechanical advantage, a force of 20kN (2000kgf) is applied to a test piece held in the chuck pins. The force deflects the spring beam and this deflection operates a level acting on a piston in a cylinder containing mercury. It should be noted that the mercury inside the sleeve must be at zero point before the drive is made, and this can be alone using the mercury adjuster. The recording graph i ... Continue reading---

CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION From the test carried out and the results obtained, the average yield strength for specimens diameter of 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm, 2Omm and 25mm were 79N/mm2, 225 N/mm2, 261 N/mm2, 277 N/mm2, 295 N/mm2 and 297 N/mm2 respectively. It was therefore observed that specimen of 8mm and 10m do not meet the BS8110 specification of 250 N/mm2 for mild steel.However, the analysis shows that the average ultimate strength obtained for the specimens of 8mm, 10mm 12mm ...
