DESIGN OF FLOOD-RESILIENT LOW-COST HOUSING USING ELEVATED FOUNDATIONS AND PERMEABLE MATERIALS IN FLOOD-PRONE AREAS OF EDO STATE
DESIGN OF FLOOD-RESILIENT LOW-COST HOUSING USING ELEVATED FOUNDATIONS AND PERMEABLE MATERIALS IN FLOOD-PRONE AREAS OF EDO STATE. ABSTRACT Flooding poses a severe and recurrent threat to communities in Edo State, Nigeria, particularly in Benin City and surrounding low-lying areas, where climate change, rapid urbanization, poor drainage, and impervious surfaces intensify pluvial and riverine inundation. Low-cost […]
ASSESSMENT AND OPTIMIZATION OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON SELECTED SITES IN BENIN CITY
ASSESSMENT AND OPTIMIZATION OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON SELECTED SITES IN BENIN CITY ABSTRACT Rapid urbanization in Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria, has intensified construction and demolition (C&D) waste generation, creating serious environmental, health, and economic challenges. Current practices predominantly involve open dumping, roadside accumulation, burning, and landfilling, driven by limited recycling […]
