Construction of Office Table and Chairs
The aim of this project was to construct one office table and four chairs.
In the course of this project the length of plank used was 12” and we used about 4 number (mahogany) of 1” thickness, ¾ plywood of 1 sheet of 1” thickness, as well as ¼” plywood of ½ and glue 1 tin wenner 1 rod, foam ½ sheet. Fabrics 4 years, spraying materials and 21b of nail were utilized to effect the construction of office table and chairs.
The materials were marked out to the required sizes, cut, folded, fited, assembled, nail, mort iced and then spraying it finally to prevent corrosion attack
There are the necessary constructional procedure steps adopted in the project. The accuracy and precision with which the construction steps and consequently, the assemblage of the component parts greatly enhanced our aim of constructing a suitable equipment for use of one table and four chairs.
The aim of constructing the table and the chair is to enable chemical Engineering department as future Engineer to know and also learn how to construct an office table or chairs and the essence of it. The cost of production of the office table and chairs as at 7th August, 2005 is N21,000.00
A table is a piece of furniture consisting of a flat top supported on one or more legs. There are difference kinds of tables such as laboratory table, office table, dinning table, kitchen table etc. Office tables are mainly used when recording documenting certain events in the office. For instance a lecturer who is taken records of student examination, queeze must make use of office table/chair.
It could be made with different type of material such as wood, steel and some metals. In the construction of this project a mahogany wood as a material were used to construct the office table/chair. Wood as a material of construction has advantage over some metals. It is not attacked by termites or simple chemicals, which last longer than other metals. Since wood cannot be affected, the material kept on it will be saved. Metal are known to be corrode by the effect of a moisture and some chemicals but can be prevented by preventive measure like painting and coating of the table/chair during construction
Wood used for the construction was hard and resistant to termites and simple like chemicals as dil(HCL) and some base solution. A modern office table of standard sixe could contrain materials like books and some office documents.
A research was done so as to obtain the best design with the desired type of the structural material for the table to maintain its quality for a longer period of time without having any fault or change. Hence it is important to produce materials that will last longer and the quality to be of great importance in the construction of the office table chair. The various parts is arranged and form is such a way that it provides an efficient and economical procedure to the construction problem.
