Abstract
The purpose of this manual was to design sprit level at Doreni College to make level

and smooth construction column , wall, diagonal member ,horizontal member ,

vertical member ,slab and screed. This technology can be used to increasing work

at time, to decreasing worker. The design was prepared by using AUTO Cad 2D

view, front view, top view and any other detail drawing was specified. The project

also used to prevent to strati 90/( degree ) improve the quality. The materials that

used to prepare sprit level include wood ,timber, and etc. was specified.
Introduction
1. Sprit level a tool is used to spread out and strait before it

has taken it’s initial set. Normally a large timber tool that

is affixed to hand poles and is pushed back and forth across the . A

concrete column and wall is a tool used to finish a concrete surface by

making it smooth. Sprit level is used after the surface has been made level

using a screed. In addition to removing surface imperfections, sprit level is

to will compact the concrete and as preparation for further steps.

1. Brief description of the technology

The project design in our TVET college to transferring technology to micro and

small enterprise (SME) is Work of construction production, adopting this

technology is beneficiary to familiar or practice dismantling the import product

(100%copying ) the trainee must know the strategy and be producer of the project

2. Project description
The sprit level and Hand Tools are used to smooth or strait and improve the

surface of the concrete. Just twist the long handle and swivel head angles for

pushing and pulling across the surface

The project is made up of timber & wood material structure. it has different

components and operated manually, in built with easy assembly’s parts, this has

been designed specifically to be constructed in the work place that have only a

basic construction capability, such as those that are to be found in construction

working area,
standard metric size of timber are specified in this project details .but other

sizes can be substituted according to availability, providing some consideration is

given to the strength and durability which the components require the machine,

tools and equipment that the necessary to construct this machine are, plane

machine, ,and their equipment ,drilling machine ,sanding machine ,and hand general

tools such as hacksaw ,files, tape, rules, protractor engineering square ,chisel etc.

the machine is a very use in addition to any construction enabling new and better

products to be made in industry and workshop.

Smooth/leveling work materials, making machine is a simple and low-cost machine

for leveling machine and makes the necessary shape.

The number of plate metal, plain bar that can be produced per day is limited by

the skill of the person work on the machine. Factors like not working hard these

tend to prevent the development of improved technology, and time-consuming, and

laborious tasks.

As my decided to design and produce locally this smooth / leveling work tool

making tool since it was been proven successfully at was already introduction in the

market, as improving technologies to manufacturing sector as labor saving devices

and as means of generating income and allow the worker operates faster and with

less strain. Micro-enterprises would be one of the beneficiaries in my project as it

will be successful and functional as completed.

Conditions may vary in various developing countries, but have same thing in common

that is to save time and with ease in operation. We are hoping that our micro-

enterprise, as we designed and manufacture the said project will be benefited even

with different culture and level of acceptance. Whenever, the leveling technology

exists, it can help to bring appropriate

Technology and pave the way for other related machinery or appropriate

technologies that would be helpful and can complement with the other sector. as

we ensure as well to use our skill and to master our competence

3. Statement of the problem

The purpose of this study was to determine the needs and the slowly uses of

Technology in Ethiopia and also to show the preparation sample of simple value

chain.

4. Objective
The purpose of strait or leveling wall,column concrete is to level ridges and fill

voids left by the screening operation. It should also slightly embed the column

,wall ,horizontal slab and vertical column to make subsequent finishing operations

easier.

4. 1 General objective

 The study will be focusing on main actors (MSEs, privet owners, NGOs and

governmental organizations) construction work to be persistently competent

in the market through qualitative, on time and low cost products with their

effective and efficient production and organizational system finally they

became active participant for the development of our country.

4.2 Specific objective

 To identifies the task and responsibilities of main actors and stack holders.

 To aware the relationship of participants in the value chain and recognize

the gap or bottle neck to improve the value on each activities.

  Training or skill (human ware) documents (info ware) introducing better

technology than before and organize them for coordination and managing

merely.

 To use all the benefits’ of the study for succession achievement of the goal.

5. Mission
 To design and fabrication according to leveling tools and to distribute the

quality product and fair price Good quality and with low delivery time satisfy

customer.

6. Significance of the study

Since smooth/leveling tools is basic equipment in construction and which involves

increasing the capacity of the structure level it will create job opportunity for

SME and to generate income the beneficiaries form this project the following

parties are come in to beneficial:-

 Macro and small enterprise

 Individual micro enterprise

 Individual persons.

7. Scope of the project

The project will focus on the design and smooth of a construction, a hand-operated

machine for straight and level the plate metal parts by flat and making

smooth/level with appropriate shape pattern. It easy operations provide ease to

the operations increasing workers’ likewise, the project may provide easier

availability to any government, private TVET colleges and institute even macro and
small enterprise since it’s a locally developed tools with ease in operations and

easier to maintain.

9. Design
The sprit level design takes into consideration as well as the Type and shape

construction work given. The design of the sprit level is determined by the client

interest, depend local material and environmental situation. We should understand

our client attention maybe customer interest is rectangle, round, square and oval

shape etc. Detail drawing with all designs parameters Sub assembling drawing with

detail part list. Three dimensional drawing with it’s measurement. It can move

easily from place to place

17. The Process of bull floats Production up to Customer Hand

Site Selection→ Design → Preparing Site→ marketing → material Selection→

purchasing material → Transportation→ preparing store →measuring → cutting

→production→ Assembling or Joining → Finishing → Supply to market

18. Conclusion
This manual explains the details of the sprit level and I decide which have been

yields through the application of this bull sprit level. This sprit level was design to

ease solve the problem of construction from the Doreni town SMS. The absence of

training on the sprit level in Doreni technic College had the effect of making

construction Doreni town for the last few years. Based on decide from the self
about the stated above problem, I comes up with solution to design sprit level to

make construction in the Doreni town for customer satisfaction.

19. Recommendations
As my discussion in the privies section; the proposal / manual strongly puts forward

the following recommendation.

 The Doreni technic College management should be facilitating to production

of this sprit level technology on the specified SMS which is in Doreni town

and local.

 The Doreni town SMS should be training depending sprit level technology.

 All SMS should be use sprit level for the purpose it intended only, which is

for project.
