| dc.description.abstract | This thesis is intended to investigate and explore the various architectural problems and the processes involved in Furniture Making and to provide some suitable solutions. Basically, the programme is aimed at covering up the design of a furniture factory for the production of school and office furniture to be sited at the light Industrial area of Zaria, The choice of Zaria as a site for locating the factory is not accidential. All necessary facilities needed for such an industry such as good roads, railways and railsiding are available and this will ease the problem of transporting both the starting materials and the products The site itself is dominated by similar light industries and ensures the availability of necessary services that the factory will require. The principal starting materials are Ace Metal and Timber which are abundant in the country. With commissioning of Ajaokuta Steel Factory in 1983 and booster given by some states governments in the country for wood plantations, the starting materials will be readily available. Considering the rate of unemployment in the country, the potentials of steel and timber production and the ovious need for a system of distribution to the ever increasing demand, the important role which an industry of this nature will play in providing employment and distribution system for steel, Timber and their products in the country needs not be over emphasised. As the 198O is seen as an industrial development era in the country and being a Nigerian, I am of the opinion that this project will expose me to the problems of industrial design generally and that of furniture industry in particular; thus, enabling me to contribute my quota to the industrial development of the nation | en_US |
