      5.0    SELECTION OF MATERIAL, FABRICATION DETAIL AND ASSEMBLY.
      SELECTION OF MATERIAL: when it comes to selection of material both engineer and technician can face a lot of problem, because any material to be selected for a particular work must meet up with the requirement of the output i.e. the right material should be selected for the right job.
          In selection of any material in engineering, the material to be selected must meet the following properties:
          Mechanical properties.
          Physical properties.
          Corrosion resistance.
          Economical properties.
          Environmental properties.`
      5.1        MECHANICAL PROPERTIES: This is the properties of material which is displayed when force is applied to the material. Such as:
          Strength:  These are the properties to be considered to know the rate at which a material will sustain when subjected to weight of load.
          Any material to be selected should be of high wearing resistance i.e. it should have long life span.
          Ductility:  This is the ability of material to be subjected to tensile forces or drawn into wire. However, cold plastic deformation may occur. Brittleness: This is the tendency of a material to fracture when subjected to strain or shear force.
      5.2        PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: These are a property that is to be determined by physical occurrence of any material. Such as:
          Thermal Conductivity: Thermal conductivity is the ability of material to conduct heat.
          Electrical Conductivity: This is the ability of material to conduct electricity because some material need to be conductor for a particular purpose while some need to be coated before employed for a specific purpose.
          Weld Ability: This is the property of material to be welded and joined together e.g. any material to be employed for the fabrication of metal panel door must be the one that is wieldable i.e. having the welding ability.
      5.3        CORROSION RESISTANCE: This is the ability of material to resist corrosion due to electrochemical or chemical reaction when come in contact with damp or wet surface or water.
      5.4        ECONOMICAL PROPERTIES: This as to be done with the cost of material, fabrication cost and maintenance because some materials are economically cost while some are cheap. 
      In selecting any material we must first look into the cost of such material, and cost of machining and production such material is likely to undergo.
      5.5    ENVIRONMENTAL PROPERTIES: Before selecting any material the environment in which the material is to be used is to be considered first e.g. An environment where there is free movement of little children a glass door should not be installed there as the machine that close and open an entrance because it is very risky for their health, they can also throw stone and break it off: while doing this,   they can harm themselves which will now lead to additional cost.

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTSecurity of life and property cannot be over emphasized. Human beings need privacy in their various homes and offices which necessitate the need for doors among other security service. To has been a major challenges for the people to have door of high quality and that are also durable at affordable prices by an average Nigerian. This project was done purposely to fabricate a metal panel door of high quality capable of giving maximum securities to life and properties at affordable price. ... Continue reading---

      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER ONE1.0    INTRODUCTIONMany years ago, different types of doors were in use, which includes doors made of woods or grasses. These doors were made to meet the purpose of security to both life and properties. It was later discovered that doors made of wood do not last longer. They have short life span and they can easily get burnt. More so, considering the rate at which armed robbers break into houses in our society, one would regret that wooden doors and grass doors gave them the chance ... Continue reading---
