ABSTRACT

This project was aimed at providing an Auxilary water supply in the Department of Agricultural and Bio-Environmental Engineering. A reconuaissance survey was carried out to determine the route of the pipeline of which white diamond pipe 1 inch with length of 5.5 meter was used. The procedure for the installation are excavation of trench, laying of pipes and mounting of overhead tank. The installation was carried out with the use of a digger and shovel. The pipes were laid along with some fitting to cling the pipes to the centrifugal pump. While the supply pipe from the water sources was connected to the inlet of the centifrigal pump. Testing was carried out to check if there was any leakage. It was well comfirm that no any leakage along the auxiliary water supply and the pump was connected. The total amount spend was N73.920.
