Description
Teenage pregnancy is a world disaster, and it has become a major concern to both developing and developed countries all over the world. Teenage pregnancy cases are very high in Kenya, and it seems to be increasing every day in our schools. It is a concern to all people in Kenya not leaving out politicians who have shown interest over it y coming out through media condemning the act of early pregnancy amongst our teenagers. Childbearing and early pregnancy is common in Kenya. Approximately 25 percent of Kenyan women give birth under the age of 18 years where ate this age children are still in schools and majorly secondary schools. The re-entry act of pregnant girls in the school system is also continuing to get criticized by society. Society discriminated pregnant girls in school and the young mothers who are back in school, for they say that they influence others in the act and promote teenage pregnancy in schools. This adolescent pregnancy continues everyday in schools because, after every school break, not less than three girls come back to school pregnant, so the question goes, who is responsible for these pregnancies? Are parents not watching over their children or schools should introduce another law that restricts girls in school? Therefore, this study is designed to investigate the impact of teenage pregnancy in the Nyacheki ward in Kisii County. A total sample of 50 respondents was used for the study. Questionnaire; observation and interview were used to collect data for the research. Looking at the effects often age pregnancy, it is clear that the girls face stigmatization, ridicule, and neglect from parents and teachers' abuse. The study also reveals that teenage pregnancy has a great effect on education and affects the girls' future and the economic development of a country. It also revealed that adolescent pregnancy also contributes to girls' poor performance in school and final exams. The study also showed that most underage mothers terminate their education for fear of shame, stigmatization, and ridicule from the school and society and being rated as ill-mannered children. The study also discover that the environment and media had a significant impact on early pregnancy among girl students in high schools. The study therefore suggests that teenage mothers should be given another chance in life. We should not judge them because others got it through rape and assault. They should be counselled by their guidance and counseling teacher to give them strength and hope of continuing with education and getting bright future. Counseling will also help in their job skills and psychosocial development that will help them after their schooling and life ahead.

STRUCTURAL AND ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF FOUR STOREY MULTI-SHOPPING COMMERCIAL BLOCK PROJECT REPORT
This project entitled “Structural design of four-story multi-shopping commercial block in Kisii Town”. The objective the research was to conduct a technical detail and study on the implementation of Structure design of proposed four story commercial building in Kisii Town in order to solve the problems of our country to fit in vision of land use. Therefore, conducting this research project could be a sustainable solution to the above-mentioned problems. During this research, the analysis of structural elements was made by combining manual analysis, ArchiCAD 18 & Atlantis software for providing architectural plans, arcGIS software for creating and using maps, compiling geographic data, analyzing mapped information, dynamic cone penetration test for determining allowable bearing capacity of the soil, PROKON software for analyzing and designing of structures. The architectural drawings, analysis and the design of all elements of structure, cross sections and reinforcements were calculated. The study revealed that building dimensions are (21.30m*25.60m) and the minimum requirements steel bar in slab at the top four steel bars of ten diameters (4Ø10mm/m), bottom three steel bars of eight diameters (3Ø8mm/m). Beam at top four steel bar of twenty five diameters (4Ø25mm), bottom (4Ø20mm). For the column ground floor (8Ø25mm), first floor (8Ø20mm), second floor (8Ø14mm) and last (4Ø12mm), stairs (4 Ø 12), foundation (5Ø16mm)

STRUCTURAL DESIGN OF MORDERN THREE STOREY HOUSE WITH ROOFTOP TERRACE PROJECT REPORT
This work explores the complexities and challenges of designing a three-storey modern house in Kisii Town, Kisii County. In response to rapid urbanization and the essential role of housing in Kisii County(World Bank, 2018;UN-Habitat 2018), there is an increasing demand for modern, sustainable, and community-oriented residential spaces. This study was conducted to help meet the need for modern housing in Kisii County, as the County faces many challenges in providing adequate and sustainable homes.
The project explains the design and modelling of a G+2, three-storey modern house using Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2024(Autodesk 2023), as it provides a clear vision through design, construction, and documentation. With the advancement of technology, the use of software to solve numerous problems in every technical discipline problems that formerly took a long time has become quite common. As a result, the use of software technology in civil engineering to analyze, design, and predict the behavior of structures before their lifespan has increased dramatically over the last decade(Kasthurirangan, 2021).
The research focused on designing a modern house with a rooftop terrace, taking into account practical use, visual appeal, safety, and economic viability. Archi CAD 28(Graphisoft, 2023) and Lumion 10(Act-3D, 2020) software were used for producing the architectural design, while Robot Structural Professional was employed for structural design and analysis, following the British Code as the design standar

STRUCTURAL AND ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF TWO COMMERCIAL BUILDING BLOCK PROJECT REPORT
This is a project for construction of two storey commercial building block. This project work “structural design of G+2 commercial building at Nyamache Sub County_ Kisii County sector is a part of fulfillment of advanced diploma as awarded of Kisii National polytechnic (KNP). It contains with conception, structural design which provides proper communication to all of users, this project gives more information about the design and analysis of commercial building. The final project report contains five chapters that are: General Introduction, Literature review, research methodology, system design, analysis and implementation and then Conclusion and Recommendation.
This project report also has been compiled referred to books of different authors and by using equation provided in codes of practice like; British standard used in design of the commercial building. The analysis of each structure members starts with evaluation of all loads that are expected to be carried by structure including self-weight. The structure design of this project detail, beam, slab, stair, column, and foundation by BS8110.
Based on result, the detailed plans of this.
