Modelling Flooding sites around River Niger area of Onitsha town Nigeria using Remote Sensing and GIS Application[ ]


Increasing frequency and severity of flooding have caused tremendous damage in Onitsha area of Nigeria, requiring more efficient and effective way to reduce the risk and damage people face. In this study, the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the study area was used in consideration of terrain's influence on flooding of the town. The Compound Topographic Index (CTI) of the area was calculated to extract areas that represent wetness, which shows areas liable to flooding.

Knitted Fabric as a Formwork & Reinforcement for Shell structures [ ]


As per Frei Otto 'construction is the basis of all architecture. Every minimal construction is a natural construction. However it may in general be assumed that structures which are more economical in either use of material and energy were more likely than others to survive in the course of evolution'. Concrete shells were used extensively in the mid-twentieth century, but were used less as the complexity of the formwork required, using rigid materials became increasingly more costly .Fabric formwork can produce similarly efficient shapes with much greater ease. The use of fabric as formwork for doubly curved shells could take advantage of the great inherent strength of shells and their comparative lightness.Efficient shells carry load primarily through membrane forces . The absence of large bending forces keeps stresses low, reducing material demand. A shell’s structural performance is therefore dictated by its form, particularly its curvature. The fluidity of concrete allows these required geometries to be realised. Eventually in shell structures important aspect is surface and surface curvature. Knitted fabric is a better option of fabric formwork as they can be designed and constructed with appropriate selection of stiches,patterns,fibre type, loop count. Flexibilility , strength, in knitted fabric can vary by manipulating knitting patterns by 4 different variables at microlevel . Knitting has self organising behaviour, all the resultant surfaces created are minimal surfaces. Every form has inherent natural surface pattern .
