the painting aspect in the completion of block laying/ concreting workshop

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1     General Background of the project

          Building construction has been existing since olden days and different material are used for construction of the structure. But nowadays, buildings are constructed with blocks. Bricks, timber etc despite the fact that any material used to construct, the structure is still far attractive i.e, (Dull) but technology have advance and bring one of important finishes in to existence which is Paint.      (Areinu. 2015) Paint is a liquid substance or mastic composition, that after apply to a substrate its turn to a solid film. It is used to protect colour and to provide texture to an object, paint can be used or purchased in many colours and in many different types, such as water color, synthetic. e.t.c. (Lascaux 2004). There are many purpose for using paint in a building, this includes: To increase the visual appeal of building surface from termite attack and increase the surface durability. However, in building, there are various part apply to paint on, such as: interior wall, ceiling exterior, wall surface, wooden surface and metal.

          Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment color or other medium to a solid surface (support base ) the medium is commonly applied to the base with a brushes, machines etc. paint play a critical role in construction so in case of these it cannot be overlook under normal condition.

1.2     Need for the project report

          The need of this project is to make the workshop attractive and to increase it value. Not only that it will make the workshop comfortable for the student during practical

1.3     Aim and Objectives of the project

          The aim of this project is to carry out the painting aspect in the completion of block laying/ concreting workshop. To achieve the above aim the following objectives must be considered.

i. To identify the type of paint to be used for the work

ii. To identify the equipment to be used in carrying out the painting.

iii. To access the surface(s) to be painted.

1.4     Scope of the study

          The project report would be' focusing on the painting of plastered wall of concrete workshop, wooden frames and metal doors.

1.5     Limitation of the Project

This project is limited to painting alone due to the followmg reasons.

i. Insufficient of funds

ii. Inadequate of equipment

iii. Lack of goods quality material

1.6 Justification of the project

The reason for this project is to practicalize what has been taught in painting during the course of study as building technology student.

1.7     Definition of operational terms

Pigment: this is an essential ingredient it provide capacity and give paint its color. The pigment is solid substances disperse though out the coating to impart it a color.

Binder: it holds the entire paint ingredient together and helps the paint adhere to surface. Solvent and thinner: is the liquid component of the paint, either water based or solvent based is engineered to evaporate quickly and gives paint its consistency. That is it makes the paint soft and thin.

Drier: The drier accelerate drying forming oxygen from the atmosphere and transfer it to the vehicle. However the drier reduce the elasticity of paint

Accelerator: Additive to paint to speed the cure of a coating.

Additives: Chemicals added to paint to improve create certain specific characteristic i.e. flex agent.

Catalyst: Additives to paint to speed the core of a coating.

Cellulose: Natural polymer or resin from cottonseed oil to make paint coating.

Durability: How well a film weather ad last .

Double coat: One single coat of “paint followed immediately by another, (Ruben, 2010).

Blushing: occurring where a primer or surface does not totally fill a sandsracth or imperfection.

Bubbles: Air or solvent trapped in a film caused by poor atomization during spraying.
