1.0 INTRODUCTION
Wood has a natural beauty which makes it desirable for cabinet making and quality interior design. Wood has structural qualities which meets the need of Wood from deciduous trees is called and those from conifer trees I called This nomenclature does not refer to the actual or weight of the wood. The physical properties of include: color, grain pattern and surface defects. Most qualities are not seen until the tree is cut into The moisture content of the wood has significant it when the moisture content ofthe wood begins to Shrinkage in lumbar varies according to the section and how it was cut. The critical time to maintain is during processing. Working qualities include wood reaction and density. The density of weight per unit volume. The denser a wood and Stronger it becomes. Most construction (project) Involves the use of the knowledge of 5 and is worthy to note that any successful should be acquainted with woodwork and its The wood used for this project were purchased from a timber market under the strict guidance of my able , while the dimensioning, cutting, fitting, finishing other works were carried-out in the woodwork
of my department. In our society today, wood become one of the most useful materials in our daily which is utilized in many of man’s day-to-day. Wood according to Oxford advanced learner’s defined wood as the hard material that the trunk branches tree are made up of. Some of the areas in which this important material could be used are in wood works such as in the construction of a wooden bookshelf which is the basis of this project, making of furniture, wood carving, wood floor, paper making and also serves as fuel. Materials known, yet it plays a modem day life. Wood can be said to be the part of a tree. A living tree basically has the main are the trunk, the roots and the crown which of the branches and the leaves. The roots are in the soil to support the entire tree and also nutrients and water for the growth of the tree.
the trunk of the most important part for the works, paper production material, weapons, artworks and so on. Wood generally are hard tissue and a natural composite of cellulose fibers are strong in tension) embedded in matrix of lignin resists compression. In the real sense, wood is as secondary xylem in the stem of trees. In a tree, it transfers water and nutrients to the leaves and photosynthetic parts.
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Our society today timber has become one of the main materials in our daily activities especially, in construction. It is utilized in many man’s day to need. Timber according to oxford advanced learners ary could be said to be the wood prepared for use in and carpentry. And some of the useful areas in this important material could be used are in wood such as in the making of Bookshelf (which is the basis this project), making furniture (wood carving, wood used as fuel, used in making paper production etc. is one of the oldest materials known, yet it plays a role in modern day life it can be said to be a structural part of a tree. A living basically has its main parts as the roots, the trunk and crown which is made up of the branches and the leaves, root is embedded in the soil. To support the entire Tree also absorb food for the growth of the Tree. However, wood gotten from the tree is the most important part of construction ,work, paper productions, production of ols , weapons , packaging , artworks ,Woods are generally are fibrous tissue and a natural composition of cellulose (which are strong in tension) embedded in a matrix of which resists compression in the strict, since timber is as the secondary xylem in stems of trees .in a tree ,this transfers vvater and nutrients to the leaves other growing tissues and has a support function timbering plants to reach large sizes or to stand up themselves. There are usually a higher occurrence of damage usually associated with life important file, books and mails as well as other personal organizational credentials, home properties such as utensils and other belongings. This has posed a problem faced in our society today. It is therefore to research and develop ideas to solve this facing us, In respect to these main purpose of is to expose the people on the importance and
of timber in construction shelf)in order to minimize the rate of damages to our and document and at the same time utilize our
inisolving the problem of our society. (Loss of document to termite and some other book buyers).
1.2 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
To expose the student know the importance of timber especially in Engineering fields and also the practical aspects of timber work.
1.3 SCOPES OF STUDY
Although there are many ways, and materials that can be used in carrying out this project, for example metals, framed work with rubber and plastic of higher strength etc. This project is basically on the use of timber in making and constructing a shelf to limit damages and ensure better storage of properties (books).
1.4 DEFINITION OF TERMS
