Reference excerpt

Kitalya Maximum Security Prison is a maximum security prison for both men and women in Uganda.

Location The construction of the prison was completed in 2020 and is located in the village of Kitalya, in Busiro County, Wakiso District, off the Kampala-Mityana Road. It is approximately 62 kilometres (39 mi) northwest of Luzira Maximum Security Prison, which was before 2020 Uganda's only maximum-security prison. Kitalya prison is about 54 kilometres (34 mi) northwest of the central business district of Kampala, the capital and largest city in Uganda. The coordinates of Kitalya Maximum Security Prison are 0°26'13.0"N, 32°13'36.0"E (Latitude:0.436944; Longitude:32.226667).

Overview Ambitious Construction Company Limited was awarded the construction contract, at a price of Sh18.3 billion (approx. US$5.5 million in July 2016). The new prison was intended to relieve Luzira Maximum Security Prison, which was congested. Construction was expected to conclude in 2018. Physical construction was concluded in February 2020. However, before the facility received its first inmate, the senior staff who were going to operate the prison were expected to tour similar facilities abroad, to learn first-hand how such facilities were run. The facility also needed to be equipped with furniture, bedding and security equipment, including closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras and monitoring equipment. Kitalya was reported to have more than six layers of security, physical, electronic and otherwise.

Facilities The new prison has common dormitory wards, 30 individual cells, a medical wing with inpatient facilities. It also has a kitchen equipped with energy-saving technology. Other amenities include a contact visitors' room and isolation rooms for contagious diseases. It has an array of recreational facilities, including a soccer field, a basketball court, a volleyball court, and a tennis court. It sits on 5 acres (2 ha) of land, in a rural setting.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Kitalya Maximum Security Prison

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Kitalya Maximum Security Prison claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Kitalya Maximum Security Prison before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Kitalya Maximum Security Prison ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Kitalya Maximum Security Prison

In research: Kitalya Maximum Security Prison appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Kitalya Maximum Security Prison in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Kitalya Maximum Security Prison is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2020 establishments in Uganda, Buildings and structures completed in 2020, Buildings and structures in Uganda, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Kitalya Maximum Security Prison outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
