Yesterday, I was at the 25^th inaugural academic lecture organized by the premier university in Nigeria where I listened to the structural engineer, Professor Joel George Chinwah as he explains the three categories of structures that civil engineering has devoted attention especially that has elicited his research attention in the last forty years.

Professor Chinwah, who was delivering lecture on the topic; ‘Structures, from mundane to cosmic', listed the area of attention of his years of studies that included, Nature, Man-made and cosmic structures.

The skeleton of humans, animals and the trees enable their body to move. The rib and joint bones function as columns to sustain body weight and other loads it is subjected to.

The different skeletal structure are connected by intricate system of joints to enable the human body to carry out a combination of forces referred to as compression or tension that can influence bending, movement and torques.

The systems of joints perform biological springs to transform man into a complex multi degree, lumped mass structural dynamic springs and mass system capable to make humans perform amazing feats with ease that include dancing and exercise. This skeletal structure he said are also found in animal, birds, and fishes. Such is the marvel and genius of the great structural engineers; the supreme intelligence.

As I sat listen attentively, I was able to grasp that trees and plants that provide food to human, birds and animals as well as protect from the harsh weather, perform structural functions when they are processed as wood products.

They are then used as structural elements in the design and construction of buildings, bridges, roads and pavement.

The variety and diversity of the natural structural forms, serve to sustain all types of structural loading, of self weight, load imposed by animals, .birds, wind, ground movement and temperature load.

He said, the last forty years study of earthquake characteristics and oil seismic activities on block walls structures has proved that applying the stress path failure criterion to brick works would create a response to make brick shear walls that are subject to pre-compression and horizontal shear load are capable to produce failure pattern similar to those that results from earthquake.

The study, he said unveiled the potential of the simulation techniques for a realistic study of the effect of possible earthquake and seismic activities on masonry walls. This Niger Delta region in Nigeria has a likelihood of occurrence such cracks because of the intensity of oil exploration activities that has brought the region under critical survey. This would matter if similar structures in the region suffer with scanty or virtually no records of actual earthquake.

On the area of cosmic structures, Professor Chinwah said that there is an extra-ordinary information about the universe as recorded by Ashayana Deane who represented a pro-human inter-dimensional group called Guardian Alliance. This is where interstellar multi-dimensional and inter-time species and races work together to assist in the evolution of culture in the universe.

He said that human race resides in planet earth with inception from Turaneusiam race of 12 primary sub-racial divisions. They are in Alanians and Luminian strains and lived together on E-DEN for one million years. When Luminians was forced out by Alanian because of dangerous experimentation, they moved into uninhabited areas they named MU.

Years later, there was Tera cataclysm known in history as fall of man.When this happened, the 550 millions years old rescue plan was dusted and implemented by Palaidorians using a morphogenetic sphere=Amenti, servicing as a bridge from the past to the future cycles.

Now, there are inter-dimensional races known as Zota, Dracos, Drakon and Anunnaki who have involved plethora of hostile races called THE INTRUDERS. They are opposed to evolution of the Earth and its humanity. The opposition has continued to grow in strength and number so that the earth and humanity could be attacked and exterminated someday. Only the super structural designer has the power to control these activities.
